1.
From poisoned womb grows soulless life An existence born of suffering Agony too great to endure The bearer of your life Breathes now her last breath Her time of agony finally over now A vein tapped and a line drawn in the sand From her tragedy comes a new hope The sound of innocence yet to be corrupted These precious moments are so very fleeting A mother’s embrace is so cruelly lost What light now guides your way? What path lay ahead for you? Taken under abusive wing Lessons learnt from filth and decay This upward journey embarked This erosion of virtue
2.
Spit on the ones that kneel at your feet Nothing but disgust for them Take them away and silence their cries Defile them with torture, a madman May their suffering be a warning To all those who challenge this Old man there will be a time When I will rise up against you Judgement day approaches Let your guard down and I will have my revenge Now I stand above you Don’t worry I will make you pay for this With shovel in hand I will strike you down I will leave you in a bloody mess Exhilaration floods in waves of blood You will cause no more harm In your face they see the crimes Unspeakable acts of cruelty No remorse behind those eyes Prepare to receive your judgment

Beauty that was so seldom held So pure in her fucking way Crimson lips on porcelain white Glowing aura follows her moves How could one be so perfect? Urgency to make you mine An inception born of darkness A will consumed to destroy I call out to you, a moment frozen in fear My dear your innocence will be your downfall I stare at you through the veil of leaves Excitement builds in anticipation The blood pumps as heart rate quickens Time approaches when you will be mine The darkness is upon you now The devil lay behind these eyes Sick intentions hidden in shadows This wolf let loose on the lambs My first, my perfect one Please don’t struggle my love I claim your life and take as my own No protector to keep you from harm A sacrifice worth dying for Fulfill these darkest desires Now we’re all alone and all is quiet We have all the time in the world Enjoy the beauty of your suffering Your death as pure as your life

Don’t cower from me There’s nowhere to run, your screams echo But soon will be silent, death circles my innocent one Let me guide you from this world I have played this out in my dreams So many times before The way the light leaves your lifeless corpse There is no forgiveness in my torturous ways Such beauty in this world that I must destroy My entire existence has been leading to this And now it is done I feel no relief Anticipation has left me wanting I must relive this ritual The floodgates open now In destruction I will reign Feeding off the terror in their faces New search for the next victim On and on the search now begins for the next in line In these eyes lay no mercy In this heart no truth Skin tears and with it resolve of the helpless Mercy not given here, even in betrayal Bleed for me my precious one
7.
This is your own personal Armageddon Ruins of a broken world Blood soaked and scattered all around I revel in such naked honesty I own your existence Control your every breath Suffer for me now Taken into me Consume all your flesh Be as one soul now Taken from the confusion of this world What we have is pure now As blood soaked as it may be There are no false pretenses These visions linger in me Comfort on sleepless nights Your screams like a symphony Know I’ll be there at the end It’s only in this act I find peace, quiet from the noise Solace can be found in the arms of the dead
8.
Welcome to this infernal nightmare A place where death feeds off the living Caged and trapped you struggle to be free Lambs to the slaughter In this eerie place where dreams turn to nightmares All that is sacred and pure is lost Cold black of the earth waits to greet with open arms What seems so right on the surface, is merely a facade The true darkness dwells underneath Writhing, twisted deformity Watch on in terror the show is about to begin This futile dance you are forced to watch You can run, you can pray, for your life But the ending is always the same How quickly the eyes of the innocent Turn black with greed Empty smiles disguise the intent Knives hidden, waiting for backs to turn
9.
There is no end to my wickedness My thirst for victims is unquenchable I yearn for the trickle of their blood The slicing of their flesh The lifeless stare that follows This ritual I must repeat Before I’m done the whole world will cower I will write my name in red I exist in the fear of many Thrive on the terror of the few Mercy will not be given The voices won’t let me stop The process begins again I stalk my prey, I am the taker of your life All honour taken, feel my sickening embrace As I consume your soul, become one with me Cower in the shadows, your life meaningless Buried in a shallow grave Forgotten in time
10.
Even now when I listen closely I hear The first of many, my beautiful one My innocent Amaranthine The way she pleaded to be spared The look of betrayal in her eyes Trust In Me, I’ll set you free If there is a hell, it’s truly where I belong I ask for no forgiveness, just truth The weight of this secret, it crushes me Not through the burden of guilt But from the restraint needed to conceal the clandestine Were there tears of insult shed at my loss? Did they gather and mourn? Did they say I sleep in a better place? How the fuck would they know? At least when I’m gone There will be no deception No clichéd words of condolence No mourning for me In death... You gave me life In death... This truth revealed In death... We are all free In death... Absolution
