Lingchi
Dismemberment
Upon an alter of lies
Nerve-endings
Separated from an infant's spine
A mother screaming and crying
What happened to my child?
The traitor stands on piles of dreams
That lay in rot and decay
The fragile mind cannot keep the demons away
So pray that I'll never find you
And do the same
Emerge
From a cocoon of negligence
Shameful hands stitched sin, dissonance
Strip me of all remnants of what made me
Human
Cut by Cut
Caught in an endless cycle
Adrift in a fever
Dreams
Of those who care for me
They can't save me now
My skin is no longer my own
A vessel that houses fucking monster
Fall at feet of sobbing mothers
Once unfettered dreams left to be smothered
The eyes of a father who can't seem see
As I claw my way back into humanity
There is no god nor king who can bear the sight
Of a once-broken child grieving his life
(Grieving his life)
Carve away
My mangled mask to expose my dripping ravenous maw
Separate
From the storm now it is in turn time to be deformed
Cut by cut
Caught in an endless cycle
Inducing a fever
Dreams
Of those who scream lingchi
God can't save you
There will be beauty
In setting your body aflame
I'll be the last thing you see
As I bathe in fucking blood
Upon an alter of lies
Nerve-endings
Separated from an infant's spine
A mother screaming and crying
What happened to my child?
The traitor stands on piles of dreams
That lay in rot and decay
The fragile mind cannot keep the demons away
So pray that I'll never find you
And do the same
Emerge
From a cocoon of negligence
Shameful hands stitched sin, dissonance
Strip me of all remnants of what made me
Human
Cut by Cut
Caught in an endless cycle
Adrift in a fever
Dreams
Of those who care for me
They can't save me now
My skin is no longer my own
A vessel that houses fucking monster
Fall at feet of sobbing mothers
Once unfettered dreams left to be smothered
The eyes of a father who can't seem see
As I claw my way back into humanity
There is no god nor king who can bear the sight
Of a once-broken child grieving his life
(Grieving his life)
Carve away
My mangled mask to expose my dripping ravenous maw
Separate
From the storm now it is in turn time to be deformed
Cut by cut
Caught in an endless cycle
Inducing a fever
Dreams
Of those who scream lingchi
God can't save you
There will be beauty
In setting your body aflame
I'll be the last thing you see
As I bathe in fucking blood
