MOONSKIN LYRICS

1. Subjugation and Oppression

Conquering death advancing in a line
Sanguine massacre, fate intertwined
Break down, chaos abounds
Bow down, a new sovereign crowned

Get down on the ground

Empire balancing on precipice
Crumbling granite falling into the abyss
A torn garment, a bloody dress
Symbolism for lost innocence

Bow down to my will,
You will

Get down
Bow down
Bow down
Bow down

I am your master now,
You will

Get down
Bow down
Bow down
Bow down

Get down
(I break you)
Bow down
(Entertain you)
Bow down
(I save you)
Break down
(Enslave you)

2. Lunar Ascendence

As I lie here
Bleeding life, sand through my hands
A cold smile from the wicked moon
Dying, wounded, beyond repair

Degradation, exhilaration
Cursed strength ensnared, your creation
Arise
Arise
Carnal hunger, beast within I despise

Spilled blood a crimson rose
Bathed in your pale light
As daylight draws to a close
I will rise tonight

Desecration, titillation,
Rising strength, violent temptation,
Ensnared
Enslaved
Seduced & lusting, desire depraved

Enslaver
Enslaver
Enslaver
You are mine

Enslavement,
Subjugation,
Architect of my salvation

A slave to your presence,
Your cold pale tune
Enchanted by your essence,
Cruel seductress, my boon

Enslaver
Enslaver

Subjugation, exaltation
Euphoric power, intoxicating reformation
I rise
I rise
Insatiable thirst, destruction epitomized

Enslaver
Enslaver

Euphoria, dysphoria
My enchantress, my Victoria
I am
I am
Stronger than ever before.

3. Altering The Entity

As I dream, the world crashes down
Leaving me alone among ruins, falling
Down

I have been battered down
But again I will rise
From battered shores to autumn skies
But I have not lost my mind
And again you will find
Everything will unwind
I will build it up again, my dear

As ashes fall like rain
I swore I would never fall again
I yearn to be emotionally unchained
Everything the same
Nothing will change
I will build it up again
The predators will all be slain
As the foul howl in pain
Once again I will reign

I am the architect
With sand I will build my dreams
Give in to destiny
Rebuild the entity
I am the terminus
All roads lead to me
Transcend the conduit
Altering the entity

Soon you will begin to see
What the world has left for thee
And again we will rise

As we begin to fly
Into the darkened sky
There is no reason why
You would deny

As ashes fall like rain
I swore I would never fall again
I yearn to be emotionally unchained
Everything the same
Nothing will change
I will build it up again
The predators will all be slain
As the foul howl in pain
Once again I will reign

I am the architect
With sand I will build my dreams
Give in to destiny
Rebuild the entity
I am the terminus
All roads lead to me
Transcend the conduit
Altering the entity

4. Paranoid

[originally by Black Sabbath]

Finished with my woman
'Cause she couldn't help
Me with my mind
People think I'm insane
Because I am drowning all the time

All day long I think of things
But nothing seems to satisfy
Think I'll lose my mind
If I don't find something to pacify

Can you help me?
Occupy my brain
Oh yeah

Hell yeah

I need someone to show me
The things in life that I can't find
I can't see the things
That make true happiness,
I must be blind

Make a joke and I will sigh
And you will laugh
And I will cry
Happiness I cannot feel
And love to me is so unreal

And so as you hear these words
Telling you now
Of my state
I tell you to enjoy life
I wish I could but it's too late
