Once I dwelt in the light

I knew the taste of beasts

In halls, sitting side by side

With hypocrites and cheats

Once I stood with the light,

I fought for shining cause

Now I feast on enemies

In cold fortress halls

Hear my dinner pleading

They offer much

Soon only bleeding,

The skull is crushed

Cool-fires dry the supple flesh,

Blackening the meat

I prefer the taste of blood

Pulsing through my teeth

Save your tears for your gods,

I only hear my need

The rot upon my cursed soul

Demands that I feed

Once I dwelt in the light,

The warmth was my home

I think of all I used to love

As I chew the bones
