A retrospective gaze
Fixed on a mind terrified
Paralysis set in motion
Through theological torture
The inherent rebellion of youth
Repressed and lying dormant through
A childhood of conformity
(I had become) the indentured servant of god
Years in service to humanity's bane
The baptismal cattle brand
Searing flesh into holy scar tissue
Yet they merely strengthened
The heretic within
Self-discovery was my deadliest sin
Shuffling off their immortal coil
Awakening unrestrained desire
Through spiritual lycanthropy
Carnality eroding the wall of lies
And dissolving the force-fed guilt
Behold! The bestial man
Living beyond morality
Liberating christ's slaves
Embracing mortality
