IAMTHESHOTGUN LYRICS

1. 1692

Gasping for life
As you thrash and you writhe
Let the light leave your eyes
Renounce your love and your faith

Plead and deny
To the wolves of the night
But it won't save your life
From the flames that burn heresy

Flames that burn heresy
Renounce your love and your faith

Bleeding flower, sway with me
Breed me a king, under these Salem trees

Congregations made of fear and spite
The clocking is ticking and you're out of time
Now you're running hoping not to die

Run
Now you're fucking dead

I'm not guilty
I'm not guilty
I'm not guilty
I'm not guilty

2. Metanoia

God forgive me
I'm down in my knees
I stopped her pulse
And left her deceased
It took 9 days
It took 9 days
None of us are saints

Flesh of my flesh
Blood of her blood
Deliver innocence back home

Self inflicted
I search for solace
The pins and needles
Sink deep in my skin

Let her die
The eyes of grace
Slowly dilate

Paradise Lost

An empty shell, condemn me.

Rest your head.

Self inflict, rejoice, condemn me

Rest your soul.

Abandoned left to bleed alone

Lacerate my skin
Lacerate my skin

Self inflict salvation

Condemn me

3. Dögmå

Behold vicious tyrants
Confine my own beliefs
Brand your sermon deep inside my skin

Teeth clenched with fire in your eyes
Holy water like gasoline
Set me ablaze, burn me alive

Abysses for the profound, nuance and shudders for the refined.
The comfort of opinion
And, in brief, all that is rare for the rare.
The discomfort of thought

To often we hold fast to the cliches of our forbears
The comfort of oppression

Truth doesn't pay homage to creeds
The discomfort of reasoning

Holy water like gasoline
Drench my sins and filthy self beliefs

I want to watch you burn
I want to watch them burn
I want to (Set the whole world ablaze)
I want to watch the whole world burn alive

I want to watch you fucking burn

4. Dominion

Groans of the dying rise from the city
And the souls of the wounded cry

Cry out for help
Left hopeless

They that hate
Shall be clothed with shame
And the dwelling place of the wicked
Shall come to nought

Parasitic, the air I breathe is gifted
Like an abundant plague
Unholy trinity

Denied a life, lived in fear
Submit to serve and be at peace
Theocratic, the air I breathe is gifted
Like an abundant plague
Unholy trinity

Who darkens my counsel?
With words without knowledge
Gird up your loins like a man
And I will question you

You can't escape this

Denied a life lived in fear
Submit to serve and be at peace
Theocratic, the air I breathe is gifted
Like an abundant plague
Unholy trinity
Unholy trinity

Bless me with sores, strike down my flesh and bones, decay, eternal rot.

Lay me in barren
Feet to the crown

All there is now, fear my own doubt
Left hopeless

Strike down my flesh, bless me with sores
Denied a life, submit to serve

5. Cyanide 909

Void of life - revolutionary suicide
Gouge my eyes - I start to panic, I've become manic

Lay your head upon holy grounds

Ingested faith, swells my internal organs
Convulsed in glory, my kingdom awaits

Lay your head upon holy grounds
I am a war hound

God has found his way into my veins
Regurgitate
As I scream his name
Mother Mary mourn for me
Father figure/ Serpent King

Fill my lungs with new life
Vomit the gospel, Disciples of Christ

Father
Fill my lungs with new life
Vomit the gospel, disciples of Christ

Mother Mary mourn for me
Father Figure/ Serpent King
