Beast Beneath The Skin

Brethren annihilated by rapture
Ever and since forever
Captured and slain by attraction
The stand falls weak and shattered

Where is our integrity
Our strength and iron will
Of übermensch post-ascetic male
Taken down by angels of parasitic dawn
We fail - we succumb - we yield - we fall prey

Goddamn regret
Dressed in lies and shame
We walk the halls of sin
Purify our throats with severed skin

No one stands the beast
The beast beneath the skin
Cannot stand this carnal travail
A captive of some God’s dictation
A mere animal under command

I fade
I wilt
I fade
