Messiah Complex II: A Glutton for Punishment
Richard Henshall, Ross Jennings, Raymond Hearne, Charlie Griffiths, Diego Tejeida, Conner Green
[Verse 1]
Greed and guile color my life with aurus rose
Temper my yearning
[Bridge 1]
Abdicate the throne, majesty
Gold topples the crown
Blood festers the ground
[Verse 2]
Hell on Earth, my blessing and my curse
How did I fail my holy grail? Taper my hunger
[Chorus 1]
(With your compound eyes)
Parasites leeched upon the guilt
(And a call to arms)
Paradise led me down a path to the core
[Post-Chorus]
Fail
Try
Fall
Rise
[Bridge 2]
Scars run deep, tormenting me with her reptilian glare
How is she forsaking me, when my devil may care?
[Chorus 2]
(With your compound eyes)
Parasites echo through the walls
(And a call to arms)
Paradise, breathe me in, I'm dead to the world
[Outro]
