Verse 1 (with riff C2):
Darkness calls down to me
Sweat pours from my body like rain
Growing wiser with each touch
A pawn in lucifers game, am I?

Play riff B 4x
play riff C + C2
Verse 2 (with riff C2):
It attacks me in the black abyss
The entity formless yet full of rage
The mark on the beast my body
Scarring me for eternal life

Chorus (with riff B 4x):
I brought this all upon myself
Sold my soul to change my life
It’s up to me and no one else
The beast in me can’t control my life

And so it’s begun, the end of me
The seed was sewn now it’s growing inside
My fate in control, not mine
