Sham Piety

If you could live forever what would you live for?

A damned aversion of a black soul

Or an everlasting love?

For this lonesome voyage

Remembering this is not a sham

Remembering there is only pain

Remembering those sad lonely screams

And everything will soon fall in place

An everlasting love

The lessons we have attained

Remembrance of a dying world

I'm sending forth a wasted heart

Lust and madness make an abysmal soul

It you have chosen is what you have always said

The unappeased ardor

Remembering this is not a sham

Remembering there is only pain

Of eerie worship

With wailing in the night

And sensation without sight

I'm sending forth a wasted heart
