Lower - Immolation

Lower and lower, my soul sinking lower

Living for indulgence, the trinity of man

Me, myself, and I

Higher and higher, my greed takes me higher

All those below me I’ve cast aside

Clawing at their flesh to reach the heavens above

Deeper and deeper, my mind sinking deeper

When is too much enough to throw it all away

Stab my allies in the back just to seize the day

Lesser and lesser, my life feeling lesser

Loathing what I am, the lowest form of life

The blood on my hands will never wash away

Mad with guilt, spiraling out of control

Cold with hate for myself and what I’ve become

All that’s held me together is broken but will I fall

My twisted ambitions still calling, the voices I can’t ignore

Not even God can save me now

That flame burned out long ago

All my ways of sin and greed

Are the only passions I know

Darker and darker

My soul gets even darker

Moving ever closer to the depths from which I can never return
