- - - ABOMINABLE - - -


Cruelty wrought your heart in cold iron
When your malice stares through the looking glass
At a wonderland stripped to the bare bones
Where Mad Hatters sing a desolate song

I am the dragon of legend
Devouring the happiness
I’m so abominable

A contemptress sitting high on her throne
The roses seem to wither at her feet
The thorns I gave to her are nowhere else
But the abyss we left behind in Hell

She is stoic in her revenge
Feeding all the torments and laments
She’s so abominable

Lost cemeteries are so inviting
For those who have long since given up hope
Spilling the blood as a last confession
The quill leaves a scar, a last impression

When the door becomes unhinged
The soul is entombed ‘neath cement
It’s so abominable

The stars align, my sign is nigh
Across the expanse of doom
Bastardize the reigning high
Now and forever beneath the moon

The supernova death head grin
And the doomsayer convent
Is so abominable

So, where is the knight in shining armor
When the darkness shines through rusted keyholes?
The Inquisition voices condemning
Lovers bereft of God, no redeeming

They are stoic in their revenge
Feeding all the torments and laments
They’re so abominable

I am the dragon of legend
Devouring the happiness
I’m so abominable
