Beyond the Veil |
In our haste we crowned a king |
In our haste we bore his sin |
In our haste we saw him god |
In our haste; |
born again |
Not in life but words of fiction |
Another fable carved in stone |
His crucifix a graven image |
Impotent faith, to die alone |
A bastard son of a bastard god |
Stolen saviors of ancient tome |
Misshapen idols in manmade temples |
A bloodied hand across our mouths |
Man the martyr; |
self appointed king |
Lied in blood this selfish sin |
Cast aside our sanity |
The trinity of filth and lies |
His majestic pestilent form |
A rotted visage of our vanity |
His majestic pestilent form |
A rotted visage of our vanity |
A cross a star a glyph |
Burnt into our flesh |
From our untimely birth |
Cast upon us until death |
And so we stand, ever waiting the end |
Eyes skyward, ever waiting the end |
Vacuous words read by naïve eyes |
Coaxed out of pages, best forgotten |
Cast a trillion shadows in their wake |
Lay waste to all that we know |
Bloated apes feign ignorance |
Cloth to hide our guilt the stems |
Our murderous nature in pastel rouge |
This morality we attempt to fain |
Man built God creates the veil |
It hangs before us all and waits |
Those who choose its warm caress |
Dignify this empty fate |
Angelic mythos cracked in the kiln |
Shards embedded in the mouths of liars |
Charged nature as unfit |
Disfigured the sanctity of love |
Tore down all that is good, all that is whole |
Tore down all that is good, all that is whole |
