- - - THE TRAVELER : PERSONAL DEVIL - - -


Chaotic thoughts abound
A twisted synapse
The ragged voice resounds
An inevitable collapse


Something seems to gnaw upon
Innards, ravenously
Slipping a forked tongue in my ear
Graciously, sharing venom with me

I am Traveler
In the company of a
Seductive reveler
Demon hitchhiker
From below
Fused to my soul

Standing at a crossroads
An impasse of iron wills
The tempest in the coffin
Is moving in for the kill

I see it in the mirror
Tempting eternally
The splendors of the rabid night
Viciously, she is condemning me

I am Traveler
In the company of a
Seductive reveler
Christened Angelique
Once reveled
Became the devil

Staring at open flames
She is there behind my eyes
The cold nail in the coffin
Driven straight into my heart

Those sordid nights
As I Hyde in the dark
When the sun does rise
It's no one else's hands
That are soaked in blood

Angelique, thanks to you
I am branded a madman
Angelique, thanks to you
I am branded a sadist
Angelique, thanks to you
I am branded a killer
Angelique, thanks to you
I am branded a monster

I await in shadow
Trapped in my body
To sate the hunger
Of death and sodomy
My Angelique
Has become my
Personal devil

Chaotic thoughts abound
A twisted synapse
The ragged voice resounds
An inevitable collapse
