When the Guillotine Falls

from Rot of Ages by Abscession

/

lyrics

I awake in the night
Chains hold me down
Awaiting first light
Disorientation

For a moment I don't know where I am
But then it hits
I have been damned
To be released from it all
To feel the blade cut deep
When the guillotine falls

And I howl into the night
As I realize
There’s nothing to be done

No benevolent god will save me
No man will say their prayers
They reek of death
I taste their abject fear

I am but beast to be put down
For my hideous crime
I wear the sinner's crown
A gift divine

Judgment of god
Passed out by men
Kill them all
And let god sort them

The harlots, the beggars, the thieves
The children of night
The fallen without a reprieve

They have been damned
To be released from it all
To feel the blade cut deep
When the guillotine falls

And they howl into the night
As they realize
There's nothing to be done
