Saint Vitus

n they cry about
Their poor existence
The only one who hears them
Reigns in Hell

This rise of mysery
Is never ending
It feeds upon
Corrupted souls
I stand within its wake
And watch the suffering
As the hand of pain
Keeps control
Why do I scream at them
They never listen
Why do I beat my head against the wall
I made a simple plan
They complicate it
Now they're near the edge
Let them fall


2. The Bleeding Ground


Echoes of screaming
That fell on deaf ears
Chaos still reigns
Fueled by the tears
Of children in anguish
Their lives torn apart
Begging for help from
Cold black hearts

Heaven can't help us
Hell puts us down
That's what it's like on
The bleeding ground

Gasping for air
We can actually see
Government testing
Says it's ok to breathe
A hot oily resin
Covers the trees
Our moans of despair
Float away on the breeze

Useless protectors
Only slap hands
Let the animals
Destroy the land
Once we were cleansed
By natures' wrath
Then without choice
We're back on the wrong path

4. Blessed Night


Cross my palm with silver light
My steed is strong my sword is sharp
Upon us now this blessed night
I will heed the message of my star
Priestess queen will grace my throne
With the wisdom of eternity
Warrior king trusts her alone
To guide our planets destiny
Blessed night, this blessed night
Her beauty is as timeless as
Dark forlorn galaxies
The sapphire pendant on her breast
Holds the secrets of the black
Bathe my heart in bloodborne lust
Starborn bloodline's warrior tribe
Cross my blade if you must
I defend my realm with your lives!
Blessed night, this blessed night
Her beauty is as timeless as
Swirling cosmic ecstasy
Her flesh as pale as our moon glows
With wisdom of eternity
Cross my palm with crystal light
My sword is sharp my steed is strong
Upon us now this blessed night
For my queen, for my star


5. The Waste Of Time


Wipe the sweat from your eyes
A new war has begun
The rules are old as time
For a game never won
The tribes are rising
The hourglass has begun
All morals forgotten
All the talking done

Ragged fists in the air
Black horizons appear
Bodies are rising
The final end draws near

Bloody scalps are worn
As trophies of pain
Horrors marching
Crushing all in the way
Wretched are the voices
That summon death from the sea
They drown themselves
As the world still bleeds

Smoking ashes remain
Disease feeding the cause
Mother nature weeps
Everything is finally gone
The endless night has arrived
Warriors bow their heads
In a moment of silence
The last prayer is said


6. Dependence


Woke up sick, again today
A new gash on my face
Can't remember what I did
Now the pain sets in

Don't know if it's night or day
It doesn't really matter
I just need a little crumb
Anything to keep you numb

Woke up sick, again today
It doesn't really matter
My end is here, nothing else to do
I depended on you


7. Withdrawal
