The ghost of our sins came calling again
Leading us on and pulling us in
Promising pleasures to keep tame
Feeding our flesh slices of shame
Bleeding out secrets with laden and guilt
Inflicting atonement for all the blood spilt
Scars hidden on our canvas adorn and reveal
Exposing our truth through lies and steel
Condemned by desires so dark and unspoken
Salvation delivered albeit a token
Martyrs of suffering crucifer in silence
Eternally masking our kingdoms with violence
Expressions of rage fade into vapor
Confessions of crimson ensuring our capture
Sadistic in nature won't offer repentance
Slaves to the blade our skinned last sentence
