Hell Chose Me - Carnifex

Weapons of war in my hands

I will become what begs to be forgotten

Weapons of war in my hands

Ready to purge this faceless nation

See through the eyes

I am the mastermind sent to open god’s gate to tear down heaven

Tear down heaven

You are the programmed dead sent to look me straight in the face

I’ll tell you what separates truth from faith:

These lies I preach are extending my reach inside of your head

And with my scripture, I will summon the serpent’s tongue

These words will become walls keeping angels from the light of the sun

This congregation rains like cinders from the sky

The product of childhood nightmares, empty hope behind empty eyes

Open your ears, hear my sweet tragedy

Open your mouth, drink my sick blasphemy

Empty hope behind empty eyes

I’m crushing the hope of the saved

Haunted, dark, and driven insane

This is my unholy rapture

Oh lord, is this not your desire?

God damned this world

God damned my life

I didn’t choose hell

Hell chose me

Hell chose me

Hell chose me

Hell chose me
