11th Hour

11th Hour

Lamb of God

As The Palaces Burn



The hour of reckoning draws near

Judgment day is here and gone

Sweetly she tucks me into her arms

A liquid embrace to chase the day away

Sedate numb, deaf and dumb

Stumbling into solitude

A clouded judgment day is fueled

Take me under your black wings

Mark my words and remember me

So sweetly she sucks away at my time

So sweetly she draws me nigh

Closer and closer towards never ending sleep

Spin the bottle

Kiss only the bottle

The dark mistress of many, beholden to none

Slips a ring of needles around your arm in an engagement

Eternal engagement

Never consummated

Never consummated

Take me under your black wings

Mark my words and remember me

Destroyer of senses

So take as needed for the pain

Another gray morning dawns across an ashen sky

My sweet demoness beckons me

Ever again and again and again and again

The dark mistress of many, beholden to none

My sweet demoness beckons me

Ever again and again and again and again and again

Take me under your black wings

Jacked up on the taste of self-destruction
