An Umbral Offering

Watch as the color in the sky fades into a violet
Cold body drained of blood
A mother's womb is sewn shut by the muted choir
A holy devil unloved

Great terror looms

Transcend the hunt with the rite that's given
This healing blood runs through me
Grinding of blackened teeth covered up in crimson
Hell before the altar of despair

Paleblood in the sky
Born again just to die
A rite to bend for my conviction
Crimson fades to a hollowed grey
Ritualistic and immoral tradition
Watch as the back of your eyes decay

Paleblood, beyond its violent shape
Behind the sight of misery
An umbral offering
The shattered fragment of a memory
Now watch it burn
