Forgive Me Father - Benighted, Trevor Strnad

The weight of my miscreation crushing my shoulders

A distant echo reminds me of the abhorrent mistake

You made me

Humble servant of your unknown will

Following your steps in obscurity

Forgive me Father full of guilt I shall bend

Forgive me Father your reign comes to an end

The thorns blessed my miserable flesh

Embracing the cadaverous condition of a degenerative seed

I wear my own stigmas, I owe you nothing

Not even the filthy bile burning my stomach

This is my legacy, chronicles of an ordinary hate

Against the perfidious re-creator

All these children are mine, my own manking

Transcended in submission

I stand in front of my throne, triumphant and bloodthirsty

The authority long forgotten

The cold grasp of death vanished

I kneel in front of you, guilty and begging

Your severe glance crushing me to the ground

Forgive me Father

Liar

I absolve you from all your burdens

Mankind

Through the evil incarnated

Mankind

By needles regenerated

My sons, my sins

I can’t hear the scream of the horses anymore

Your silence remains insane and deafening

Forgive me Father your reign comes to an end

My rage is consuming me, I can barely see my leash

Deforming my neck in a heavy breath

Proud victim of a voluntary slavery
