Nightkin - Abhorrent Rite Of Unbinding lyrics

Life is too short for me To learn all I must Knowledge and mysteries Books gathering dust To hone my eldritch might More lifetimes I must live Escape mortality The gods will not forgive Deep in the darkest texts I find the rites that I need Unbinding soul from flesh Requires that I bleed Mutilation Excarnation Defilement Condemnation Open my veins Into the golden well it drips Inscribe forbidden words Upon the parchment strips Perform the ritual Black magic will create Precious phylactery To keep my essence safe From this day forward I will never be more whole Into this ebon box I seal away my soul Initiation Incantation Recitation Invocate The years wear on The flesh has fallen off my my bones My power grows As I devour ancient tomes A crown upon my skull My eyes are empty pools I drape my bones in silk Replace my teeth with j**els Enslaving mortal men I feast upon their lives My soul lives on Until the end of days arrives Coronation Profanation Conflagration Ruination
