Ageless Oblivion - The Midas Throat lyrics

The curse of the Midas Throat The touch of your hand can stop the beating of hearts and the voice of man You will act as d**h until the day you become d**h yourself Wielding the power of a god as you r lust for gold numbers your days Your wish has been granted But a double edged sword that evaded your beloved Is the curse of the Midas Throat In madness and fear you embrace your beloved And as she stands lifeless you curse the gods But this is what you asked for The golden touch You wouldn't heed the warning of what it may cost In your paranoia They conspire against you They'll take your crown and leave your bones Unmarked in the ground Neck deep in riches Neck deep in distress The no mans land between body and mind The pleasure of wealth but a body on borrowed time Three days without water, a fate no man can survive There's no way of escape and nowhere to hide You leave a path in your wake like no other Your plight, this curse, your desire To gorge on poisonous metal Immolation by fire Cheat the gods with suicide It's immorlation by fire Cheat the gods with suicide 'I am still Emperor' Neck deep in riches Neck deep in distress The no mans land between body and mind The pleasure of wealth but a body on borrowed time The no mans land between life and d**h As the only thing which pa**es through your throat will be your last breath In d**h, wealth is irrelevant, beg for deliverance from starvation DIONYSUS Hear this prayer In d**h I live through centuries in all I have created DIONYSUS Hear this prayer Statues of loved ones withstand the test of time What cannot feed will always cease to exist A fundamental order that has no exception Your insatiable grandeur Took for granted lucid means to survive Sound the horn Our monarch is dead For he now lies with a severed throath
