EXPENDABLE
The sunlight burns across the horizon
Slowly roasting the corpses I’ve crucified
Betrayal is second nature to me
As sure as breathing the toxins of Hell
When you find yourself all alone
Segregation in high demand
Spiteful in spite of everything I know
I will cross the line in the sand
We’re all expendable
Disposable and volatile
NO ONE
NO ONE
IS INDESTRUCTABLE
Devour the placenta of oblivion
The stillborn shell shall be served cold and raw
We sharpen our hooks for the feast
Dig deep to get to the heart of it all
M tyrant’s digging a way out
To sacrifice the lamb without
A lost hope to survive the coming storm
War with demons that will snuff out
We’re all expendable
Disposable and volatile
It’s just a crucible
Perishable and cynical
NO ONE
NO ONE
IS INDESTRUCTABLE
EXPENDABLE
Alone in the dark
As you play the part
I’m sick of defending myself
Now you’ll be the victim
With no one but yourself
BLAME YOURSELF
BLAME YOURSELF
There are footsteps echoing behind you in the cold night
Can you see beneath the veil of doom? The face of your plight
You think you are fucking Jesus so you’ll die like him too
Walk your goddamn righteous path, I am coming after you
RIGHTEOUS PATH
RIGHTEOUS PATH
RIGHTEOUS PATH
RIGHTEOUS PATH
And when all of the lovely bones are surely growing their mold
In a mass shallow grave at the end of the fucking road
I have been assigned a title that I never did need
I have never been your Dark Lord because I’m your fucking King
We’re all expendable
Disposable and volatile
It’s just a crucible
Perishable and cynical
NO ONE
NO ONE

'You think you are fucking Jesus so you’ll die like him too
Walk your goddamn righteous path, I am coming after you '
I like that line, the title is apocalyptic ('best served cold and raw')..

Thank you, dear friend. I was beginning to think this was too much for others.

Wow! My favorite dark poet haunts me once again. 😨
I try not to ponder my inevitable death but that damn Hades keeps reminding me that it's right around the corner.🤢
Because of Frank, I'm going to meet-up with a funeral planner.😖
When will that Mistress of DU realize something's has to he done about this guy. 😡

She has realized it. I am a Guardian. Beware, mortals. The Lord of Darkness watches over you all!
