Let Me Bathe in Demonic Light Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Down at the end of a bombed-out street
The shell of a house where my friends and me used to meet
Someday the old flesh will give way to the new
Find a functioning mirror inside and slip right through

[Chorus]
And there, there I will be
And who, who's coming with me?
To show me my one true face
When I arrive at my preordained place

[Verse 2]
Chain of command maybe 10 years long
I emerge in Manhattan, still young and strong
Someday the hellhound will pick up the scent on the trail
Zero in on my penthouse and then pierce the veil

[Chorus]
And there, there I will be
And who, who's coming with me?
To show me my one true face
When I arrive at my preordained place

[Bridge]
Hopeless but free
Lit up like a marquee shining over the freeway
Where will my long trail end?
Here, here with my new friend

[Verse 3]
Fruits of the spirit heavy on the vine
Undying hunger deep in the bloodline
Dodge the hook like a steel head
Swim right through the night
Break the surface and rise like a geyser
When my time is right

[Chorus]
And there, there I'll be
And who, who among you, who's coming with me?
To show me my one true face
When I arrive at my preordained place

[Outro]
When I arrive, yeah
When I arrive
When I arrive
