MASTER RECORDING LYRICS
FONT:
A twisted state of mind, torn between two worlds
One of which the new me hates and the one that’s coming true
The power is unleashed, they perish at my gaze
But am I really in control or am I just a slave
Oh!
I called upon this god to deliver unto me
To grant what I desire he brought me to my knees
He turned his back on me and filled me with his lies
Ask and I received – damnation was the price
I signed my name in blood, didn’t read the fine print
Now I’m just a puppet god for the devil’s own descent
Bound and shackled here forever damned a slave
Fallen bloody tears can’t wash the pain away
All at once it’s clear to me
Damnation and destiny
A slave to darkness shall I be
Damnation and destiny
And so I must repent or will I be destroyed
Will the one that lives in me release me from this lie?
And will the wrath of god have mercy on my soul?
Or humiliate me, desecrate me, like his only son?
All at once it’s clear to me
Damnation and destiny
A slave to darkness shall I be
Damnation and destiny
