The Crimson Parable

"It is not hands that call us. It is desire."

The lamenting puzzle befuddles the mind
Divine speeches and scribes and mine
Own blood speaks of nightmare unbound
When pleasure meets pain the creed
Of the damned bend reality

I am the enemy of creation
I know my station and it’s
The contender of the throne

The songs that sung about me
Are the way you see your death
The last breath when gods are hung

Now stand in line to kiss the laughing skull
The horns of the bull that gores
Masses of the mindless horde

What’s in store when the devil does come?
Virgins wanting some release
Won’t you, please, indulge her in sin?

Spend my time in lucid dreaming
Nightmares beget, the walls of screaming
When madness consumes the heart
How can you kneel when your god is bleeding?

I am the defiler of everything
Kneel to bare the chain, renew
The rightful heir to the throne

What’s wrong when the kingdom’s on it’s knees?
Corpses swing in trees, so sad
And too bad, dead for your greed

Thirteen black candles in the pentagram
The flames of the damned flicker
The details of the pools of gore

She moans “more” at the devil’s member
When she dismembers fetal
Remains cull vile demonic seed

Too much time in lucid dreaming
Nightmares begin, the beasts are feeding
When darkness consumes the mind
How can you kneel when your god is weeping?

Trumpets announced her
Coming with the storm
Angels falling for
A taste of her skin
Harbinger with shattered horns
Promising pleasures of Hell
In wages of sin

Spend my time in lucid dreaming
Nightmares beget, the walls of screaming
When madness consumes the heart
How can you kneel when your god is bleeding?

The holy shall be vanquished
In a wave of bloody trinity
Your god shall be brought low
When Leviathan comes to feed

I know this may seem horrible
But this is the crimson parable
Angels and cenobites
Sample forbidden carnal delights

Too much time in lucid dreaming
Nightmares begin, the beasts are feeding
When darkness consumes the mind
How can you kneel when your god is weeping?

I am the destroyer of creation
I know my station and it’s
As the devil on the throne

"We have eternity to know your flesh."
