lyrics

god’s flesh. an ideal canvas for his masterpiece.
loveless. the void is his heart the ether his brain.
sorrow. armies have fallen beneath his sword.
vicious intent. he laughs like a jackal and feeds the world to his torch.

run away there is nothing left for you here.
burnt houses, and shallow graves.
abandon hope as you find a way to disappear .
the muffled cries are cursing your name and heart.

as it breaks. the earth quakes. my hands shake. for fuck sake.

my friend! as we breath. we all die.
the end. its entertaining how. you still try.
your claim. agonizing over your precious lie.
this pain. was it worth it? your sacrifice.

how should this end? with a song and dance?
or just an epilogue of this sick tragedy.
don't give up now. we’re having so much fun.
we kill the hero off before the third act.

then ill have enough fucking rope.
to bind the fucking world.
wash it all in gasoline and
watch it fucking burn.

and there is nothing that could stop it now.
the crown upon my furrowed brow.
and the throne is crashing to the ground.
all hail the lunatic

now i no longer feel hesitant.
about the madness that I represent.
I’ll let the fire help me make sense.
long live the lunatic.

but i know that this has just begun.
there is nothing that can be undone.
now it’s time we had a little fun.
all hail the lunatic.

Watch the peasants sifting through the ash.
astonished by my ugly wrath.
they cower when they hear my laugh.
long live the lunatic.

when I’m greeted by a righteous mob.
it only makes my heart throb.
im so flattered i join in their song.
DEATH TO THE LUNATIC!

you want justice for your many dead.
so i gladly offer up my head.
and i've only left one thing unsaid.
damn it feels good to be a gangsta.
