Servant of the Bones

Collect the skeletal remains

Of long dead memories

To line this rotting hole I've made inside me

A scarred and twisted soul is all I've got to show

For this life alone

Among the dead, among the bones

Burn me once

Shame on you

Burn me twice

Shame on me

You'll never get that close

Not while I serve the bones

Upon this anger upon this hatred I feed

These things that somehow nourish will slowly kill me

These talismans remind of pain felt over time

Before this life I chose

Among the dead, among the bones
