lyrics

DEVOUT; This life I lead in sanctity PRISTINE; The work of God compells me What recourse there must be, Temptress cloaked in Piety Begone deciever! (But O!) This sorcery, you see, has breathed in me A life anew. Antipathy and Avidity. Conflate within my innoxious mind. Repent! Once my seed's been sown. Phantomize before my gaze Endow upon my woeful conscience (the) Penitence imminent Fervor of my loins begets (this) Lust I once saw FLEETING, thus now INTERCEDING, BLEEDING, Into all my dreams, its LEADING me to wickedness (Bear witness to my Sins.) Dreams! Magic terrors! Spells of Mighty power! Witches, ghosts who rove in Midnight hours! Desires stir for fresh indulgence. At the expense of her devotion Give me tricks of blackened will Bring me power to enthrall This is love I feel, And she will know my primal urge!
Murderous affliction overwhelms No one will stop my vile spells False death, Resurrect!
Into purity, enter that which is erect! ANGUISH! FURY! How dare you seek escape from me!
I'll stick this blade into you, lest I'm meant to meet my fate. DEFIED; depraved, my soul, it screams in vain. UNCLEAN; my grace in God absolved. What recourse waits for me Blasphemous monk, indeed. Foul ghoul, deliver! (But O!) This sorcery, you see, has spawned in me A carnal fiend. Lechery and Infirmity. Beguile within me desperation pleas Implore! I give my soul to your baneful clutch Oh God above, I cast you out. My hope now lies beneath. Upon my flesh, I call to thee Dark angel; free me from these chains! Phantomize before my gaze Endow upon my woeful conscience (the) Agony imminent Horror of my fate begets (this) Lust that once felt FLEETING Thus now brings him SEETHING, SCREECHING vicious truths to me, he's LEADING me to ceaseless pain (Bear witness to his Sinful bliss.)
