The strong scent of the old gods still lingers here
they were many in the forests and the rivers clear
their spirits once held power we could not contain
now they're hardly more than shadows in mans domain
we conquered every corner in hopes we would thrive
though you see, without the wilds we can hardly survive

Larvae burrow into the eyes of children but it's just part of his plan
if true hell is reserved for my kind where is it we now stand
divine beauty is cited while misery is conveniently excused
when making a case for your loving creator these words I choose
brother murders brother while both claim the blood of Abraham
yet the very worst of all his children is this thing that I am
a doubter, my questions unanswered and still I have many more
why should using god given reason be the thing he most abhors
the most vile part of this whole facade wrapped up in angel song
that mans limitless depravity, with god at his back is no longer wrong

Where ever you are.
That's where my heart resides.

Came into to me and I don't know why.
And I really don't know how.
And I had no intentions.
You gave it life when I didn't know it existed.
You creeped into me, and you nourished me.
You blossomed impossibly like a flower through the cracks of my soul.
And gave me what I never knew I always needed.
You completed me.

Crush me within your arm.
Pin me to your chest.
Keep me safe and sound.

Never let me go.

That he whispers.
So soft
So sweet.
Uttered promises
That he always keep.
