Lyrics Faustian Pact (feat. Kitty Got Claws) - Zaflon

Sick heathens acting darker than dusk
Crickets creaking the night settles like dust
On your old desk we fead to the flame
We burned everything in the heat of the change
You took the ashes and used them like war paint
And the embers singed my arm since I lack self restraint
Icy water with a glacial hum filling up the sink
Let that lean stream run

Inflict me predictability and patterns we're caught up in
Consume me like the pills they're meant to help
But they do nothing
Drink every last drop of blood
A vampiric mirage
And you're stuck in the mud
The river of cells flowing
Biblical hell growing
Your body's beat is slowing
Should have listened to the omen
Take care of yourself
Your talent and poise
Sea shells blare white noise and I'm taunted
By that voice

They call me the dark warden
Bringer of despair
I'm the Kraken you let out
When you let down your hair
I'm every damaged braincell from every drunken night
And a buildup of concussion form every street fight
I'm you're own self-doubt and you're own self loathing
And truth can be hear with every word spoken
Your dignity and prowess I leave on the floor broken
And paranoid delusions form when you've been smoking

He roars like a lion in a pit
Scrambling claws against the walls of my brain like
"Let me in" gelatine buy one get one free with extra
Sin session binge doing everything to get away from him

And his outlook, well he's grounded in my nightmares
Watching from the corner of the room in his high chair
Mum and dad I'm quite scared but I don't see their faces
Through the haze at me with solar rays
Rely on my pain again

Take me away
I wanna get away from nights off my face
Even when deranged in the strangest place
Change the name drive it down the highway speeding
Every crevice bleeding and the pattern keeps repeating

You're a slave to me, give endless days to me
Every wasted day scanning web pages for ages
While your brains freeze
I make stains on your memories
Blasting gages through every
Happy thought you had caged
Are you ready for the next stage?
I'm all about the rage
Jump straight form your heart
Don't listen to the headaches
Next page reads like a faustian pact
For every high you've ever had
You're in debt to pay back

Fakers with their snakey plans
Taking every way they can
Promise me the promised land
Always want the upper hand
The tables always turn
Thank you for expressing your concern
I'm a robot AI with every word I learn
Battery spattering as they burn
Acid leaking licked by the bonfire
I might be fucking with the wrong guy
Am I rights a wrong rights
Upside-down and to the north
My compass has all gone crazy
As my vision distorts and I pause
Slow down shrapnel flying
A colliding crash like lightning
I'm dying oh fuck I'm dying
Oh fuck it's over
Never got to say that I could dye sober
I'm dying.
Oh fuck I'm dying oh fuck it's over
Never got to say I could die sober
