ANATHEMA - MEMENTO MORI lyrics

rate me

My life's minds plagued by lyssophobia

In a cage solitude locks me in

As the dar blackened walls close in on me

Dementia strikes, there's no turning back

Drowning in the stygian sea

As those voices repeat to me my malediction

Memento Mori

Remember you must die

A gratuitous wraith of violence

Blots out the light of my mind

For on this night someone must pay

For the cost of my life

For me to escape the curse of perdition

This poor, weaker being must receive pain

As you wince at the actions of my sadist ways

And cry at the throes of your moribund state

A Daemon issues your last rites

Pater Noster Upto In Terra

I break, I twist, I burn, I destroy

Memento Mori

As the candle of life, that burned in your heart

Is doused by the grip of death's hand

Asmodeus, the spirit of lust

Bears his necrophile ways

For the wishes of the demon in black

My largesse in life should be immortality

Dislike the weak, mortal humans

But in life there's always death

A multitude are born to be damned

His perdisized body will burn forever

In the scorching flames of Gehenna.
