Testament |
Sacrilegious and unholy |
My hand continues |
To feverishly scrawl words |
I would never dream of speaking |
Onto scarred and bleeding parchment |
I am torn |
Between the kingdoms of Heaven and Hell |
Quartered by angels and demons |
My shredded flesh rests in heaps |
Pecked at by doves and crows alike |
My very soul is oppressed |
For this battle is far from over |
There is no devil on my shoulder |
For He has comfortably made |
His home inside of me |
Unsuccessful exorcisms |
Are attempted in vain |
For a tortured soul |
I remain |
I am but a vessel |
An extension of His blackened sway |
Imprisoned in my own mind |
Held at knifepoint and forced to transcribe |
His will |
His wicked word |
His will |
His wicked word |
I frantically whisper prayers to God |
When I find myself alone |
But the malicious one |
He will soon return |
He will soon return |
I frantically whisper prayers to God |
When I find myself alone |
But the malicious one |
He will soon return |
And I will meet punishment |
