lyrics

Your suicide ain't self sacrifice.
You're just a child playing with knives.
Swimming in crimson and thinking it's soma
When your altar is fading white.

Death holds up an all seeing mirror to our eyes. Which the consequences of our negative and positive actions are clearly seen. There is a weighing of our past actions in light of their consequences. The balance of which will determine the kind of existence we are being driven to enter.

So bury your halo along with your afterlife.
As your scripture goes quiet.
You stinking sack of meat with your heavy heart.
You never were featherweight in your life.
And when that dark dog makes its peace with you
The last thing you'll feel is its bite.
