The Blood Beneath My Nails Songtext
von I, Valiance

Why do I love the void? What have I become?

I am not the same, I am different in ways, completely insane
Hell is but a place, I′ll find it some day, the devil awaits

Worthless being, I've walked the earth in disgusting ways
Suffering, spewing forth from my agony

The man who has no face, follows me through eternity
No vision, no exits, just a tunnel of blackness and my ambition
Picture this, bodies molded into the walls
Reaching out to you because they know you′ve got a soul
Chambers so decrepit and vague, fomented flesh and decay
An overwhelming sense of shame
Followed by the screams of the suffering
But it all doesn't really make sense
When I'm standing by the reaper′s grave
Another omen I didn′t foresee, another sign that I'm his slave

Endless corridors within my mind create a maze
Try to escape before you suffocate
Worthless being, I′ve walked the earth in disgusting ways
Suffering, spewing forth from my agony


Designed this place within my
Withered mind, another way to dissect time
A place born from the darkness that I hide
The place I live when I close my eyes

Why am I corrupt? Why the fuck did I live a life so undone
Does it run in my blood? Was it predisposed before my life begun?
My whole life I had a pocket full of bad ideas
A bad attitude in a never ending state of fear
Questionable ideals and decisions I wish disappeared
Regrets and shame formulate inside a single tear

Through these acts the devil saw potential
Mold me into another fallen angel
Curse the earth for the ground it hates you
Turn your back on a world so hateful
Ripped my heart out
Drank the blood down, hoping that I'd drown, but I bled out
Never thought you had to claw your way into hell
Suppose it makes sense when our worlds are parallel

I′ve let the darkness devour me, and I sat there willingly
I felt its teeth disembowel me and slowly remove my humanity

I am the heartless son, a reject of humanity
My soul is in the furnace where it always belonged


My soul is in the furnace, where it always belonged
What, what
Where it always belonged
I am unborn, please forget me
