- MEPHISTOPHELIAN -
The shadows they seem to surround you
Like an infinite shroud
The burden of the weight of the world
Pushing you to the ground
The empty faces always accuse
Time after time pointing
The fingers like jagged poisoned knives
Stabbing with venom stings
Dig down deep and deny the light
For blood scribed scriptures tonight
Mephistophelian serenade
Diabolical and serpentine
Laudanum laced absinthine
You can never forget
Mephistophelian serenade
Macabre Masquerades and libertines
Laudanum laced absinthine
I will never forget
The last time you remembered
The guilty looks of those that deceived
Over a thousand times
The happy greetings, time to celebrate
For all the world to find
The broken will beaten into dirt
Can you bear the stone now?
Scornful eyes stare forth spiteful needles
Bury you underground
Dig down deep and deny the light
For blood scribed scriptures tonight
Mephistophelian serenade
Diabolical and serpentine
Laudanum laced absinthine
You can never forget
Mephistophelian serenade
Macabre Masquerades and libertines
Laudanum laced absinthine
I will never forget
The last time you remembered
Now light the black candles
And stare into the mirror
Will you embrace the monster
That’s staring back at you?
Shatter the iron gate
That is caging in the beast
Let loose personal devils
To devour the sheep
Dig down deep and deny the light
For blood scribed scriptures tonight
Mephistophelian serenade
Diabolical and serpentine
Laudanum laced absinthine
You can never forget
Mephistophelian serenade
Macabre Masquerades and libertines
Laudanum laced absinthine
I will never forget
The last time you remembered

Thank you, Crim. I'm thrilled you felt I was speaking to you. I know a few people who escape in my ink. I wrote this for everyone.

I ran into that word the other day in my thesaurus I liked the sound of it, I think it means 'mischeivous'? I like how you have given it depth in dimension and illustration.... I like , ' I will never forget the last time you remembered ', it fits the theme....
