Reaper

Stalk the hunter
Fallen prey
A game played in an endless maze

Walking hunted
Fall and pray
The same way against the grain

Scythe into the wheat
Blessed ergot
Sow what you reap
Delusional rot

Gone without a sound
Inhale
Then let it all out

On it's way down
In Hell
Without a doubt

Fan the flames
Sacred shadow
Predator restraint
Naked gallows

An empty rope
A waiting head
Sacrificial goat
Two coins for the dead

Spinal column broke
Awaiting ahead
Styx as moat
Shallow bed
Encircled folks
Skeletal dread
Death provoked
Life again
