An Infidel's Dissent

Brought forth in apathy
 A flesh embedded innocence
 To beg forgiveness at the altar;
 Victim left untold
 Probationary litigation, condemned for wrongful deed
 Sentence so prodigious, for which I cannot plea
 A shadow follows me as I take my final steps
 I try to reach oblivion before I'm put to rest
 The nature of sorrow yet to be exposed
 Torture based on my beliefs, I walk into unknown
 Black, death, the crow released
 The lucid calling of my suffering
 I cry for help but the noise locks out
 My fate at his fingers, my mouth sewn shut
 ♪
 I've lived my life, swearing to no other.
 Carved myself through the test of time, no purpose for a father.
 No crutch to be believed in.
 This wake in sanity, I realize, so bastardized, is all I ever needed
 Lay waste upon the king
 This cursed betrayal unlawfully transposed
 A broken, an empty, deceitful vow
 ♪
 Won't bow down to the king that never was
 Death brings me to my knees
 ♪
 Pray to false prophets in these times of need
 Lies turn to filth and dirt
 My hollow sin eating the rest of me
 A devious harbinger for an assemblage of fools
 Death brings me to my knees
 Pray to false prophets in these times of need
 Bleakness encircles my existence
 I bestow in blasphemy as he approaches
 Devour me as I fall to my knees
 Incapacitated for my wrongful, my wrongful deeds
 Apathy spreading like disease
 Black, death, the crow released
 The lucid calling of my suffering
 I cry for help but the noise locks out
 My fate at his fingers, my mouth sewn shut
