Black Vatican

Preaching to the wicked, on the tenets of ire
A sermon of malevolence for the unwise
I feel a change swelling inside

A terror manifesting itself to the light
I can't stop and why would I try?
Becoming what I long denied

There isn't a safe way that I could ever tell you
And I won't remember this battery that befell you

The gold and black emerging through the white of the eye
Unretractable claws of the vile
I feel a change swelling inside

I'm girding for the purging of myself in the fire
Seeing red until I go blind
Becoming what I've long denied for all this time

There isn't a safe way I could ever tell you
And I won't remember this battery that befell you
And yet again I waken to an unfamiliar place
I'm dreading this is the day the blood on my hands came from your face

Don't stay, save your life
And leave me behind
Don't stay, save your life
And leave me behind

Sinking my teeth into you
Hurting within
And I wish it were untrue
But this is what I am

Don't stay, save your life
And leave me behind
Don't stay, you'd never survive
The changing inside of me!
