Demagoguery
The hissing in the garden
Wishing God's defeat
Stalking the parameters of waiting prey
We come like the break of day
A litany of death about to play
Its fatal hand here
Clawed to the hilt, sordid, best beware
Our swords will fill the air
With a morbid poetry born of despair
Under our rule
Black trees scratch red the fleeing sunset
Mist clings tight to Elysian fields
Now we hatch plans ripe for upset
Enflame belfries, time to be revealed
Diabology
No apology for a world upon her broken knees
Diabology
Spreading the disease
Demons freed to spree and torture by decree
Of our demagoguery
Nightmare-fueled, bejeweled in scars
Beneath the frozen stars
Children of the dark, of the craft we are
Deliciously grotesque
Severe puzzle boxes bursting to be solved
Not by any church absolved
Firebrands thirsting to be involved
In their ascent
Thick thorns adorn a twisted halo
For the fools and cruelly vain
As cathedrals soar, our sisters lay low
For the war-cry to roar back again
Diabology
No apology for a world upon her broken knees
Diabology
Spreading the disease
Demons freed to spree and torture by decree
Of our demagoguery
What started as a whisper
In the shadows of the night
Has sharpened to a painful blister
On the weathered heel of life
And now our voices like a knife
Carve out our vicious plan
And set our hooks in the hearts of man
The moon writhes in her orbit
And doused in blood she stirs
The tides to rise and deep inside
Her womb her daughters purr
Tonight the skies are spiteful
The gates are wearing thin
And through accruing torments shod
Our hated reign begins again
Poisonous these words of power
Uttered back
Engage the fatal mechanism
And with that
This virus
Inside us
Desires to be free
Devotees whipped into a frenzy
Of intoxication in celebration of sin
Enchantment answers and dancers envy
Puppet masters faster pulling the strings
Diabology
No apology for a world upon her broken knees
Diabology
Spreading the disease
Demons freed to spree and torture by decree
Of our demagoguery
