Exhumed Identity

A howling wasteland, all that remains in my mind

Is sacrilegious savagery, I defile all I find

Within my seclusion, prayers are as worthless as pity

By rottenness consumed, I spit my bile at sanctity

You look into my eyes, malice is all you'll find

Devoid of sympathy, exhumed identity

Jagged mark inscribed in my palms, stigmatized

I breathe a hollow breath of broken pride

The pain that I conceal is putrescent

Rotting me. I'll cut it free. All my sins I now repent

You are powerless - crumble at my feet

Strike with iron fist - crush mercilessly

Domination reigns down with every blow

Viciously I reduce you to nothing

Shadowed by a wraith of misery

An inborn infection

But when I try to bury it and flee

It's exhumed and resurrected
