Shades Below
What is it that lurks inside the common man?
Innate evil? Or part of a master plan
For one need not peer to deep inside the heart
To find a bit of blackness ready to tear apart
Your sanity will come with me
Far down below, into depths unknown
A seed of growing passion for the dark unnatural art
Genocide of the innocent, freedom, structure lost
Becoming sour with discontent as a stillness fills the air
The time has come for fulfillment, to feed on the souls of the damned
Growing fear, as I come near
I'm stalking you, the punisher of deeds untrue
The voice inside my head, it doesn't lie
Revealing only those who defy
Suffering in the shades below, the world in which you live
Discovering a race of terror is what lurks within
A dichotomy in principle but a righteous feat no less
Extinguish the murderers, those whose veins run cold
On the single minded quest to rid the earth of fear
At once become the focus of grief and emptiness
Deep mortal wounds, combust the tomb
A town is razed, completes the darkness of this day
Not long for this world, you who terrorize
A swift glimmer of steel, and the separation of flesh
Vengeance colossal, the ultimate test of faith
Left exposed in extremis, my deity seals your fate
Reject the will, defrock the feigned
A crown of thorns, which wreaks havoc on perverse exploits
