Punished Lyrics


It used to be my pain,

(But I) lost power over it.

(And) bodies (still) pile up forever

Over feelings of faith...

A nightmare lies

Between me

And the dogma

I ran from.

It is haunting

(To) punish the flesh. I do.

Be vigilant all times:

Awake and serene;

Awake and sublime.

A light to a world now gone.

Emptiness.

(The) resonant

Omen of

(The) temptress

Of vice.

Emptiness.

A psalm

That Denies the truth.

It’s

The fall

Of our minds.

Sanctimonious.

Redemption for

Their ancient lies

Upon the altar.

Unscrupulous.

A treacherous

Clash of the minds

Denying truth.

Alight!

Bloodhound, the victim I

Found alone and bound to

The punishment of sin.

Wounding in red, regret in black.

Before indifference sets in,

Before tiredness within sets in,

Trinity, Trinity here,

Alight!

Alight!

Bloodhound, blood-bound, which I

Found alone and uncrowned

(With) Trinity’s violin

That calls us in—anguish within.
