My heart is violently choleric It yearns for disaster Pride has made a wretched fool of me I am consumed and bested by my sin I deserve death from the Son of Man My mind is a slave to self deception I am mocked by my own words Blind guides follow me off of this cliff Sorrow is my biggest fan My will is a den of thieves When it's all about me: This life is cold and dreary The bottle is always empty I am guilty in front of the Accuser I feel death at my doorstep So, I turn to let them inside...

The Bottle Is Always Empty
My heart is violently choleric It yearns for disaster Pride has made a wretched fool of me I am consumed and bested by my sin I deserve death from the Son of Man My mind is a slave to self deception I am mocked by my own words Blind guides follow me off of this cliff Sorrow is my biggest fan My will is a den of thieves When it's all about me: This life is cold and dreary The bottle is always empty I am guilty in front of the Accuser I feel death at my doorstep So, I turn to let them inside...
The Accuser relates to the Devil. 'The Satan' is not a name, but a title, which literally means, 'The Accuser.'
