妖怪 (yōkai)

The earth is sick
I felt life drain away
And watched wickedness reign
I've heard lies justified in the interest of faith
And we burn and kill
Consuming at will
There's no turning back now, this is what we built

I don't want to die like this

No martyrs or honour
The hope that died, a soul slaughtered
And if you wrap the fucking noose around my neck
I'll jump and pray I hear the snap ringing in the back of my head

Father
A giant
Consume us all and leave nothing
Life or fire
One mind, devastator
We're filth and pain, a blackened stain
I welcome the end as I'm wasting away

I've become a phantom
An apparition dismantled
I am alone, I am fractured as light becomes
Shadows shift as we're swallowed in a black hole
Rise
The enemy that I am

We formed a staple of misery
The final drain on all humanity
A soul I'm feeling is departing me
What could I do?
They made me do it

I've become a phantom
An apparition dismantled
I am alone, I am fractured as light becomes
Shadows shift as we're swallowed in a black hole
Rise
The enemy that I am

Phantom
An apparition dismantled
I am alone, I am fractured and I'll become
Shadows shift as we're swallowed in a black hole
Rise
The enemy that I am

The enemy that I am
The enemy that I am

I'm so sick of this endless torment
And I'm so tired of being tired
I can feel you scratching at my skin
Yōkai

I'm still subjected to a gnawing at my sanity
It's been my only consistency in reality
But now the cracks are showing
There's just no way of knowing
A growing pain that remains as long as I'll allow
Fuck it kill me now

Finally free from this horror
This nightmare
