Lyrics for It Grieves My Heart
The world is falling So cold and grey Shallow and empty life lingers on It grieves my heart, it tears me apart I hear this constant disharmony "Now Now I ride with the mocking and friendly ghouls on the night-wind And play by day in the catacomb I know that light is not for me" Lost in a dead world With broken wings Human reality feeds upon a whore For what idols have these lowlifes bowed their heads To build up an empty world? Kill the bitch on the cross Scorn their sacred loss And the sheeps are making love to the madness of the flow Is this all they know? Madness of the flow Is this all they know? The madness of the flow will take the final blow As the sun goes down over mankind's tomb In the universal graveyard of filth and slime This is our time I'm lost in the sick world Beholding the corruption Curse them all Lead them astray It grieves my heart They won't go away "Now I ride with the mocking and friendly ghouls on the night-wind And play by day in the catacomb I know that light is not for me Save that rock But I know always that I am an outsider Stranger in this century Stranger among those who are still men"
