MALACODA LYRICS

1. Penny Dreadful

We've found the moment when the hunter becomes prey
We'll become lower than the lowest of men
I would murder the world for her
I need those unafraid to look beneath

Life without death is my mountain and river

There is a pantheon of Devils and their pawns
They hunt for their prize whispering their own lies
This is their demimonde - a cold world without God
No pain and no more light, embrace eternal night

We have our parts to play
And mine is being human
I've lived with a secret that rivals the Devil's own
All seek the Scorpion Mother of the Damned

Men are not Gods they are Hell on Earth

2. I Got A Letter

I got a letter from you today
Should I listen to what it has to say

You said you would bring me back one day
But you never did, you never did

Forgotten is your face, forgotten is this place
A town of silence replaced with violence
Oh God you were so sick, this fog has grown so thick
I cannot find my way, will you be here today

There was a hole here but now it's gone
This war zone where my inner demons won

This dark descent is your Inferno
I will never let you let me go

3. Pandemonium

Rumination is the cure
To the pain of our plight
This fire we will endure
We'll rise into the night

Our denial of servitude
Is survival - Vicissitude

The rebel speaks
Awakened from denial
We will make a stand
They'll know our guile

A fallen angel's grin
Embodiment of bedlam
Carry the flag of sin
We are Pandemonium

4. The Wild Hunt

Awake yet asleep in a violent state
Gently they weep for nothingness' fate
Their dead men's hearts still hold a beat
Idols torn apart, decayed underneath

And when the ice reaches the sky
Is when I'll arrive
A sign of impending doom
I've come to take you to the place
Where innocence dies
A place where death prevails

We have come to take all the young

It's said they were kings and legends long dead
Riding beasts of war, permeating dread
They whisper at the door to the end of time
Their breath like knives as they recite this rhyme

5. Linger Here

I've seen it all before, this disappointment
I yearn for something more than your judgment

Linger here in the space between
Are these shackles in my head
On my heart this Hell has fed
Linger here with the obscene
I had to see it all
From the depths I did crawl

I've played the waiting game
And now you want me to see
Your demands as an apology

Linger here with us for a while
You claim that you are pure
I've seen your kind before
Linger here and become defiled
My soul's been torn apart
Time to find a new start

6. There Will Always Be One

Look upon my works
And despair
There's nothing for you here
If you dare
This darkness is my own
Mine to keep
Though it has grown tall
There's more to go

There will always be one
Who won't heed the wise
There will always be one
Birthing our demise
The seed has sown
And drenched in your blood
Let it all become known
Things are as they should

These rules are not mine
They're etched in stone
Who do you think you are
To demand my soul
The shadows or the day
Are one and the same
You cannot have the warmth
Without the flame
