Sweet Heresy Lyrics

Sweet Heresy lyrics

No more words



 



Rise



And take your place beside me in all that I've built in disgrace



Grace the halls with curdling calls and watch the sky



The kingdom falls



Blight



Make haste your retreat



Make it with tact, make it discreet



Flood the world, drown the strife, and wash away this tainted life



 



Taunt the sane



Pinch the vein



Strike the night and scream at the rain



The more I know, the more I hate



Thus begins the Inside



 



Brick by brick



I begin to rebuild my temple of mourning instilled



Sing us a song for those who have passed



Those who have learned, those who were last



I will ride the changing tide



Start at the end and walk to the sun



Know that you've passed



Know that you've won



 



Taunt the sane



Pinch the vein



Strike the night and scream at the rain



The more I know, the more I hate



Thus begins the Inside



 



Sacrifice my right to rot



My chance to heal



My one escape



It's crashing down



I know the sound of pestilence



Of children screaming out



 



I know you and have seen what you do



I alone



I will not compromise how much pain I inflict



 



Sovereignty



My paradise burnt down



Effigy, I ask of thee,



"O Heresy, sweet Heresy, you've seen the gates. Now lead me through them"



 



One more day left to play



Where's the love?



Where's the blood?



I refuse to believe that this is all there is



 



I feel no shame



I place no blame



Although you've changed, I feel the same



 



I don't belong



I don't exist



I'll try my best to forget this
