Shrine of the Obscene Songtext
von The Odious Construct

Taste the suffering
Atmospherical density
That penetrates safeguards from inhumanity
Violate, retaliate with hate, pain
And the crippling fear that′s burning out the only light there is

This is the essence of selfishness
That you are worshipping
Tap the vein, repress your pain
And bow your fucking heads
To the shrine of the obscene

Raped and dragged below the threshold for survival
Forcing the will to submit
Paradoxical enlightenment from enslavement
Dehumanize


Pivotal shift in mankind's
Relation to anguish becomes
Bloodlust, a mindfuck
So putrid and arousing.

Abysmal depths intoxicating

Blistering evisceration
Fantasies of degradation
Awakens the sadist within all

The archetype of misery becomes our god

This is the essence of selfishness
That you are worshipping
Tap the vein, repress your pain
And bow your fucking heads
To the shrine of the obscene

No light, no end
Only darkness

Suffer
Breed your pain

I am the essence of selfishness
Tap the vein, escape your pain
And bow your fucking heads
