The second part. Please, check out the previous track "It Blooms at Night"

lyrics

Don't share my predicament, walk in my steps.
Don't carry my burden, I could not care less.
While you stumble behind, while you reach out your hand,
I will always abandon, I will always betray.

And don't claim understanding of which never was yours.
Your compassion rejected, empathy makes it worse.
I know, it will destroy you, it is my tour de force.
I will always remember how I always depraved you,
My love.

And the day will arrive, you will shine in your grace.
You could not see it coming, since you can't dwell on past.
I will carry the burden, I will stand here last.
I have pledged my allegiance, I have carried your flags.

And in your final moments, savour them to a grain.
This is no mercy killing, I won't spare you the pain.
I don't need your forgiveness, either way -it's the same.
I will always betray you, I will always betray you,
My love.

You must understand, all we did was pretend.
Everything ends before it begins,
You're reading the summary of your sins.
This is enough
This is enough!
Is this enough for you?
It never is.

And it withers with dawn
As for my heart? My heart is stone.
I lived in the moment, the moment is gone
Every time you looked away.

Venom's coursing through the veins,
Deliverance's calling, I'll take my pain
Into deepest hollow, in sacrilege's name.
I'll drag you down with me.

And it's gaping at your feet,
Abyss to you, salvation to me.
A pound of flesh, or advice for free-
It's too late to change your fate.

A deer in the headlights, a moth to a flame.
Your body is trivial, your soul has been claimed.
It withers with sunrise.
The hope that you'll never attain.
Just hope your life wasn't in vain.
