Within the Felon Endearment Lyrics


Oppressed by my porcelain wraiths

I am an arrow to the heart of Hades

Ne‘er dismayed from a howling deep

The unfettered I, a derelict to leap

Whist, you images! Lines of fluster and bale

Come, dust my wings, my feathers nailed

Far too much ache I am compelled to bear

I, the grievous one, on a long way to fare

My bonds pertain just to this earth

To the sick fold of it’s peccant herd

Like a saint I preach the spirit, the will

To leave you lone behind my private kill

I’ve always heard to beard the real

With blows to suffer and blows to deal

Now, my wings are rived to make me fade

A freed frame resolved to dissipate

Here I am, just break me down my luck

Be my guide through the reigns of muck

I’ve always heard to beard the foe

Aghast now, in my personal death row
