[Intro: Matthew Dommer]
One sacrifice for another
Or were we made to suffer and work our hands to bone?
The vultures will circle my thoughts above
Inferno

[Verse 1: Andrew Wells]
Gate keeper, have I paid my penance and sacrificed enough for you to help me ascend?
Or will you seal my fate in your father’s blood?
Break the seal

[Verse 2: Andrew Wells]
Blasphemy
Codex Gigas, lead me to my venerable devices
Alchemy
Wormhole through a time once witless and unrefined
To labor endlessly in the holy womb
Birth after rebirth

[Verse 3: Andrew Wells]
Doubt is failure's most clever disguise but I'm no stranger to deceit
When the substrate is disgraced, then our time has come to exalt the maker

[Outro: Matthew Dommer]
I'm starting to believe the path is flawed, a paradigm
I'm starting to believe we're on our own
