[Lyric] Thanos Complex: The Wrath of God (Savage Intellect (2))

Have you ever opened your eyes, awakened from a dream
Realizing life as you know it is not quite what it seems
You feel cold eyes upon you and dark clouds above you
So out of touch with reality only your family could love you
When that day came for me, I arose with suspicion
Maybe it’s false intuition or silly superstition
Nevertheless, I left my house, head clouded with doubt
More curious than concerned to what this day would bring about
Brought back to reality by an overhead cry, ‘WATCH OUT!’
It was as if something quicker than reflexes reacted
Preventing a large falling fragment of glass
From leaving my skull severed and fractured
I froze for a moment, then resumed walking, still looking back
Envisioning an alternate timeline where my lifeline was cut short
Body collapsed without my soul inside for support
Lost in thought, I stepped off the sidewalk
And was nearly halfway across the street
When the heard the tires screech
Smelled the burning rubber, eventually saw the semi
Mere inches from where I stood, the scared stiff survivor
The loud sounding of my heart pounding
Drowning at the yelling of the alarmed driver
Feeling a mixture of annoyed and paranoid
I know my theories on existence has some holes
Is death trying to fill that void
Naw..why should I try to apply logic to the situation
When more than likely it’s my own psyche’s creation
Based on the pre-existing reservations
Today may bring forth something hideous
So, I dismissed it as coincidence as I set foot upon the city bus
I picked a seat, but had a instinct to move
And, as I sat back and got relaxed, finally thought I might adjust
When suddenly I witnessed a car lose control
Spin and slam directly into the side of us
Hitting in the exact position
Where I was initial sitting with precision
And that’s when I finally took full notice
Of the contents of my peripheral vision
The same imagery I had vaguely saw
During all three near catastrophes
A dark hooded figure off in the distance with its back to me
(What is this?)
Patience exhausted, I lost it
Thoughts became irrational
Exiting the bus, screaming at the figure
“I have some questions I want to ask of you!!”
Slowly he turned til he was facing me
There was nothing but darkness in place where his face should be
He never spoke a word to me
But instantly it occurred to me
‘The grim reaper’s trying to murder me!’
And instinctively ran off with an immediate since of emergency
But, no matter how fast I ran or swiftly I maneuvered…
He couldn’t be alluded, and I knew it (I knew it)
But isn’t life worth trying for? Or should ignore my fears
And let death persevere, and use the hands of fate to dry my tears
No time to think, I feel the end is near
And, yeah, I’ve been here before
But never have I been quite so sure
Furthermore, he currently has me cornered in a closed off corridor
Nowhere to hide, no to place to run and here comes
But, the tears are done, no longer am I fearing ‘em
I’m ACCEPTING this, no matter what his method is
My execution shall be effortless
With his final step
He slips his hands from his robe and there’s a scythe
Clutched within his fist, and as his slowly bends his wrists
And lifts to deliver his dark gift
I sit motionless...EMOTIONLESS
And, then I notice this opening appear in mid-air from nowhere
And hear a scream that only he reacts to
\I’m froze stiff as a statue
And as I stare into the portal
I witness the exiting of a woman who appears to be mortal
A scene more surreal than words could ever describe
She looked directly into his eyes and began to cry
As she asked him why had he done this
She said, he had no right to among us
I assume ‘us’ meant humanity
He answered with, “Why are you mad at me?
When every man is deceased, only then are we finally free
God has forsaken us by making us the most feared
It’s not fair, it was just one mistake
How long does god’s forgiveness take?
I’ll no longer stand by and wait
Plus, the punishment was unjust, condemned to eternity of
Humanity trying to avoid us, and curse us
When we’re the first ones
So why shouldn’t I thrust my blade into their every chest
And let the flesh return to dust
And when it’s all said and done we can finally Rest In Peace
And be released from the consequence
Of just a brush of satan’s touch’
She listened silently but intently to his every word
And felt his pain cause it was too her own
She motioned for me to leave them to be alone
She began to hold him and told him
They must be strong and hold on to their faith
And, as I walked away, I tried to put it all in perspective
Could it be as I suspected?
He mentioned they were the first ones
When he spoke about humanity
Which left me truly amazed as I gazed back at ‘em
Because I sincerely believe
That I was in the presence of…you tell me
