Damned, I Descend Lyrics

Filled with self-loathing
I push you away
You cannot control me today
You cannot take my heart
You cannot claim my soul
I have none to give

Eyes of the angel
And smile of the beast
You took me so easily
I gave in to desire
And fell into despair
Your delirium
Confined within a dream
Embraced my destiny
Even unto death

If this is the turning point
Why have I taken the wandering path?
Does this mean I have no choice?
The fallow field compels me to my knees

Thoughts of resistance
Fade swiftly away
I cannot repel you today
I cannot save my soul
I can’t protect my heart
My oath unfulfilled
Defy your influence?
Deny your certainty?
My mind is undone

Now there is no turning back
I have accepted your black currency
Subverting my own free will
I bury my contempt in hallowed ground

Damned I descend into your hollow hell
A life torn to pieces
Never to rise until I’m your willing slave
Finally broken
Damned I descend into your emptiness
And damned I surrender
Never to rise, only to worship you
Finally broken at your feet (Ah)

Ah Ah
Deep in my broken heart
Ah Ah Ah
Lies the tiniest seed
Ah Ah Ah
Core of my fiery will
Ah Ah Ah
My secret inferno, I long to be free

Solo

Damned I descend into delirium
Euphoric denial
Damned I descend, never to rise again
Eternally shattered

Damned I descend into your hollow hell
A life torn to pieces
Never to rise until I’m your willing slave
Finally broken
Damned I descend into your emptiness
And damned I surrender
Never to rise, only to worship you
Finally broken at your feet

Filled with self-loathing
I push you away
You cannot control me today
You cannot take my heart
You cannot claim my soul
I have none to give
