Writhe under the lash of submission
For dreams are too short
To compare with this rapture
Stretching into an infinity of blessed torment
The eightfold mark I wear...
Realisation through abasement...
Smeared with the clotted blood of abandonment
What was reality compared with this rapture?
Sinful mask I wear, flesh to tear
Hedonistic pain ritual
Sacrosanct perversion
Black dream of violence
Flesh falls to rapture in hell
Ascend to permission
Wear their mark upon your skin
All things are permitted
Under the law of rapture made flesh
Hedonistic pain ritual
Glorified in torment
In pain the limits of flesh transcend
Borne on wings of torment
The eightfold mark I wear
Flesh to dust...
