Scalding the Burnt Songtext
von Mortiis

Master stares
With his only eye
Master shouts
But he cannot cry
Tries to bite
But he has no teeth
Sucking it up
Like a human leech

Master sits
Like a glutton at the feast
Master feeds
Inside the belly of the beast
I′m not you
I know this
I'd rather drink
To death on your finest piss


For the sake of
Who I thought you were
For the sake of
The illusion that you are
God has such a
Pretty charisma
God is such an
Attractive enigma

No I′ll never understand
So this is your gain?
No sedation known to man
Could ever numb this pain

We're stealing the earned
We're scalding the burnt
We scream at the crying
We′re killing the dying

Master stares
With his only eye
Master shouts
But he cannot cry
Tries to bite
But he has no teeth
Sucking it up
Like a human leech


Master sits
Like a glutton at the feast
Master feeds
Inside the belly of the beast
I′m not you
I know this
I'd rather drink
To death on your finest piss

We′re stealing the earned
We're scalding the burnt
We scream at the crying
We′re killing the dying

I hate us
I hate us
I hate us
I hate us
