04. Paradise Lost

Deny Thyself
by Altarheart
       
Lyrics:

Shame is the latest refrain
Indicative of this spiral
Blame filling me with disdain
Result of my denial
I’ve failed, no longer can prevail
Leave me buried here in the earth
I took the bite, know wrong from right
And still I choose this curse

All I bring is death
With sin in every breath

Lord, forgive me, for I know what I do
For I know what I do, and yet I still do it

Self-inflict my crucifix
Remember me when I fail to fix this hardened heart
Due in part to desperate pleas for another start
The taste was sweet then sour
Remember me this hour

Turn your back, turn to salt
Touch the fruit, inherit fault
Guilty one, guilty all
As we wait for the master’s call
The taste was sweet then sour
