The Death of Hope

I am the abyss from which all monsters reign
The lonely song that lost sirens mournfully lament
Born of constant absence deep within
The tears of a thousand angels are my only friends

I will desecrate
Annihilate
The last ounce of hope

I am the crimson trails running down your arms
The plague bearer in woven tears and the locust swarm
Born of treachery, shame in my veins
The blood of a martyred fraud diluted and so lame

I will demonstrate
Incriminate
The first lack of hope

We are the lie, the scorn that vies
The shadow in faith
The tears that are cried
And the tie that binds
The hate and rape

I am the legion of lost souls of this age
The media deity representing fears and rage
Born of last rites muttered at death beds
The whispered secrets shared, the hateful words that are said

I will procreate
Assassinate
The next death of hope

We are the lie, the scorn that vies
The shadow of faith
The tears that are cried
And the tie that binds
The rape and the hate

We are the lie, virus that vies
Once human now wraiths
The tears that are cried
And the tie that binds
The hate and the fate

The rape of something once pure
