~Wrought Iron ******

-

Shaping molten sin into wrought iron ******

Rusted rivet's sparks sail down the spiral staircase

and scatters like fireflies on the stone.

Guitars scream as they lead the band to slaughter,

thinking they own the streets like Al Capone.

 

Molten metallic music with a razors edge

mollifies the faithful like mutton to the ledge.

Mayhem ensues with a sonic boom as

bolts of rock & roll illuminate the room.

 

We're heading toward a revolution,

we always heard you wanted one.

They bought the lie of evolution,

burnt their skin waiting for the Son.

 

It's just a heavy metal observation,

you allowed the lyrics to take their toll.

Today we see the damage is done,

the insane have unhinged their soul.
