All you see is a shell
There is nothing left inside
I'm dead to this world
I'm driven by a yearning to end all life
Tears of joy in my eyes
As you scream, as you die

[Chorus]
I have blown out the candle
I have extinguished the flame of life
For I am sworn to the fallen
And their words they are mine

That's why I dominate, that's why I remain
Words of self-hate and horrors are the teachings that I proclaim

I feel it burning inside
The darkness that grows stronger endlessly
The force I serve craves no names
Your souls are the ultimate sacrifice

Open your veins!

That's why I dominate, that's why I remain

[Chorus]

As you stare into my eyes
Loveless, cold
You'll read the message of the end
Since eons foretold
It feels like I'm caressed by the dead
Invisible fingers tear and shred
I see no future ahead
Towards an early grave I'm led

[Chorus]

Alone in the night I will descend into the waters dark and old.
Eaten up by this yearning to end my life
I will lower my head, breathe in, then die
