Rites of Torment Lyrics


Light a fire, burn a body, scatter her ashes while

The tortured are waiting, moaning though sewn mouths

More than pain, less than hate, arrogant vengeful trial

My soul is empty, so I will drink theirs

Chalice – to the rim

Dying without scream

Pyre in my blood

Vengeance is my art

Their lives pass to me

By the spell and alchemy

Such is the reckoning

For the loss that I incurred

Death for a death, life for a life, misery spawned a black hole

Kill the flesh, drink the soul, tear the thread that bound their worlds

I`m drained and hungry, revenge became my life

I`m tired of waiting for their hearts to be mine

Chalice – to the rim

Dying without scream

Pyre in my blood

Vengeance is my art

Sacrificial rites of torment warping shapes of life

Summon the energies that will long time growing inside

Of their pain and fire

Because only life can buy life
