Altar of Flesh

Purify my body as I fixate upon sins
Do you remember?
Climb the altar of flesh as I beckon you through the winds
Cherish your final moments so close
As time waits for no man's false hope
Dictate all you shall but don't backpedal to the eyes of farewell
A mentor to some but a failure to the masses
Beggars through a serpent tongue
Serpent tongue
You failed me
Never will you atone for what you set out to be
Through stained teeth (stained teeth), tender eyes (tender eyes)
I know your roots beneath
Beggars through a serpent tongue
Altar of flesh
Altar of flesh
Cherish your final moments so close
As time waits for no man's false hope
Dictate all you shall
I know you're backpedaling to the eyes of farewell
As you were a mentor to me, but you have failed me
Fucking failed me
We could've been kings, but you let your ego get the best
Now bend thy knee
And take your so-deserved rest
We could've been kings
Altar of flesh
Peel at your flesh and we surpass the boundaries of suffering
The king was divine, now a shell of a man
The ashes moved off the floor
We have ascended above human
This is where we lay in the sickness
This is where we lay
