BODIES EVERYWHERE
I stand on the shore as the river flows by
Scarlet with hunks of meat and bits of bone
I wash last night’s festivities away
The last of you is swirling down the drain
The beast within me hungers for flesh
Welcome to the party
Entertaining thoughts of your demise
As your clawing at the wall and screaming in despair
Once oh so timid as a church mouse
Now you clawing at the wall with bodies everywhere
Red Riding Hood in skintight leather
With a basket full of party goodies
Vials of chloroform, pills of Rohypnol
Wake on camera and tease me with a “no”
Sit down at the banquet for the damned
The lights are up tonight
Entertaining thoughts of your demise
As your clawing at the wall and screaming in despair
Once oh so timid as a church mouse
Now you clawing at the wall with bodies everywhere
I still see your shattered face in my dreams
A sweet melody of piercing screams
Echo with eternal sorrow
Where you crawl the camera follows
Home is where the heart is
Love you tender in pieces
Embrace you forevermore
Jesus saves nevermore
Entertaining thoughts of your demise
As your clawing at the wall and screaming in despair
Once oh so timid as a church mouse
Now you clawing at the wall with bodies everywhere

I apologize for repeating with my usual comments, but it is true here as many other pieces...Your rhythms always spot-on
Very lyrical and is what I always love best-Quite the imagery!!!

I was a goner when I saw that gleaming hook. Totally terrifying and awesome all in one. I felt like I saw there seeing it all. Yikes! Well done. <3
