"Scarab" lyrics

"Scarab"

As the sun returns from the shades of night
So am I reborn from my own corruption
I invoke the consuming fire
And from the ashes mould
The renaissance of my decadent self

At the dawn of my rebirth
The heart is overflowing
I indulge and dissipate
And when the cup is empty
I drink from nothingness (Nothingness)
The venom by which I disintegrate

This is not merely pride or lust for eminence
This is the reoccurring cycle of my existence

As the sun returns from the shades of night
So am I reborn from my own corruption
My own corruption

Behold, the god returns
Solar balls upon his back
A sacrifice

I invoke the consuming fire
And from the ashes mould
The renaissance of my decadance

My sacrifice
My corruption
My death
