Lyrical Analysis of...
Rotting Faith - Poetic Mind
- Hallowed be the blasphemy that feeds upon the wretched breath
- Crucifix inverted like the prayers, I could not accept
- Skin stitched sloppy, cross hatched like a corset
- Carved into my flesh, see the sins I've been forced with
- Phantom panic, shadows dancin', hands that snatch the candlesticks
- Maggots in the bandages, and the stench of rotted amulets
- Vultures in the catacombs, gnashin' where the gallows grip
- Maggots in the marrow feastin' on the sins I can't forget
- Satan sittin' patient, watchin' angels fight the struggle
- Cuttin' halos off they heads, sell 'em back to God as doubles
- Barbed wire veins pumpin' venom to the brainstem
- Stains from the days when the plague washed the saints in
- Soul split, foldin' like the serpent where the ribs sit
- Halo caught rust, now it's hangin' like a slit wrist
- Nightmares nested in the chasm of a sunken skull
- Terror in the silence where the oxygen can cut your throat
- Hook:
- Rotting faith, rotting faith
- Can't escape, no saving grace
- Crosses break, nails decay
- Demons laugh, they celebrate
- Rotting faith, rotting faith
- Buried deep, I dig my grave
- Lost my way, soul to take
- Shadows dance, I suffocate
- Hellscape visions in the smog of a ruptured lung
- Breathless confessions to the Father and the holy Son
- Faded youth, plagued by a faith that can't sustain the proof
- Sermons just a masquerade of saints that can not save the youth
- Splinters in my spine from the cross where I was crucified
- Spit shined the nails, then they slammed 'em in like suicide
- Scabs split open, blood trickled in a lucid line
- Hung between the wicked just to rot before the truest died
- Baptized in acid rain, skin blistered, blackened veins
- Raven feathers scattered where the gallows leave the rafters stained
- Rust drips from iron gates, oxidized in wicked sweat
- Whispered incantations from the tongues of every misfit left
- Eyes gouged by ravens, sockets hollow like a preacher's word
- Hallowed ground defiled, witches dancin' where the creatures lurk
- Pagans drawin' pentagrams, clutchin' at the preacher's curse
- Every saint's a sinner if you listen to their bleedin' verse
- Lost my peace, paid the price, truth is carved in sacrifice
- Praying hands that grip the knife, cut me open just to splice
- Soul is frayed, death awaits, love's a wound that never fades
- Rotting faith, embraced the pain this the bed my sins have made
- Hook:
- Rotting faith, rotting faith
- Can't escape, no saving grace
- Crosses break, nails decay
- Demons laugh, they celebrate
- Rotting faith, rotting faith
- Buried deep, I dig my grave
- Lost my way, soul to take
- Shadows dance, I suffocate
