Fed To The Lions - The Autumn Offering

I shade myself into the backlight of a room

My shadow apes my movements.

The needle and the spoon

Now I can’t sleep without going numb, so many nightmares forming

Left alone, with no force for resistance

Don’t you dare tell anyone

Raped, abused, and shaken

Dark-minded maturation

Closed fist domination

(I'm still alive)

Cold vengeance, just for fun

Sickle to brains the sum

Gut string violins, dark movement begins

Closing haunted hymns

I’ll stab your eyes I’ll tear you apart

Left in a unmarked burial mound

Quartered and bound to the corpse of a pig

You’ll be together underground

The scenes replay, haunting me again

The killer and the wound, bound in an endless dance

So tell me how the f*ck am I supposed to move on?

Please tell me how to forgive those who took my youth away

I prayed to a God that never was

My screams fell on deaf ears

I’m alone with my time in hell

If I can’t die then please let me sleep

Sad little man, born of sin

Blood dripping from your blade

Ask your God why you’re alive

You only wanted to be saved

No salvation for the rapist priest, so many lies, so many truths to bend
