Self Portrait

歌詞

Oh, I have seen the light And all I wanted was to put it out And I heard about peace, love and good I felt like destroying it all, as soon as I understood. So when offered the sacred blood of Jesus Christ For once I spat in the cup And for each time you prayed 'save him' I threw you spells, saying 'piss in the eye of the lamb' Holy father, I turned from you Threw the cross into the fire Your name I deny May the kingdom, the power and glory be taken from thee I close my eyes, now I dream of Hell I've been walking for long Through the valley of the shadow of death Lucifer's light guiding me On my path made of remains from people like you I'd rather spend my eternity in a lake of fire Than together with you Praying sheep, stinking church rats, your empty smiles Make me nauseous and eager to kill Still no conscience, still no regrets after all that I've done 'Cause I've never felt anything but contempt and scorn For this world and mankind A human life is worth nothing to me I've dreamt of sulphur spheres Where black's the lightest nuance And I've seen you suffer there In anguish. In tormenting void And each night, in the rivers of all-consuming fire And that fire remains within me wherever I walk All my hate is but love for the Lord My tongue's cloven like the snakes, sharp as the sword With which the lambs shall be slaughtered To water the soil with holy blood Walk into me, wander beyond the grace of god Into starless nights Soon to enter, the kingdom of shadows in abyssal grave Wield your knives, fight for what is wrong!
