The Nightlight Sigil
Remember thy name
Remember through gratitude
Gather the commune
Today we break our daily bread
And the belt begins to fall
It cracks to the beat of the broken ambience
The blood starts to clot
As it pools by the bedside
Only muted cries ring true in the house that God left empty
The floorboards threatening to crack
Under the weight of this sentiment
A truth so nefarious brings chills to the bone,
Sanctuary defiled now there’s no place like home
So what’s punishment?
Help him meet his creator?
To end this cycle and reward them later?
I was but a trophy on the mantelpiece for them
Another one to bring to the depths
So excuse me for my lack of respect
But I welcome them to the state I’ve been in
Instead abandon the light,
Abandon the book, abandon the sign
There’s no shame in the great divide
So walk with me in sin
Walk with me in freedom,
Cause it’s all that remains in the void we’re all so enamoured with
I was but a trophy on the mantelpiece for them
Another one to bring to the depths
So excuse me for my lack of respect
But I welcome them to the state I’ve been in
Tear me apart
Let there be nothing left but memories
From dirt which we come, to dirt we shall return
Labelled as hedonistic,
Unrealistic pigs amongst the mud
Just fighting for a fix
If only they knew
If only they understood the damage they’ve done
Stigmata
We are all just martyrs
Stigmata
We are unclean
Stigmata
I was but a trophy on the mantelpiece for them
Another one to bring to the depths
So excuse me for my lack of respect
But I welcome them to the state I’ve been in
Oh formless one
Drape your fear right over me
Wash me with the shadows
The eyes no longer see
Stigmata
We are just martyrs
Stigmata
We are unclean
Televise this betrayal
But what becomes of us?
Are we a part of this tale?
Or one with the dust
