born from evil
born from two
oh, whatever could I do
but hurt
and hate
and bash
and shame
when all I knew was you

born from complacency
born from shame
you harm
and threaten
and shake
and maim
you demon amongst humankind

even I would be confused.

Here we are
standing
over the smoldering remains
Of the fiend that betrayed us
and left us in pain

Its brother lay cradled
in the arms of the Mother
Leering at us with malice and rancor

We're at a standstill
waiting
with bated breath
For the screams and the cries
of the harbinger of death

Beneath your glimmering exterior
Is a heart made of the darkest coal
Behind your beguiling eyes and smile
Is your ulterior and conniving goal

The lofty throne of lies that you sit on
May cast a shadow long and deep
But your disciples aren’t blind to the atrocities
Yet they continue to cower at your feet

But until the day comes when
They shatter your crown
They ignite your castle
And they bring you down

You’ll sit atop your contrived legacy
And continue to bask in your own majesty.
