Mortify Songtext
Out here waiting
Beyond the wire
A holy longing
Consumes my mind
Anticipating
Ecstatic fire
I′m out here hanging
On razor wire
My head throbs hot
My limbs are numb
A fever thirst
Dry tongue is struck dumb
My soul cries out
My body churns
With cramping lust
I pray it must come
Anticipating
Ecstatic fire
I'm out here waiting
My idée fixe
Burns in this flesh
Feverish wish
Await abject
Focused on the searing light
Mantra drumming through my mind
My painful path to paradise
This manic thirst for you
Out here waiting
Beyond the wire
A world not made
For such as I
I tremble like
A moth in flame
My hunger is
My only faith
I dwell in shame
For I am filth
Afflicted with
This sick sack of sin
My mortal flesh
I flagellate
I′ll thrash myself
Into fucking bits
Chase the object
Of my love
Embrace apocalypse
My idée fixe
Burns in this flesh
Feverish wish
Await abject
Focused on the searing light
Mantra drumming through my mind
My painful path to paradise
This manic thirst for you
Mortified, sanctified
My idée fixe
Burns in this flesh
Feverish wish
Await abject
Focused on the searing light
Mantra drumming through my mind
My painful path to paradise
This manic thirst for you
I yearn to join
With my beloved
In sacrament
Of flesh and blood
Beyond the wire
A holy longing
Consumes my mind
Anticipating
Ecstatic fire
I′m out here hanging
On razor wire
My head throbs hot
My limbs are numb
A fever thirst
Dry tongue is struck dumb
My soul cries out
My body churns
With cramping lust
I pray it must come
Anticipating
Ecstatic fire
I'm out here waiting
My idée fixe
Burns in this flesh
Feverish wish
Await abject
Focused on the searing light
Mantra drumming through my mind
My painful path to paradise
This manic thirst for you
Out here waiting
Beyond the wire
A world not made
For such as I
I tremble like
A moth in flame
My hunger is
My only faith
I dwell in shame
For I am filth
Afflicted with
This sick sack of sin
My mortal flesh
I flagellate
I′ll thrash myself
Into fucking bits
Chase the object
Of my love
Embrace apocalypse
My idée fixe
Burns in this flesh
Feverish wish
Await abject
Focused on the searing light
Mantra drumming through my mind
My painful path to paradise
This manic thirst for you
Mortified, sanctified
My idée fixe
Burns in this flesh
Feverish wish
Await abject
Focused on the searing light
Mantra drumming through my mind
My painful path to paradise
This manic thirst for you
I yearn to join
With my beloved
In sacrament
Of flesh and blood
