Possessed
Hocico Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
here into night silence, he calls my name
Come and see their pleasures, they never rest
all those damned beings will never be blessed
Celebrate the pain, going insane
celebrate the pain, calling my name
Be my disease, contaminate those bodies
be their misery and agony
Never forgive, never hear their claim
just hate them, they will burn the flame
Celebrate the pain, going insane
celebrate the pain, calling my name
Come here and take me beyond myself
my vitations and diseases belong to this place
I know how the silence sounds down there
where light blinds the damned creatures in disgrace
Get the veangence, get your own slave
torture every mind and soul
bitterness will be forever the only fate
bitterness will be forever a sweet fate
Celebrate the pain, going insane
celebrate the pain, calling my name
Come here and take me beyond myself
my vitations and diseases belong to this place
I know how the silence sounds down there
where light blinds the damned creatures in disgrace
