Pride
Escarion
Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
From the ashes I arise And from the splintered stems of the earth I return With knowledge through struggle Triumphant through suffering The hierarchy of hypocrites and harlots Feeding the starving their lies Forever holding onto nothing Desires and dreams of the heart An empty well to thy idol A fountain of opportunity for thy enemy Up on the cross I had the most euphoric illusions of grandeur Visions one cannot express Through pathetic systems of language Witness a splinter as it festers into a terminal wound Oh Rise! Thou that cursed me As lightning fell from heavens Let the children believe Thy destroyer of nations! When rotten is the fruit of thy seed Recruiting the weak To indoctrinate the congregation of sheep Is this thy divine justice? O, compassionate one? The pages of disillusion Corrupt the foundations of humanity Up on the cross I had the most euphoric illusions of grandeur Visions one cannot express Through pathetic systems of language For I see through humanity The blood outweighs the soil Witness a splinter as it festers into a terminal wound The insects swarm To feed on the carcass Of their God Discarded shrines littered with bones The alter collapsed The pews empty Paint the picture Alone My greatest sin is echoed in the mirror Hung on the walls In-between my fingers Locked behind the flesh Bone and blood Yet radiating out with a silent aura The deceit is blasphemy When the pride of thy holiness Is rape and treachery Such is thy legacy
