[Intro — Distant Church Bells | Detuned Pipe Organ | Whispering Female Choir | Slow Distorted Guitar Swells | Thunder] [Whispered — Low Female Contralto | Layered Demonic Female Whispers | Panned Left and Right] There's something underneath... Something wearing me... And it was never human. [Verse 1 — Dark Female Contralto | Smoky, Haunting Delivery | Brooding Bassline | Sparse Tribal Drums] The walls are breathing in the dark, Blackened hands have left their mark. Something whispers through my teeth, A thousand souls howl underneath. The mirror moves when I stand still, Another mind controls my will. I hear it laughing in my head, A voice that crawled out from the dead. [Pre-Chorus — Rising Strings | Female Vocal Harmonies | Heartbeat Kick | Distorted Feminine Whispers] No holy water, no sacred flame, Can drive away what knows my name. The shadows gather, candles die, Something ancient opens its eyes. [Chorus — Powerful Female Mezzo-Soprano | Explosive Gothic Guitars | Female Cathedral Choir | Thunderous Drums] The devil wears my skin tonight! Dances where there is no light! Blackened wings across the floor, Something wicked wants much more! No redemption! No release! No salvation! Never peace! Let the heavens turn away, For hell has found a place to stay! [Verse 2 — Sultry Female Contralto | Pulsing Bass | Ethereal Female Whispers | Creeping Guitar] The crucifix begins to weep, While nameless horrors haunt my sleep. A thousand fingers scratch the stone, And whisper, "You are not alone." My shadow bows before the throne, Of something born before the known. Its laughter rolls beneath the ground, And drags the screaming darkness down. [Bridge — Instruments Cut | Dissonant Piano | Deep Feminine Demonic Spoken Vocals | Breathy Reverb] No bargain made... No soul to sell... I never opened any door. It simply came... And made me hell. [Breakdown — Harsh Female Screams | Crushing Half-Time Drums | Downtuned Guitar | Female Choir] LET THE BELLS FALL SILENT! LET THE ALTARS BREAK! THERE IS NO AWAKENING! NOTHING LEFT TO TAKE! [Final Chorus — Powerful Female Belt | Full Gothic Orchestra | Layered Female Growls | Soaring Female Soprano Choir] The devil wears my skin tonight! Swallows every trace of light! No redemption! No release! No salvation! Never peace! Let the heavens turn away! Let the angels rot and pray! For every shadow, every sin... The darkness has always lived within! [Outro — Organ Decays | Bells Ring Backward | Intimate Female Whisper | No Male Vocals] I am not possessed... I am what possessed me.
