Eyes Of The Ouroboros

Lost prophet; upon divination I see the third eye The eye that consumes The eye that repeats The eye that refuses the line The Oracle of ouroboros The repeat of fatal flaws The life not worth living Alas my meeting grows near I know what happens This life I have lived time and time again I fail to change the path I grow; I sow I weep upon my failure As I look into your eyes, I saw my future go up in flames Again I see my life ending The ouroboros spins in their eye The false prophet repeats The tormentor rejoices The never-ending game of cat and mouse; My life repeats; I am consumed in flames The snake wraps around my throat My eyes go pale; my skin blackens The blue flame consumes; while I get consumed My future scorched; my demons repeat My sins were not forgiven As I gnash my teeth; he slashed my feet As I wailed; and I grew pale My soul weeped; as I seep  The undying flame grew clear My screams anew; my father in the waiting room Life repeats; as I screech My game begins again To hide from the ouroboros again
