(Intro - base) ​(Verse 1) In the frozen mud where the spring begins to bleed, I sprout my gills to feed upon your seed! Drinking the meltwater from the poisoned ground, While you bloom your flowers, I swallow every sound! My cold dead heart beats only with your stolen breath, A parasite of life, dancing close to death! ​(Chorus) Four seasons turning, burning in the fire! Feeding on your sorrow, feeding on your desire! Walking through the shadow with a heart of stone, I wear your stolen soul, I walk this earth alone! So beautiful, so cruel, the beast inside will wake, Take everything you have, break everything you break! ​(Verse 2) Summer sun is blazing, tearing through the shade, A transparent skin of cicadas where the monsters made! The blood-soaked hunger echoes in the searing heat, I chew your canopy down right to my feet! Rotten fruit is dripping with a crimson stain, I wash my hands clean in your helpless pain! ​(Guitar Solo - Fast, aggressive, shredding dual-guitar harmonies) ​(Bridge) Autumn winds are howling through the open door, I count my naked ribs and I cry for more! Tears of pure diamond born from your bitter scream, The most elegant poison in this waking dream! ​(Chorus) Four seasons turning, burning in the fire! Feeding on your sorrow, feeding on your desire! Walking through the shadow with a heart of stone, I wear your stolen soul, I walk this earth alone! So beautiful, so cruel, the beast inside will wake, Take everything you have, break everything you break! ​(Outro) Cast off the skin! Break the wheel of time! In the monochrome cycle, your pain is mine! No more screams in the empty air... Look at the mirror— The red ego rises again! ​(Outro Solo - Thundering drums and a final, screaming guitar feedback fade out)
