I have nailed the meat to my skin
So the crows can be my next of kin
I fell in love with the darkness so I followed it in
To alters of loving anguish and healing sin
What is perceived, as an infection, is in times a saving grace.
The darkness can be warmer than a familiar place
Just remember, it’s a lonely path to take
Just remember, nothings fair when you swallow the only blood you have spare
Just remember, once you’ve rinsed your bones in the acid and the grit
Force them back into place and just remember they aren’t an easy fix
Shackled. To a church in the dark of the woods.
Overwhelmed. Cold wraps around my heart.
No longer have to carve your heart out in the search
For love or meaning in this decaying dirt
Fires, ready to blister, the brands are ready for flesh
Peel back your soul for these flames to ingest.
Walk through an inferno to skin the devil in his sleep
Slit the wrists of god to drink the blood at his feet
Eat the hearts of a thousand women and the children they raise
Crush
Shackled. To a church in the dark of the woods.
Overwhelmed. Cold wraps around my heart.
I have nailed the meat to my skin
So the crows can be my next of kin
I fell in love with the darkness so I followed it in
To alters of loving anguish and healing sin

Prepare to have these riffs dig way up in your brain cause this album has more hooks than a Hellraiser flick. No half measured bullshit here. Unapologetically metal for metal fans. If the Gates of Hell open it's only cause Satan wants to spin this record. Colin & Jacki
