Wrath Lyrics

[Intro]
Behold displacement, cremation
Rising from devastation
From embers of creation unto death
All shall return

[Verse 1]
Stoking fires and guiding flames
Burn like candles from both ends
Choke on ashes and be cleansed
All you are is all you've ever been
Bathe in baptismal fire
Coat the world in my disease
Remorseless, drenched in ire
I'll flood the world in kerosene

[Pre-Chorus]
There's no sin
Now I am one within mе
There's no pain
It ends thе same

[Chorus]
I've fallen like the cursed angel
Beginnings ignite the sky
Fall now like ash before me
Devoured by the sea
Fill the hole in my chest I have manifested
Behold the new king
[Post-Chorus]
Again and again I will pretend I can feel the flame
Again and again I will attempt to hide this pain

[Bridge]
Guide the flames into the jaws of the beast
We are not one and the same

[Verse 2]
Atop the crimson pyre
Smoldering and ashen wings
Flay me of my desire
I feel nothing

[Pre-Chorus]
There's no sin
Now I am one within me
There's no pain
It ends the same

[Chorus]
I've fallen like the cursed angel
Beginnings ignite the sky
Fall now like ash before me
Devoured by the sea
Fill the hole in my chest I have manifested
Behold the new king
[Post-Chorus]
Again and again I will pretend I can feel the flame
Again and again I will attempt to hide

[Refrain]
Behold displacement, cremation
Rising from devastation
From embers of creation unto death

[Outro]
All shall return to ash
Collapsing the stars
Watching the earth collide unsated
Drown in the fires of my intent
I'm smoldering
Drowning in shame
I am falling down
I am falling down into the flame
Into the flame
It's all I know, heavy lies the crown of the king

What did Lorna Shore say about "Wrath"?
Genius Answer

Will Ramos:

When we were putting the album together, this one got moved around. ‘Wrath’ was supposed to be before ‘Apotheosis’ in the story, but the songs flowed better sonically this way. The song is about being pissed and wanting to destroy everything. He’s basically at the point where he wants to see the world he’s created go down in flames. But, like I said, this was supposed to be before he finds any glimpse of hope. So, the story is a little jumbled here.
