Embrace It
Where is the glory in the new me Where is the feeling of achievement In the shadows of the evening Where is the satisfaction in your killing creed Who am I now, I don't know I must question my existence And deal with your persistence That somehow in some way you set me free And I don't think that I can take another night of these instincts that I fight This overwhelming dread of feeling damned inside Oh God help us, just look at you You're shrinking away from my point of view Showering me with your pious plane The gift that I give is exempt from shame chorus Embrace it, embrace it Make no mistake, these dismal traits Are temporary ties to everlasting life Embrace it, embrace it You seek my trust after the lies But in this superficial splendor SongtexteThe decades will seem endless Or will the drudgery of torment be my bride What lies are these of what you speak Are you so blinded by contrition That you sense in me ambitions And a failure to practice what I preach And I don't think I can take another night of your countenance in sight The wilted flower act who shuns the vampire's bite Oh God belp me, just look at you Striding through Hell with nothing to prove A glorious ghost on infinity's fuse Then if it's to be, tell me what I should do [repeat chorus] So God help us to see it through Two of Lucifer's angels are on the loose Oh merciful and majestic boy This gift I bestow was to be enjoyed [repeat chorus] Aus Songtexte Mania
