Spawn

The priest came to see me today before sunrise
I asked for a reason he wouldn't explain to me
He said that my stubborn head had made my heart blind
He grabbed my hand, prayed to his god in my name
I still can't believe all the reasons he came here
I'm not to account as god's beloved child, no more
He said I'm a good man but evil's within me
And something inside me is turning me wild and so

He pierced my skin
With laurel leaves
And silent watched me bleed
He stared at me
And as I screamed
I felt it all begin

I'm a son of the devil
Just a spawn of his lies
His lies

The devil came forth but I wouldn't believe him
He's only a man there is nothing to fear for me
Now I see my errors I beg you forgive me please
I thought nothing of it when I sold my soul away
But time told me lies and I fell to its playing
I'm held by the merciless clutches of treachery
I had no intention of handing myself to him
So father confess me for my sins I must repent

He soaked my skull
In holy water
And it burned inside
Was it a ghost
What had I lost
But then I realized

I'm a son of the devil
Just a spawn of his lies
His lies

I'm a son of the devil
Just a spawn of his lies
His lies
His lies
His lies
