Jaded Black - Corpsewood Manor Lyrics

Built my fortress up brick by brick
All this controversy made the skeptics
Left to a world made of occultist lust
Never once thought I'd see it turn to dust
How dare they mock me outside my castle walls
I sometimes wish I could just end it all
Distant bodies will soon become aligned
A brand new tale for the walls to remind
The devil's ways bring me hate
I just keep living none the wiser
Inhalant views, Reborn anew
Welcome home to the Manor
Outsiders, those heathens
Never will they come inside
They speak of my morals
Their judgments are correct
Secrets left inside a darkened room
Waiting for my return again
Escape bittersweet reality
Reaper staring beneath me
My eyes completely oblivious
Strangers induce fornication
We act as we feel like
This is my new reality
Come join this place
Embrace this call
Please have no fear
You are safe here
Hiding from them
Sanctuary
Inside we hide
Things we abide
May you enter us
Inside this room
My worst nightmare is coming true
A plot is now conceived
Leave us begging
Now we're a prey to your game
Dead of night
Concealing your every move
Silence
The people in which you align with
Loathe us
Jealousy in your mind
Takes over
The riches you claim that we have
Unrelenting
The price they put on my head
Means something
All that we've done for you
How dare you
Held at my will
Chained to one place
Begging at your mercy
Chains to my arms
Gagged at the mouth
Made to watch my lover die
The guns now pointing at him, unable to scream in disbelief
Demanding the riches at once
The house we built was empty of that
His life now on the line
Before I know it, his skull caves in
I writhe in my seat in horror as he becomes motionless
Watching the gushing blood stain the hardwood
I cry out in agony
His spirit leaves the world
Now I'm sure of this: my bitter end has come at last
The plans become apparent to me
Slaughter the weak, Pillage the dead
No being will survive
Ransoming my life
I gave them a place to go, a place to escape reality
Given circumstance it seems I'm to blame here
I didn't want to die like this
Feeling the steel against my chin
Increasing sense of panic
The fear sets in
My life flashes before my eyes
Reminiscent
One last chance they give to me
I can't submit!
I beg to them, tears in my eyes
Ending my life, the devil awaits
They rummage through the remains finding nothing
Turns out I was telling the truth
No condemnation
Was I backstabbed or robbed by these strangers
Citizens condemn us in death
Now I can see, I asked for this
