Corrupted from the core
This song is about desires, how badly we want them, how we end up getting them and how we betray ourselves in doing so. It's also about how cruel fate can be.

Corrupted from the core
Dissolved in agony forevermore
Slit delusions apart and crippled the feast
Disposed these choices tainted by deceit
Beyond the lines which imagination’s crossed
Beyond the words into the cesspit it tossed
A revelation divines the hatred
Bound by the decrees of the sacred
Contaminate your flesh with the dying cure
Ferment your blood with remains of the pure
If you find it all
Even if you find it all after the final haul
I will wait across the shackles and chains
Dividing you and me like your skin from your veins
Corrupted from the core
Dissolved in agony forevermore
Slit delusions apart and crippled the feast
Disposed these choices tainted by deceit
Beyond the lines which imagination’s crossed
Beyond the words into the cesspit it tossed
Sequential trauma stinging behind your spine
One for the death and the dividing sign
Symbolic phantasm curses your every breath
When insanity is the only friend you’ve got left
Rejoice in the holographic promise
That allured you to this faithless abyss
Stuffed like a doll with your hopes adrift
Suspended in the illusion of the paradigm shift
Torch your hopes right before they depart
Skewer those feelings through a stiffened heart
Let wrath possess obsessions you’d caress
Healing wounds redemption’s bled
Stitching back memories lost in the tides
Fearing a septic recover if you’d survive
For a past or a future disembowels belief
A present holding onto every shade of conceit
Prey on the holy prayers
Nightmares reside in your corpse
Stoke your soul to ignite the flare
Hersey bound against the bewitching remorse
Even if I’d plague your thoughts
I’d gamble to confess these words
You’re not alone nor besieged by hordes
But a lost memoir abandoned ashore
The impact petered out from the cleansing gale
Leaving behind a faithful course
Never will you tread this trail
Neither disgrace nor the valor
Corrupted from the core
Dissolved in agony forevermore
Slit delusions apart and crippled the feast
Disposed these choices tainted by deceit
Beyond the lines which imagination’s crossed
Beyond the words into the cesspit it tossed
