Perpetual Black Second (Live in Tokyo) Lyrics

Trapped in a ceaseless fever of spite,
an unending fit of resentment and anger
Caught in a moment of unforgiveness
In the snapshot of a hatefilled secondThe speedless flickering of uncomprehending eyes
-Dialated in disbelief
Your vacant gaze distorted
Twisted in its accusing glareTeeth glimmering in emotional rage
Spit of hate suspended mid-air
Bodies strained in fury
Devoured by jaws of despairOne single image frame I wish to forget
now replayed in succession of millions
The one second I will always regret
-My hell found in its reiterationHeld within the visualization,
the continuous rerun of my own violence
A fraction of time perpetuated
By my regretful soul animatedPlease forgive the evil in me
-The darkness within
Ferocious, inherent demon

Adrenaline gland residentThreatened subconscious snake
Repressed into striking coil
Surfacing that black second
Ascending with the boil
