Venom 1-4 Lyrics

We deplete

More slowly than we grow

Built towards the heavens

A monument upon ruins show

What once was fresh and green

Angled upwards

We shaped these stones

Before we knew what the heavens know

Where temptation

Of salvation pulls at

One's mind

Until it becomes so lost in building higher

That it forgets to see

The integretity of tombs embedded

From within emerges a new form

New hatred a venom

We speak of you as a God

And great you are

From within your serum cleansing here and

Proposing suffering's not so hard

The emotional masochism

Exhibited by failure and misery

Is it Lex is it me is it I?

Should I exist within this eternity?

Yes this shell

Where ancients have tied these neurons

So neatly together

To resemble that of a human

Or the vicious whispering of Devon

The one who taught us to survive

Now together this venom

They seep through the pores and Lex becomes

No more

Perhaps there's meaning in these

Nibbles of fear

What's a life fuller

Than could be here?

This hatred isolation

Euphoria and ecstasy

The master of us all

The venom smiles

We are a family

What would you say

To the one above who

Shows you love

Through suffering?

Oh Lex is held

Loved by this agony

Control with no release

I push my knuckles feel no relief

The substance pushes back

Are you in there? are you in there?

Are you in there?!

A wicked smile

Twisted forked he speaks to me

Says to listen I'm all can be trusted

His black is nothingness god it's nothingness

We agree as one

That Lex's lifeforce is waning

CannoT sustain venom pierces me with a sharp

Tooth

And drinks conservatively
