The Gloom in the Corner
Single • 2020
In the final moments A hand reaches out from the black And as it touches my skin My buried past unlocks; I remember everything I walk the desolate plain between time and space; A god's hand guided the way I’m shown a past I've never known Where a violent tyranny reigned And as I look at the time between then and now; I can see humanity hasn't changed; We kill what we love Despite the fear of losing it forever Wе don’t change, we evolvе the weapons we make To destroy everything and ourselves The colour of warfare bleeds a shade of grey I know cause I'm the one who cut the vein One of seven I pillaged the land in ways familiar to now We traded sticks for swords and swords for guns And guns for the skies that drop Hail Mary's with a missile strike Vanity reigns the weak And destroys gods who oppose; Not even Christ is safe I watched your god die He didn't die in vain, he pleaded for his life I drove the nails through his fucking hands And watched him bleed with a smile on my face Despite my fealty, I was struck down by the king; He killed what he loved in fear of losing everything We don't change, we evolve the weapons we make To destroy everything and ourselves The colour of warfare bleeds a shade of grey I know cause I'm the one who cut the vein I'm the one who cut the... I am not the first Gloom and I won't be the last I’m not true to much, but my word And my word will bring down hell King Baphicho will die by me On his knees in front of a mass grave Of those who opposed me No god is above me Buried beneath the sand I slept for what feels like eternity I’ll make good on my word My word will bring hell down No god is above me
