Lyrics Cantos IV-IX: the Carnal Sins of Incontinence - Homerik

Descend from God
Into the abyss
Of souls eternal
The souls of your sins

Lands of endless pain
Across the sea of woe
Before the tempest rain
We will never know
The dark side of piety
Illusions of divinity
The monster inside of me
Bleeds from my mind

Descend from God
Into the abyss
Of souls eternal (My mind)
The souls of your sins
Enter the Inferno
Where choices you made
Echo forever
Within God's children

"Marked!
This one belongs... to the blackest soul..."
These circles will be
The dawn of your suffering
Aged are these seeds
Of blasphemy
Consumed by greed
And envy
It's the price
For eternity
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth
As it is in Hell
Stripped us of humanity
For hope will decay us hollow
Reaching out, insanity
Burned to ash
Time after time

Demon
Malice
Evil
Devil
Demon
Malice
Evil
Devil

Those you thought had loved
Those who held your trust
Swindled by their lust
Swept away to dust
Storms of peril whisk
Souls of lechery
Through the hurricane
With unending pain

Open the pit
Digging tombs of dysphoria
With putrid and lumbering demons
Devouring the souls of the ill-fated
Eating the hearts of humanity
Till the end of time
The end of time

Descend from God
Into the abyss
Of souls eternal
The souls of your sins
Enter the Inferno
Where choices you made
Echo forever
Within God's children

"We must jump."
"We'll die!" yelled Dante. "Wait—can we??"
"Yes. Every time you die in the afterlife
You will slowly lose your soul to madness
And go hollow like the ones in Limbo
Then, it's only a matter of time before you are
Forged again into a demon
Do not fret, however. I will protect you."

Ripping off the flesh
While the blood stains
All their carcasses
The stench of decay
Lingers in the wind
Rotting in digest
The fiends of hunger
Beneath and sunder
The ground from under
Need more
Need more

The souls of humanity flee
Their suffering is the gateway
To enter the belly of the beast
A never-ending eternal feast
Feeding the dog of Hades
You plump and fat
You gluttonous souls
Stumbling around like a pig
Forever locked inside this bowl

Blind by shine
With ferrous eyes
Oh, how my avidity
Sealed my bond
To treasuries
So, pools of gold I bleed
It's my gold (Mine)
It's my gold (Mine)
It's my gold (Mine)
It's my soul (Mine)

Greed and wastefulness of the physical world
A prison they made from the greed they unfurled
Avarice
Smited by demons of covetous stones (Stones)
So beautifully made, from the skin of their bones
In penance they pray for the one who could save (Save)
But never will they see the light of day

Ablazing empathy in embers
A demon born from misery
The anger from my lonely mourn
A broken heart destroyed by scorn
Insurmountable hatred spreads like a disease
And burns inside the heart you curse despite their pleas

Waking up (Awaken anger)
My wrath that sleeps (Awaken anger)
Shadows bind (Awaken anger)
The night to me! (Awaken anger)

Go! Go away! Go! Go!
Go away! Go! Go!

Mindless souls
Without a thought
Filled with rage
So knotted and taut
Now they drown
In their toxic swamp
Repulsive mire
And sullen mud

Under the mud
Choking submerged
In, out
Waves of sin
Ride the rapids
Towards Dis
Make your way across the River Styx

Descend from God
Into the abyss
Of souls eternal
The souls of your sins
Enter the Inferno
Where choices you made
Echo forever
Within God's children

Lord have mercy (have mercy)
Lord have mercy (have mercy)
Lord have mercy (have mercy)
Lord have mercy (have mercy)
