The Smiler Lyrics

The Smiler lyrics

Harvester of death behind a marble altar

Sucking your last breath- smiling

A gibbering wreck, rope of love around your neck

Life a crucifixion- keep smiling

Sinking into depths, hands are tied behind your back

Strangled by devotion- smiling

Abandonment of self, depression is your ecstasy

In misfortune engrossed- smiling

Destruction is wealth- punishment your luxury

Elation through pain- Still smiling

Slave of bleak desire- in vacuum void of pity

Exotic isolation- Smiling



Barren emotion cuts like a blunt knife

Against the hatred of your blackened heart

Brewing through states in search of joy

They spit out rejection, you worship the same

Annihilation of your inner-self

Breeds gratification in your hunger for wealth

All that was beauty you've smashed wide apart

With the fist of envy, for nothing that's smart



Servants to emptiness fall onto their knees

Entranced by the smiler they crave his disease

Frailty drives them as nothingness breeds

In cartoons of virtue their observance bleeds

In lakes of fire- they yearn to be blessed

Slaves to perfection- baptised unto death

King of lost feelings, in pain he is crowned

Within love's inferno, the smiler he stands
