Scythe of Samael Lyrics


This demon's grip chokes me

Crushed between bone and death

My blade does not dull

For I am immortal

I crave the taste of thy skin

I'm cradled within its warmth

I hear thy breath escape

The whispers chased by blood

Fear, afflict, deprive

Hate, seduce, destroy

He is ever lusting

He is everliving me

Fear, afflict, deprive

Hate, seduce, destroy

Taste my blade

The sickeningly sweet sound

Of thy cries of death

Fills my wielder's ears

With righteous content

Thy flesh rendered open

By the brunt of my blade

Thou cannot come to haunt again

The sin that courses through thy eyes

Dark as the pit

Evaporates unto the air

As death's hound steal the gleam from thine eyes

I persist to live

Everything my hands touch dies
