lyrics

Murderer.
The pain I’ve caused and the agony to those I knew.
Dispossessed anathema – rotten through and through.
Hunted down with a vengeance, but tell me whose hunting who.
Come to me my victims, for this is what I do.

Murderer they shouted, accusing fingers never tire.
Heaping ceaseless fuel upon their righteous fire.
It is I that they are fuelling, I am the fire and the creed.
I am the only god left, you live so I can feed.

Petrified by a fear of the night, the children beg and weep.
‘till the day I die they will never sleep.
More and more go missing, every goddamn day.
I’m a curse and a living nightmare; a name you dare not say.

Murderer they shouted, with their cross on chain.
Praying to their god to help them ease the pain.
Pure music to my ears, the supple sweet torment.
I am the only god left, in my name you will repent.

Murderer.
And I do it again.

Oh sweet odium.
For the things I’ve done.
Precious life is wrung.

Spectral figure stalking in the mist.
Feel the dagger longing for the twist.
Scream for mercy.
Beg for your rotten life.
Scarlet ribbons flow.
Give it up and feed the knife.

Murderer they shouted, as they go insane.
Their feeble minds fall to pieces, seeing their children slain.
Their prayers fall on deaf ears, the supple sweet torment.
I am the only god here, and in my name you will repent.
Murderer.
I am the only god here, and in my name you will repent.

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
