|
As water rushes, as sewer grates over-faced |
|
All bloated corpse, all ever-was |
|
As love becomes hated, as light shades to grey |
|
Swelled to envelop all ever-nothing |
|
All stagnation becomes all too apparent |
|
As horizon forced below |
|
While smiling frown, while laughing weep |
|
As mould grows thickly, silently all around |
|
As scream becomes whimper, under weight of shroud befouled |
|
All clamour now silence, nature leagues below |
|
Let's see you fight with lungs full of stone! |
|
Hope all forgotten, beauty as beast |
|
All breath to fire |
|
All sustenance to filth |
|
All flesh to rot |
|
All temples to rubble |
|
All toil turns to trouble |
|
All to nothing |
|
All Horror! |
|
All Horror! |
|
Faceless, mindless, souls sold all the way out |
|
Heartless, hopeless, ensnared in useless sorrows |
|
What's the use of all light shining with idiot eyes screwed tight shut? |
|
Profane it all, just tell me, what's the use? |
|
If you're going to use those stupid hands to build an ugly pyre |
|
And truss me up there by mob-hoofed force |
|
I'll be wanting more than just a penny |
|
More than just a miserable ****ing penny |
|
A miserable pox-ridden penny for the guy |
|
I could hurl a thousand curses |
|
And not one could gift you fair judgement |
|
So crack out those ten-a-penny lighters |
|
And spark up your miserable flames |
