The Pillar

[Verse 1]

Dressed in a shroud, preparing the standoff

A meeting of the minds must be understood

Benevolent grin couldn't be kinder

The ceremony guest is unveiling his hood

[Verse 2]

Draining power straight from the pillar

Grisly affection no one denies

The darker the room, the warmer the climate

For an unsuspected thrill homicide

[Pre-Chorus]

Open mindedness

You're old enough now

Narrow mindedness

Lethargic is thought, your brain slowly rots

Lust for the taste, no time to waste

[Chorus]

It gives me, it gives me strength

It gives me strength over you (Yes I do)

[Verse 3]

Waited the day that I'd be discovered

Oblivious fools take the longest time

Endless travels through laws of nature

Opening boxes, oh, what a find

[Verse 4]

The maximum pain with minimum pleasure

Strive for the things that you never can have

Chasing a dream that seems so appealing

Only to awaken on the wrong path

[Pre-Chorus]

Open mindedness

You're old enough to know

Narrow mindedness

Lethargic is thought, your brain slowly rots

Lust for the taste, no time to waste

[Chorus]

It gives me, it gives me strength

It gives me strength over you

Over you

Over you

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 5]

Begging to be the servants pet

Breaking free from the horde of norm

Futile transition, plenty of residue

The cheerful flesh is rolled into form

[Verse 2]

Draining power straight from the pillar

A grisly affection no one denies

The darker the room, the warmer the climate

For an unsuspected thrill homicide

Homicide

[Chorus]

It gives me, it gives me strength

It gives me strength over you
