Escape Artist - Arsis

Take hold and feel the flames that we control, this hell can feed our shame and

Cleanse the soul

And though I choose to walk this path

And face the plague of reason’s wrath

The graven songs and tortured words

Of a thousand liars shall be my bible

The art of self denial

A bloody hangman’s trial

All ways to praise the works

Of the escape artist

This cold resistance cannot fail me now

It holds the pleasures sick perfection won’t allow

And though all self has been denied

I’ve reached the level few have tried

And at the side of the beast

I am seated for the famine feast

The art of self denial

A bloody hangman’s trial

All ways to praise the works

Of the escape artist

Theses eyes are longing for release

Yet the coldness follows me

These eyes are longing for release

This is famine

The art of self denial

A bloody hangman’s trial

All ways to praise the works

Of the escape artist

These eyes are longing for release

Yet the coldness follows me

These eyes are longing for release

This is famine
