I must drink this poison For my Father In the garden Where gnarled trees Pierce a blood red sky
A taste like betrayal That burns like fire Its prey Shedding fumes Of odious gloom
Getting closer shapes gather before my eyes Adjusting to the night Then vanish behind
The holiest veil Torn away with nails
Empathy sewn On apathetic face Names are carved Into empty space With bloody knives Carried tonight On the road of dissonance Entwined with a Serpents vengence
Leading me to the forbidden tree
From chaos to kingdom From division to destruction Good and evil expand Collapse into the son of man
Alone in that dark hour The Cosmos seethes The Father sleeps Casting us into the deep
