Iced Earth
Creator Failure
[Verse 1]
A lonely maiden stands
Bound to the obelisk
As she tugs and pulls
And tries to twist
Shackles slice her virgin wrists
Blood now covers her tiny hands
[Pre-Chorus]
How does thou receive this fate?
She asks of her own mind
Purity, innocence, encourage death
Life... gone is mine
[Verse 2]
I also ask of you my lord
Thy God in heaven
For I understand the error of man's ways
But of creation and the seven days
When was created the murky haze
From which the beast has risen
[Chorus 1]
Fail me not my master
For this is your creation
Your son the bastard
Leviathan
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Blackness, dripping stench
Unrelenting vice
Vile embellishment
Transcending pure evil
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Standing now before her eyes
Wings expanding... she's going to die
Belching blue green fire
Flesh feeds the desire
The serpent gods apocalyptic smile
[Chorus 2]
Come to me my demon brother
Of us both and our fathers
A failure of creation... abomination
[Instrumental Outro]
