Slower Darker Descent

Forget  
The joys of heaven  
We are all diving  
Into hell and the macabre
 
Death is no relief  
It is just the beginning  
Of a slower darker descent  
From which our personal purgatory  
Is finally unleashed
 
The turbulence of life  
Shapes the broken heart  
Wreaks havoc on the beautiful soul  
This is when we wish for the dark embrace  
 
The prophecy of evil rings true  
All you need do is open your eyes  
The colours of the day  
No longer mean anything  
Amongst the rivers of red  
 
The divorced existence  
Shadows the sun  
Nothing is truly alive here  
Imitating the surroundings like a chameleon  
 
On the edge of everything and nothing  
The blood of insanity flows  
The pain is never subdued  
It continues to spiral  
Like life into death
