My suffering is my only possession Pain, my lover, cruelty, my master Your flesh my loyal obsession Your pain my salvation I'm after The evening moon witnesses all From my gutted stomach to my bashed head Pleasure shall be my downfall And agony, my glorious death My suffering is all I have left over Pain my only friend Your flesh my rotten lover Your pain my final end The morning sun sees all From my shredded skin to my broken bones Pleasure shall be my downfall And agony my comforting home
2.
I have killed yet another And now I sit in my black hole waiting for another victim that I can behold And not even that will feed this horrid need I live for my own pain and suffering I have beaten many before And that would kill my pain But this rotten feeling in my gut Won't seem to be away No matter how many I kill, it isn't enough So I sit in agony in my little black box For a mere second when I had her in my reach I almost felt cured and almost felt free She clawed and she fought yet I did not bleed No blood can be drawn from pure agony I stabbed her flesh and said my farewell I left to find another pawn to kill But there seems to be no end to this horrid suffering I am not him and he is not me I am somehow forgotten and left behind This life it has cruelly cast me aside And fate it gave me a horrid plot All I want is to die and peacefully rot Scum of the earth will find their final rest While I work to earn my own belated death I am forgotten by all except for this fate It has assigned me an eternal duty of hate
3.
Death it did not take me, death it did not want me My time to come is never, but to kill again, maybe I will be free Your fatal wounds can not put me down or stop my destiny I will arise in an hour with the gift of suffering In my own blood, dressing in my own agony Death left me alone, to heal, to fulfil my prophecy I am left with nothing but this 'life' In my mind a stranger, in my gut a knife And death it could not take me, even though I begged On my knees with blood in my eyes, I could not be saved And I have nothing but this unwanted devoir This inability to die, this deadened fervor All was stolen by my murderer And that of actual value was stolen so long before My wounds are now healed and clean I will kill another until I find what should have been My death, my peace, my long awaited demise My departure from this horrid place, the end of my cries
4.
I awoke from a disturbed sleep Dead whores dancing in the walls I looked into a blackened mirror And it was not me I saw My destiny was sorrow, my plan was to kill And hatred it came from nowhere With a need to be fulfilled Among the streets I roamed, with a burning pang My blood boiled with a most provoking flame I found myself in her coppery blood And I almost felt alright But then it came back, my bloodlust My loathsome appetite Under the blackened sky I awoke from a sleep And what I saw in the mirror it was no longer me My destiny was sorrow, my fate was to kill And hatred slipped in with a need to be fulfilled I should have been dead, I was but still alive Walking among these endless streets to make others die From my death I arose anew to bring a message of sorrow A force to roam in agony, to live again tomorrow
5.
Your blood brought comfort, and a grin came over me It has been so long since I was truly free But your demise brought with it a new life Devouring your essence, I shall die another night So close to my death, I must keep staying For who knows how long, death it would not take me I grin at the thought of final peace and death Devouring your essence so I can finally rest You may be the last, there seems to be no conclusion And you meant nothing to me, you are nothing but an illusion I have blood in my eyes, and a wound that won't heal I have a knife in my hand, and nothing could make me feel Freedom must be near, for I have waited a long time Centuries have passed, and I want what is mine I must kill again Devouring your essence I must meet my death The misery of life haunts me, and I have nothing left I must kill again!
6.
I have found true happiness in malice and scorn I think I can live like this, murdering and so forlorn My joy it comes from others suffering and blight Perpetual blood on my hands and in my etes, eternal night Prophecy or not, this is my chosen existence I shall kill tomorrow, no regret or resistance I have found my peace in this life of ruin And I am ready to kill again soon My hate feeds and drives my damned soul My hate is my bridge and I have paid my toll At last I have found peace and tranquility Through this hatred that shows no civility My anger and rage have guided me to bliss With a dead whore's dance and a serpernt's kiss I am one now with my own hate I am one now with this chosen fate I walk with joy, these eternal nights Stalking my prey with an insatiable appetite Blood stained upon my skin and the moon in my eyes So close to life and so far from my demise
7.
Compassion, a possession I do not obtain I belong to no-one Just a lost soul with nothing to live for I once had a friend, but now she lives in pain She belongs to only me I have nothing to live for any more Sympathy, I have never known I belong to my own sorrow I once had a lover, but she lies alone She belongs to only me And I shall not see tomorrow I guess it was I who mudered her But she was most deserving My suffering shall show me the way of murder I shall lick my wounds And clean the dirt out of me With my knife in my hand, and blood from my eyes I walk along this lonely valley With my heart split open and empty inside I wander through this emptiness That has taken so much out of me
