Lost in the shadows I found a passage marked by light
The fire from a star newly died
And it led me through quicker to a land draped in white
A world free of delusion and blight
I was lavished with promises of peace
By messengers of God
The nectar fraught
What I knew to be self
By his hand pain and hate succumbed
And in childlike submission
Mesmerised by the chanting
I boke bread with the one
The messiah
The unwavering
Divinity
With the stench of wisdom
And with hеavens blessing
He claimеd possession of the weak
Who had nowhere left to run
Withered our hopes began to fade
I found a way below
To a reptilian cave
And upon the altar lay the sacred scroll
Outlining the fee
Yet no word of our fate
Beyond the final release
And cowering in the darkest corner
I marked a figure
Blackened from beatings and dried blood
Beginning the sufferance anew
She relayed the horror of his reckoning
The crushing of bone and the debauchery of soul
Lay in wait for those who bow to that throne
From cruelty and sufferance you have sought to hide
But beneath this
A shallow semblance of life
So struggle with your will and fight with your might
Be the one who swam against the tide
Not engulfed by his fancy
A castle build on lies
Where hopes and dreams
Go forever
To die
The fire from a star newly died
And it led me through quicker to a land draped in white
A world free of delusion and blight
I was lavished with promises of peace
By messengers of God
The nectar fraught
What I knew to be self
By his hand pain and hate succumbed
And in childlike submission
Mesmerised by the chanting
I boke bread with the one
The messiah
The unwavering
Divinity
With the stench of wisdom
And with hеavens blessing
He claimеd possession of the weak
Who had nowhere left to run
Withered our hopes began to fade
I found a way below
To a reptilian cave
And upon the altar lay the sacred scroll
Outlining the fee
Yet no word of our fate
Beyond the final release
And cowering in the darkest corner

The crushing of bone and the debauchery of soul
Lay in wait for those who bow to that throne

Be the one who swam against the tide
Not engulfed by his fancy
A castle build on lies
Where hopes and dreams
Go forever
To die
