Lamia

(I wish to sleep)
(I wish to sleep)

Aggression bottled up from past transgressions
Disfigured, tormented by the pain
Forever haunted by my heinous actions
A victim, forced by godly hands

Doomed to endlessly walk this earth
Bound to sleeplessness
The devourers curse (the devourers curse)

I wish only to sleep (I wish only to sleep)
Just for a moment, a sense of relief
If albeit so brief
To break free from this grief

None of this, granted to me
Gouge my eyes out, to set myself free
I feed therefor I am
It's the will of the gods
Put your blame on them

Obsession fills the void of past depression
Configured to feast on innocence
I gown the serpent's skirt
To be, released upon this earth

I wish only to sleep (I wish only to sleep)
Just for a moment, a sense of relief
If albeit so brief
To break free from this grief
If albeit so brief
Release me from this grief

None of this, granted to me
Gouge my eyes out, to set myself free
Devour the innocent
A feast of blood, no sense of repent

I feed, therefore I am
It's the will of the gods
Put your blame on them
