Set in a cloudy haze of addiction and self abuse
Red light flashing
My heart is pounding
The soul is crashing
My mind is drowning

My heart is aching
There is no light
God I'm forsaking
I know it's not right

Feeling the beast
It overcomes me
I prepare the feast
Never to be free

Crying out in prayer
Screaming in pain
In the beast's lair
I'm being slain

The flesh is torn
My soul is dark
Now reborn
I show the mark

The spirit is restless
My body is still
Trapped in this fortress
I got my fill.
