'Cognito

 
High on a pile  
of dollars  
Babylon licks her ass  
stash of gold  
stuffed in her panties  
for when the end-times  
come to pass  
Shit once written  
now forgotten  
served her well  
in times of stress  
fates awash  
upon the mountain  
scorning Earth's  
first sweet caress  
Now she's coming  
back to haunt us  
while sinners plead  
for mercy's grace  
life's destruction  
all around us  
and the whore  
she has no face  
Purging love  
from hearts of children  
a war of fools  
who watch and stare  
hopes are shattered  
for the many  
while the few  
cling to despair  
See her coming  
back to haunt us  
while sinners bleed  
for mercy's grace  
Your destruction  
all around us  
as the whore  
reveals her face
