Lords of Pain
Embracing Dark Redemption
Lyrics
When they returned from the storm
Returning from a challenging experience or conflict
Turned by the bloodstains and dust
Marked by evidence of violence (bloodstains) and hardship (dust)
I stand alone in my altar
Standing alone in a sacred space or a place of worship
And blessed by the fathers of the dark
Received blessings from dark or supernatural entities
To give me my soul back again
Seeking the restoration of one's soul
Lords of pain
Referring to powerful entities associated with suffering
Hold my soul as I die
Requesting the Lords of Pain to hold the speaker's soul during their death
Lords of pain
Expressing the surrender of the speaker's blood to the Lords of Pain
Drink my blood
An offering of the speaker's blood to the Lords of Pain
Lords of pain
Seeking a sign or communication from the Lords of Pain
Give me a sign from you
Specifically asking for a sign from the Lords of Pain
Lords of pain
Continued plea for communication or guidance from the Lords of Pain
Let me die
Expressing a desire for death or an end to suffering
When I kneel before the pentagram
Kneeling before a pentagram, a symbol often associated with the occult
And call your name
Invoking or calling upon the Lords of Pain by name
I pray to my gods
Praying to personal gods for a return after death
To come back again
Expressing a desire for resurrection or rebirth
To kill me again
Anticipating a repeated cycle of death, perhaps as a form of release
