We mourn the pale and listless
It's half past corpse o'clock
Praise the sick, hail the twisted
Sell your soul it's time to rock
Let's celebrate our life's failures
That we are forced to repeat
Breed the bastard despite the knowledge
That with flesh comes deceit
With a blind oath to madness
We are forced to rebel
Wearing a badge of our shame
Let's starve for the devil
How long I have tried to separate
My guilt from all of my lies
How long you have tried to see
Beyond the emptiness of my eyes
A curse to grant your wishes
When it's half past corpse o'clock
Realize your reason's twisted
Starve your soul, it's time to rot
Let's forget ever moment
For human life is frail
And all I know for certain
Is that the mirror shows us hell
With a blind oath to madness
We are forced to rebel
Wearing a badge of our shame
Let's starve for the devil
How long I have tried to separate
My guilt from all of my lies
How long you have tried to see
Beyond the emptiness of my eyes
The blindness of our eyes
And the madness that it brings
The seven whispers are silent
As a carcass choir sings
How long I have tried to separate
My guilt from all of my lies
How long have you tried to see
Beyond the emptiness of my eyes?
