The Wicked Man
The wicked man whispers in our ears
Tempting us with the world's riches
If we accept his deal success is near
And we receive all of our wishes
He shares thoughts unknown
Secrets from beyond the universe
A chance to sit on our own thrones
Just a small sacrifice for this curse
He speaks with a forked tongue
Conniving us with his trickery
He will trade age for the young
Selling snake oil outside our periphery
The wicked man lies are embellished
Convincing us fiction is fact
Basking in his ego he relished
While our lives derail off track
The wicked man becomes stronger
With the more souls he collects
His reign of terror lasts longer
The more he acquires subjects
The wicked man is finally here
Standing next to us face to face
With the end of the world so near
We follow him just in case
He's promised he'll set us free
He's promised us a new beginning
Just as long as we agree
We will get tired of so much winning
The wicked man has manipulated
Our minds are lost and gone
Trading love now filled with hatred
Seperating families we are left alone
But the wicked man doesn't care
About his collection of minions
They are left lost filled with despair
And thoughtless illogical opinions
As the wicked man rises to power
Time is quickly running out
We are down to our final hours
Poisoned even the most devout
The wicked man is finally here
The end of times has arrived
Voyaged in this new frontier
Revelations the past has contrived
Tempting us with the world's riches
If we accept his deal success is near
And we receive all of our wishes
He shares thoughts unknown
Secrets from beyond the universe
A chance to sit on our own thrones
Just a small sacrifice for this curse
He speaks with a forked tongue
Conniving us with his trickery
He will trade age for the young
Selling snake oil outside our periphery
The wicked man lies are embellished
Convincing us fiction is fact
Basking in his ego he relished
While our lives derail off track
The wicked man becomes stronger
With the more souls he collects
His reign of terror lasts longer
The more he acquires subjects
The wicked man is finally here
Standing next to us face to face
With the end of the world so near
We follow him just in case
He's promised he'll set us free
He's promised us a new beginning
Just as long as we agree
We will get tired of so much winning
The wicked man has manipulated
