Father! Where have you gone? We need your eyes in times of filth Instill the shame, provide the blame Invoke the guilt Because the flesh takes on a life of its own I know that I can’t be left alone So be my hands, and be me eyes, and be my soul Hands fed to the churning gears of industry Devotion shifted, subverted Legions frothing at the mouth A populace now enslaved by the temporal Compassion cannot be bought Salvation cannot be achieved without suffering Absolution cannot be sold His message must be heard Christ thrown on the assembly line Mass production His message must be heard At the behest of His word Hypocrite! Whited Sepulcher! Liar! The blood on your hands is washed away by your divine lie Ravenous! Run through your lines to appease your huddled masses Ravenous wolf! Miscreant vermin! I know that you never had a soul From this point on, to watch you die will be my goal Counting the earnings stolen from the weak and broken The dissonance of manufactured faith left unspoken The struggle for utopian morality spawned dystopia Ravenous wolf! Pharisee!

mpenetrable void covered with lies Chaotic burning inside It will rise Trauma sustained grows into contagion Perniciously, it’s invading Pale sheath veiling the cavernous eruption Lacerate, expose this farce Facade For all to see Feel the need to spread the seed Infiltrate infection Crawling in black corridors lurks the reaper of dignity Entering the sewer with innocent curiosity But leaving with the seeds of corruption implanted Blooming into an exquisite shield The leather around the neck and the bolts built firmly into the skull Ripped and stomped apart So far beyond redemption, I can’t be saved With vehemence I contaminate and realize fulfillment Lured into a foul apparatus Injected was a code for the crux Soon the need will fill you, to break apart the delicate structures Watch the circuitry dissolve into a viscous puddle Exposing the tender meat contained inside This blood tastes right Displaced retribution Pray for my exemption Immortalize this sickness Share with you malignancy How can I shed before it spreads? How can I triumph over my own tendencies? To cut through the darkness and reach into the light So it feeds, slowly Imploding, deeply Lacerating So it seems it has me kneeling To spread pestilence of the seedling Wretched seedling Invading every breath I’m breathing To birth repellant pudenda Struggling to fight the onslaught But sinking into my pit of pathology Wretched seedling Invading every breath I’m breathing So it seems it has me kneeling Searching for somewhere I can point my finger No, it’s no one’s fault but my own Nothing can be done to stop the malevolent cycle Our fate is sealed While I fade it will gestate metastatic growth will draw breath As I melt, it rears its head If it lives I will be dead

Humiliation sold by the pound To shrewd narcotic kingpins and dealers of promised happiness All brought to you by the architects Of cathode ray reality as they properly fatten our delusions Until they develop mouths of their own Feed me. Inject the propaganda Reduce their suffering through the somniferous radiation Conceive another thoughtless carbon Attenuation of empathy Through force fed apprehension and principle Manipulation of pulpous clay Perspective and reason will perish and decay Emissions of conformity Subliminal slavery Contempt! Lying in disgrace is the mind that does not seek truth Remove the blinders, unveil your eyes Shed the skin anew Ignorance is strength. Power in numbers Plug into the network that destroys all subversive thought Insubordination Step in line Conditioning instruments control your mind Taxidermy, lifeless eyes Disembodied, the blood’s runs dry Painted facade Hate and greed dressed in disguise Cause and effect Stuff those holes with mesmeric diversion Narcosis How those ornaments dance and shine Mystified by the serpentine There are shocking new developments that you can’t afford to miss Nursing that fear into obedience Oligarchy! The power that slipped through the hands of the comatose masses Into the few Silenced! Silenced is the voice of the ones who can’t see through lies Sacrifice my privacy because I need to feel safe Okay then, you just wait ‘Till the lens is turned on you Treated like a criminal They watch everything you do You’re sufficiently subdued Subdued…criminal The only way to rule is through force and intimidation Through your weakness they stand to gain Leaving a trail of poverty without blame There are shocking new developments that you can’t afford to miss Holding onto our willful ignorance

Revelations 06:12
Choke. End of an era. New age of desperation This fool, this victim of his own device Let open the gates of all the teeming demons yearning to be free Show me the place without greed and deceit and Ill show you A fantasy Can you feel our impermanence looming? In the clock of infinity we are so inconsequential A veritable breath. A passing glance, a blip The blink of an eye Your status and your precious things Your money and security Mean nothing when the walls are crumbling The earth will shake, the waves will break And in mounds well be rotting In the eyes of the nebulous we are so reprehensible Lets flush it away Consume it all until we eat ourselves Suffer! Its my only restitution. To watch the masses scramble To watch the process begin Depopulate. Reduction. A cleansing of the cancer Detoxification. Lets flush it away Choke Choking on the excess of your senseless human greed The broken backs you're burdening To maintain all your precious things Its unending slavery And I'll be happy to watch it all rot away Show me a place that is truly divine and Ill show you a place Without mankind Can you feel our impermanence looming?
