Crystal Eyes

Temple Of Immortal Shame

Crystal Eyes


Jaws of devastation 
breathing fire in my face 
Words of oppression bite me with disgust 

Eyes of condemnation 
piercing my forsaken soul 
Another sacrifice has to be done 

In the altar's shadow 
I confess my heresy 
I'm a perfect sinner, 
unbound and free 

All my demons come alive 
inside the temple of immortal shame 
Lord, have mercy on me now! 
I have no other choice but to lie 
straight in the face of Death 

Claws of frozen hatred 
wrapping tight around my neck 
as I'm allowed to answer the foul beast 

Can I cheat to be spared 
from the hand of slavery 
or will my true intentions be revealed? 

Life, only for the brave 
Whips and chains, only for the slaves 
I am no slave!
