Lyrics
UNFORTUNATE INCARNATE
In the warm starving a cracking is heard
Distorted and writhing, rejecting the birth
A hatred from nothing, disgusted, ashamed
Meaningless and banal, destructive and vain
The air torn full out by claws from the lungs
Collapsed and convulsing, innocence undone
Blootshot the eyes burning with tears
Swollen by anger, insecurity and fear
Chaos and violence concealed by this shell
Remaining unbroken, confining the Hell
A stake up the ribcage up through the mind
Feeding the fire, infecting the life
By bleeding or needing now rendered so weak
Cursed with desire, scarred by deceit
Never surrender and never avail
Unfortunate Incarnate of the knight once left pale
