Madder Mortem

Madder Mortem - The Traitor's Mark lyrics

The traitor's mark

I see myself through read, dead eyes

I make myself this prison

For Babylon the time has come

This time I'm sure you'll listen

This is the day

(A given word)

This is the hour

(was broken twice)

Nothing's forgiven and nothing

will even the score

I hold my seed, a perfect hate

I make this mask a weapon

For every time I lied myself

a tenfold to your burden

This is the day

(A given word)

This is the hour

(was broken twice)

Nothing's forgiven and nothing

will even the score

No morning comes to tie my hands

in tired sleep

The love I left to die alone

is all I keep

My blood is silence in my veins

It all ends here

The final bond of innocence

the last to tear

The last bitter step

Through ruins and dirt

Only one deed remains:

To lay it all at your feet, dead

I mark you red, a traitor's mark

I name an "M" for malice

For all those years I lived a lie

One pound of flesh from your body

This is the day

(A given word)

This is the hour

(was broken twice)

Nothing but ashes to mourn for

I have betrayed

all that I am

Nothing's forgiven and nothing

will even the score
