A Beast to Praise

In solitude I am talking to ghosts

And while the netherworld is being ripped open wide

My human flesh is still keeping me

Between these walls, and I am eager to die

♪

I am creating all these fantasies

With all those filthy claws reaching out

My dreams are dark and they are not my own

I hear the Devil call

He's crying out for blood

♪

His crimson eye is watching from the depths of the night

I am forsaken and my sanity's abandoned me

My hands are cold

I have a strength that's beyond my fading flesh

I am becoming what I knew I would be

The beast of hate

The killers knife, the murderer of gods

♪

Inside my head I am feeding my thoughts

And as the darkness falls I stand strong and proud

My serpent skin is still cold and sleek

I am sublime and I am ready to die

♪

The evil one is watching from the depths of the dark

I am alone and driven by my murder fantasies

My thoughts are vile

I have an urge to destroy my human mold

I am becoming what I always have been

A beast so great

The stabbing knife, deliverer of death

My eyes turn black

I have a drive that's too strong to comprehend

I am the fallen one that conquers the night

A beast to praise

To fear and awe, I am the king of the damned

♪

In loneliness I am ruling the world

And now my kingdom reaches so far and wide

My flesh and bones were just keeping me

Confined and chained, but I am finally dead

My hands are strong

I have the brawn to destroy my mortal cage

I am more vicious than I ever have been

A beast from Hell

A ruthless force, the bearer of the flame

My eyes are black

I have a lust that's too strong to hold against

I shall bring slaughter and erase all the light

A beast to praise

To fear and awe, the bringer of the end
