The Voice of Anguish

歌詞

I am that which darkness fears The voice of anguish taunting you False evidence appearing real What is not but could be if I am the echo of your failure The grandfather of your despite Standing reserved with arms crossed Glaring, leering, smug and solemn I am the phantom waiting for your fall The possessive lover taking your breath Agony, tragedy, suffering and pain I am the grand obscenity The living mirage of constant doubt See your reflection in my eyes Timid, reluctant and insecure The newborn child is guilty of every crime Ever committed by man Shifting ever inward and away As the final virgin lies slain by the maiden's wrath Nightmares unite with the torture of waking As the first jealousy rises And the jaws expand to devour Sleeping stars awaken the masquerade Disguised abhorrence in the boiling lake Another dies as another is called Inexorable night and the shadows will feed Crying for help, unable to speak Dying unmourned, screaming unheard At the mouth of hell in the valley of the sun All hope is drained in the death embrace Times of crisis, a vision of no future Formless apprehension of perceived loss Twisting of speech from a desperate mind Birthed the legend of the defining choice
