The Persecution Complex Lyrics

God in rapture
God enraptured by love for you
Frail, God fell to his knees
Feeble, fragile
"Are you alone?"
Whispered voices
Kept secrets
Eyes stare so cold
I'll vanish

I lay my body
I close my eyes and plead to end my life
Then I await
Remain
I pray that there is something

How can we love if you are not here?
How can we touch if you are not real?

I lay by a river
In peace
Looked up
She's there
I've had enough

So, I awoke
I rose
Held hope
But there was nothing

Wait.
For what?
How long will it take
to understand her role in my world
There must be something
Wait.
For what?
How long will this go on?
Obsession fails to explain this void
I'm lost
There is nothing

Imposter
You lied
Ignominious shaming for a smile
I hear the tones of your voice melding,
characteristically blind
You'd have known that there would come this time
Now I hate all that I am
I weighed myself down with rocks in the riverbed
I like the torture of kissing the surface
Are you happy now
I question the past and every scene of life
That brought me to this cessation
It all comes back to you

Born sinner
Pure hearts inborn to burn
Heaven in flames saw the cremation of God
They'll never know the pain
My heroine died the day that I saw her smile
