Baphomet
Across the sky
Soaring high on flight,
The creature's cries
Roar into the night.
With scaled wings
And a crown of thorns,
The Deity
Doesn't feel remorse.
Abundant strength,
And it eats pain, of course;
So with your head
Will be it's bed, adorned.
Baphomet, rapid death,
Rape and pillage the land;
Have their head, leave them dead,
Lead me with Satan's hand.
Bring your bows, bring your knives,
Bring your axe and your wit,
Bring your torch, and of course,
Don't leave your...

Just
Just wanted to let you know,
Just wanted to let you go;
Just wanted to make the most
Of just making one more toast;
To me letting go of me,
I've let you go already.
Just wanted to take it slow,
Just wanted to hear you go,
Just wanted to feel the most
Of just making one more toast;
To me letting go of me,
I've let you go already.
I used to think that you were me,
Two souls entwined eternally;
But now I see the end is near,
And I can see my ending fear.
Just wanted to take you home, ...
Just wanted to let you go;
Just wanted to make the most
Of just making one more toast;
To me letting go of me,
I've let you go already.

Two souls entwined eternally;
But now I see the end is near,
And I can see my ending fear.

Pendulum Of Following Crumbs
Your lust, my trust,
Buried by disgust.
I must entrust
All that we've discussed.
It hurts the worst
When asked "are you hers?"
And sure, there's worse,
But only in a hearse.
So once it starts-
The feeling in my heart-
I fall apart,
And then I grow dark.
You tire me,
In your entirety,
It's times like these,
I'd flee entirely-
I would, I should,
Run away for good,
But knock on wood,
'Cause I don't think I could.
I try, no lie,
It's just that I can't fly. ...

Plague of Justinian
I'll leave this earth void of worth,
A scorched oblivion,
I'll mark the dirt with your hurt,
It's all Darwinian.
No God will bend my knee,
nor will I ever be
Your polygynian,
You will atone to me,
The widespread of disease,
Plague of Justinian.
Blackened hands,
Swollen glands,
Necrosis on the rise.
Blood in lungs,
Cough it up,
Discharging your demise.
Pray to god, Pay with blood,
Every head-splitting "thud."
If you fail, don't you wail,
Close your eyes til it's done.

Thanks
Poe wrote of woe,
That reminded me so,
That there's more to the show
Than 'you reap what you sew'..
You didn't deserve this,
I love that you're nervous,
But this is my purpose,
It's time for your service..
In a moments notice
I'll control this,
And by my focus,
You're made atrocious.
Once so pretty,
Once so precious,
Now a pity,
I'm capricious.
Something tells me
You're on your way,
Elevating
To divine change.
For, you see, the way you plea,
It makes me...

Reptilian
I've been shedding layer,
After layer of my loose skin
Baby I can tell you're scared,
But I'll show you where I've been.
You've made a mockery
Of my two left feet,
Although this dance is sweet,
It's ending in disease.
Crawling on my spine,
Away from claimed-design,
I can't turn back time,
But I can make you mine.

Derek
I love you son, my little man,
My wanderer, with little plans.
You crawl, and sprawl,
And sometimes fall,
But always smile through it all.
You chase things that ring or shine,
And catch them most of the time!
Then once you do, you smile again,
And I tell you, it's true, my friend,
Your smile is so worth while to see,
Amazingly, it mirrors me!
Not only does it look like mine,
But they happen at the same time!
Almost like we share a mind,
Or soul, or genes, or just our eyes.
Whatever makes us what we are,
You're...

Run
I can stop this madness
Before it comes,
I can prevent sadness
If I just run.
I can save your heart
Before it's broken,
If I run far
Before mine is chosen.
I gotta run, run,
as fast as I can,
I can't look back,
I can't feel her hands.
I can spare you from
So much misery,
All that comes from
Falling in love with me.
In the end, you'll want
To let go of me,
And eventually
You'll get over me.
As long as I run, run,
As fast as I can,
Can't look back, ...

Insomniac
The demons,
Eyes as black as tar,
The screeching,
Meaning they aren't far,
The bleeding friends,
And broken hearts,
My dreams of peace
Were ripped apart.
I'll never sleep,
Never sleep,
I'm safer with
Insanity;
Lying awake
Until I scream,
Is better than
Exhausting dreams.
The portal to
This mortal hell,
Is something buried
In my shell,
And though I've hollowed
it so well,
I just can't break free
From this spell.

Life Sentence
You're looking like a man
With your hands on her neck,
I'll give you one last chance
To abandon your breath.
I'm coming for your mind,
And I'm planning your death,
No time for suicide,
It's a life sentence.
You've been condemned,
To pain, to feel my rage estranged,
In every range of ways,
I'll make your brain deranged.
The jury is all out
And their verdict is in,
The gavel's coming down,
Now to crumple your sin.
You're blindly searching eyes
For an ounce of their pity,
But there is none...
With your hands on her neck,
I'll give you one last chance
To abandon your breath.

Cherry-Picker
I fear my problem is picking a problem to make my own,
For I fear I have none, and it shows, they all know.
I fear there are simply too many problems at once,
And trying to find the solution's a stunt.
I fear there will soon be a calling for me,
A beckoning, reckoning, bellowing plea,
A harp in B Minor, with blood on the strings,
Singing me the most beautiful things;
But what could I do for someone so practiced?
I'd be mal-aligned, I'd cause such a racket,
Your beautiful song, is yours to play dear,
For I fear I will fall if I try to...
For I fear I have none, and it shows, they all know.

Sense
Logic can bring happiness,
Think about it, it makes sense.
Just try not to be so dense,
It's so easy, no offense.
Mathematics-acrobatics,
Cash analysts, all furious.
Data shows that money grows
When happiness is on hold.
Work more hours, pay more bills,
Juggle lives with every thrill,
Cash in hand, with hands to kill,
But was it all worth it still?
Missed detriment, missed sentiment,
Every happy thought, sediment,
Dedicated to the hatred,
Feeling jaded? Money made it.
If this sounds just...
