about

Taken from the album "Mourning After" released 20th February 2012 on Holy Roar/Distort/Shock.

lyrics

Every night you take your love to your grave. You sleep with one eye open as you count your numbered days. Frozen cold is the blood in your veins; years ago you had a soul, now you can never be saved. You fear you've lost forever what it felt to be alive. There's no place for you
in heaven so you stalk forsaken skies; condemned to walk and haunt the earth forever alone, you're a stranger amongst friends this place will never be your home.Howl at the moon, we've watched you take flight.
For years we never saw it happening right before our eyes. Stealing broken hearts like a thief in the night - I know you need this like the air you breathe you fucking parasite. You're a ladykiller, twinkle in your eyes: broken windows to a hopeless soul, you'll languish in the afterlife. You suck the life from your victims, come sunrise your gone; the cold light of day corrodes your flesh exposing you for what you are. You're a monster, the stuff of bad dreams, you feed off of others nightmare you make my flesh creep. You're a vampire, a bloodsucker, a leech, a bottom feeder, a vulture, son of a bitch. And just like the living dead you face reflection with terror. There's blood on your hands and a corpse in your bed, welcome to your own worst nightmare: reality. Your self-perception is warped like a carnival mirror, your introspection's distorted through a prism of terror. You wear your love like a burial shroud. Entomb your secrets from the world, six feet under ground. Your howls of anguish become too loud to ignore, condemned to languish for eternity in purgatory's stranglehold. Reflect; gaze back into the abyss. In the end the void becomes your mistress. Surrender to her cold embrace, lament your heartless existence.
