Ashes (2005) track 5

Tied up and gagged

Hooded and tagged

They're all yours to command

I am corpse, I am carrion prey

I have a crow at each brow

plucking eyes in my mask of death

The darkness is complete

Who's the hooded one, mother mine?

Who is gagged when all are silent?

and bitten when we move

Inflamed! My mask is burning

The night is dead; dark, putrid flesh turning

pon a chair in the dying corner

I am your bagful of fear

Ill commit, Ill admit

Ill be the dagger, drive me in

Ill be all motionless and still

My river runs within - still and deep

I am beast, I am carrion prey to the Cyclops tribe

String me up to a cherry tree

come one, come all - and hang with me

I'm already hogtied - entangled in your marionette strings

I am dancing

the embodiment of fear

a shake for every fearful tear

a ruckus for the righteous

In the end

They no longer know

cast stones into mirrors - onto themselves

Mother mine!

Stab yourself, mother mine

bleed your own river, dark and wide

Mine runs within, still and deep

Dont shake me so, it will overflow
