Binary Heart

[Verse 1]
Buried beneath your goddamn halo,
You preached, I bled, you burned me slow.
Carved my sins in your holy name,
You smiled when I drowned in shame.
Now I’m clawing through the dirt again,
A requiem soaked in blood and gin.
Angels turn their heads away,
’Cause I’m the curse they couldn’t slay.

[Pre-Chorus]
I hear your whispers callin’ me back,
From the black of the earth, from a heart gone cracked.
You dressed my corpse in chains and lace,
Now I rise to spit in your face.

[Chorus]
Upon my grave, I stand again,
Screamin’ fuck your cross, fuck your Amen!
I built my throne from my decay,
Kiss the dead and watch ’em sway.
Upon my grave, I breathe your hate,
Crown of dirt, my twisted fate.
Light the pyre, let heaven shake,
Upon my grave, the gods will break.

[Verse 2]
Your prayers are poison in disguise,
Drippin’ honey from serpent lies.
I was the saint you crucified,
But the sinner in me never died.
Through every crack in my coffin lid,
I felt your guilt for what you did.
Now your church will taste my rot,
Your holy water turns to clot.

[Pre-Chorus]
You thought I’d fade in dirt and flame,
But even death can’t kill my name.
From bones to dust, from hate to grace,
I smile as the worms embrace.

[Chorus]
Upon my grave, I stand again,
Screamin’ fuck your cross, fuck your Amen!
I built my throne from my decay,
Kiss the dead and watch ’em sway.
Upon my grave, I breathe your hate,
Crown of dirt, my twisted fate.
Light the pyre, let heaven shake,
Upon my grave, the gods will break.

[Bridge – (guttural growl and melodic scream)]
Bleed the choir, burn the light,
Let my ghost feast on the night!
Every tear you dropped was fake,
Now feel the earth beneath you quake!

[Outro]
Lay the roses, cold and black,
I’m the ghost that won’t turn back.
From the pit, I rise, depraved
Forever crowned upon my grave

Upon My Grave

IDENTITY SLAUGHTER

He arrived from the depths of my dreams

Revealing to me a journey through flame then disappearing



Before my eyes

A vanishing act

The aura cleansing this confinement I experience

A fire placed in my heart

I call forth an occultic gathering



Draw in numbers

Hark my word

Into the flame we rise



We have been summoned

Brought to forces by the Perpetrator

My rest had been disturbed by its reckoning

Whispering to me

“My child, come into my embrace

To create comfort in this unsteady place

With inferno I offer eternal salvation

A chance to quench from the blood of your pain”



“O, vessel of life

Heir to your throne

Take thine hand and I shall guide you through the valleys of death”

O, great King of Hell

I shall fulfill my prophecy

Show me the path we must take

Through the heart of enemies

Behold the Prince Testament



Rid this world of its selfishness

Cleanse ourselves from the hatred absolved

Ridden with heretics

Ignorance is not bliss

Your vision shall die

Your vision shall burn to the ground



While you worship the self proclaimed

I see through to the truth

I’ve come to understand what you integrate is for your own indulgence

Manufacturing a slave race

We are not the same



“You were never the same. From birth you were more than what you had been granted on this Earth. Accept it, embrace it.”



Before my eyes

A vanishing act

The aura cleansing the confinement I experience

A fire placed in my heart

I call forth an occultic gathering



Draw in numbers

Hark my word

Into the flame we rise



At last achieved

Understanding of what has brought us here today

No sheering misery

Nor extermination could stop what had been done

A sacrifice to the beast will allow us to advance

Onwards to the legacy
