"Harvest Pyre"

[Intro:]
Pyre!

I am the ruin of all, a squint can dim survey
I am the dearth of hopes' dystopic cowl dismay
Cast the baubles through rapine, my fortune ill-acquired
Upon the flames rent the night, deny the trinkets, vice desired

I squander riches, lay the bitches lust a jaded spray
Dream of nightmares, conjure monsters, sip decay
From breast of goddess milk, the darkness, blood, a dulling wine
I angle sideways, path a blind maze, defy the scythe of time

[Chorus:]
Tap the jugular
Bleed the vampire
Tar the slime, pit surf quagmire
Heal cadaver, harvest pyre (Raw wound!)
Pyre!

I trawled the aether, sweating reefer
Sole belief I'm beneath her
Glow decrease her in abyss deep
I unsheathe her like a reaper

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus:]
Tap the jugular
Bleed the vampire
Tar the slime, pit surf quagmire
Heal cadaver, harvest pyre (Raw wound!)
Pyre! (Raw wound!)

[Outro:]
Reap ripe raw wound
Reap ripe raw wound
