Sick Perfection Songtext
von Arsis

A sickening servant held within the mirror′s gaze
Without lust to offer, without will to save
Now the scene's reflection glares back with those lying eyes
And recite the lies to prompt this corpse to life

And I must deny myself all life′s pleasures
For in the denial, I will have strict perfection

Now I beg to serve the night
In the blazing curse of the dawn
To shatter the mirror
And see what lies beyond
Beyond the mirror

With frozen fear and guilt to feed the sightless wisdom
That I held near, as close as any fucking coffin

And I must deny myself all life's pleasures
For in the denial, I will have strict perfection


Now I beg to serve the night
In the blazing curse of the dawn
To shatter the mirror
And see what lies beyond
Beyond the mirror

A reflection of deceit
A twisted vision of deceit
With one last breath to tell the tale
Of failure's conquest and shattered spells
Embrace the knowledge, embrace the sickness
Elegant, yet perverse
I′m in the clutches of vanity′s curse

Now I beg to serve the night
In the blazing curse of the dawn
To shatter the mirror
For we know it lies
Now I beg to serve the night
In the blazing curse of the dawn
To shatter the mirror
And see what lies beyond
Beyond the mirror
