There is a feeling
That's always there
Scraping and growling
At the back of my mind
Sometimes it breaks through
And enters my soul
I don't fight it
Because I want this to happen
So I accept its desire
Driving through me like nails
Its teeth hold tight
And I gaze through its eyes
The feeling is like fire
Burning up my spine
An inferno entering my brain
I succumb to selfish ways
Demons in my mind
Devils in my heart
And I am their master
I am their master
Agony in my soul
Misery in my guts
And I am their lord
Yes I am their god
Again I walk this path
Sometimes on purpose
It's the road to harm
Only ghosts out here
This can be poetry
Bleak in its ways
Ink upon the page
Blood outside the veins
So I accept my desire
And hammer down the nails
My teeth hold tight
As the demons now sigh
The fire brings feelings
Locked deep inside
Gates now open
I succumb to my rage
Demons in my mind
Devils in my heart
And I am their master
I am their master
Agony in my soul
Misery in my guts
And I am their lord
Yes I am their god
Getting swept up in the merciless undertow driving these all-consuming black-metal songs is half the fun. The other half is in the riffs. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 17, 2019
