Lyrics

Grant me a wish, my master
Take heed of me
I have been loyal servant
Heartfelt, humble

Gave up - what belongs to me
Gave up my greed
My self-examination
Made me see, to be me

I am now like judas, done
Ashamed of what I've become
Fear for life I wear as a ring
To bask in your favour, I will kill the king

You say I am invincible
I cannot die
I know, but anyway
The words, they maim me

Grant me a wish, my master
Compassion, please
I'd like be a human
...Maybe one day

I am now like judas, done
Ashamed of what I've become
Fear of life I wear as a ring
To bask in your favour, I will kill the king

Entreaty: let me go
Master, I hate you so
How can I sleep my nights
When my whole being cries

I tried to be like everyone
Open my soul
But what I had to give
Resulted loathing

Enchanted by the power
Licked by the grace
One beautiful black flower
The end of the human race

I will
With pride now face my faith
King and queen now lie in state
Fear for life I wear as a ring
I bask in your favour, I have killed the king

Entreaty: let me go
Master, I hate you so
How can I sleep my nights
When my whole being cries

I had a nightmare
The wolf eating the raven

Entrails of life on my plate
And I ate them.

Interested in what I see
Try that rorschach test on me
Have you seen the beauty of the
Enticing beast

Entreaty: let me go
Master, I hate you so
I cannot sleep my nights
When my whole being cries

Entreaty: let me go
Master, I hate you so
I cannot sleep my nights
When my whole being cries
