Eamque Me Lamia
The mist of death
Awaken, bereft
A god upon the slaughter
The sea of burning water
Entombed in sand
By beasts of man
There’s laughter in the darkness
Eager to embrace the madness
The suffering
Of fallen kings
Lucifer in the roses
Locked out when the door closes
Crooked crosses
No one’s losses
The thorns, they drip with venom
They are calling forth all demons
“Rise, the darkness
Eternal sadness
Lilith beckons me
With webs of
Pleasure and madness
Rise, the murder
Of crows and martyrs
Lilith beckons me
With webs of
Tortures that I adore”
The lightning strikes
Across the skies
Shaking when the Earth rumbles
But still Cthulhu slumbers
Falling angels
Become fables
Once they seemed to be heroes
But now they are total zeros
“Rise, the darkness
Eternal sadness
Lilith beckons me
With webs of
Pleasure and madness
Rise, the murder
Of crows and martyrs
Lilith beckons me
With webs of
Tortures that I adore”
Harbingers gather in stormy weather
Casting phantasms into the night
Dragging the chains of tragedy and pain
The lightning flashes a blinding light
Madness ensues, gods blowing a fuse
Innocents led to where dead things bite
Circles of spells giving wonders of Hell
Thunder rumbles, the raven takes flight
“Surgant, et tenebrae
Sadnes aeternam
Eamque me Lamia
Cum telas
Delectatio autem et dementia
Surgant, caedem
Corui et martyres
Eamque me Lamia
Cum telas
Qui cruciat adoro”
The bloody water of endless slaughter
Divine temper tantrums when storms blow
The howling moon foretelling of the doom
She’s beautiful in her haunting glow
Kali’s embrace of poison and lace
Grounds shake and the lava rivers flow
Apocalyptic when divas throw fits
Lucifer’s laughing, watching the show
“Rise, the darkness
Eternal sadness
Lilith beckons me
With webs of
Pleasure and madness
Rise, the murder
Of crows and martyrs
Lilith beckons me
With webs of
Tortures that I adore”
See the madness in those eyes
Screaming, right before you die
“Surgant, et tenebrae
Sadnes aeternam
Eamque me Lamia
Cum telas
Delectatio autem et dementia
Surgant, caedem
Corui et martyres
Eamque me Lamia
Cum telas
Qui cruciat adoro”
...rise
...eternal sadness
...Lilith beckons
.....with webs of pleasure and madness

Wow! From looking at your early work I'd say the greatest leap is in your use of language - it's much more layered and textured and much more evocative
