Only Dust Remains


"What horrible will could keep such a creature as this alive?" - Professor Broom, Hellboy



Staring through abysmal eyes
Swaying to the sounds of wailing cries
Glory is bound on altars of sin
On the broken word of Jinn

Bound to fall forevermore
Leaving behind dying angel whores
To the ironclad will of God's stain
Break from Heaven 'til dust remains

So let the thorns grow
In the skies below
Be the signs
The coming of the death throes

Brethren of wretched
Follow the Defiler
On wings of hatred
Only dust remains

False idols, they burn brightly
In eyes so pure, they burn unsightly
A God of man was forged by mere words
While heathens died by the sword

True evil lies in pure hearts
Dream of new ways to tear you apart
In name of God, holy and pure
They force on children, the cure

So let the horns sound
All across the town
Show the signs
The pounding on the death grounds

Brethren of wretched
Follow the Defiler
On wings of hatred
Only dust remains

The streets run
Thick with blood
Innocents twitch
In stinking mud
In God's name
Children were
Set to flame
But I survived
Broken and scarred
Revenge
Will be mine

Baptized in cleansing fire
Blessed by lips from the highest spires
For the utterance of those few lines
"I suffer no God,
My soul is mine"

Brand me with your holy cross
You have not realized you have lost
Another soul parts with blood drenched lies
You cannot take it
My soul is mine
