I Will Welcome The Reaping |
| Like maggots, they breed with headlines, dining the wounds in breathless |
| cadavers |
| Mirror blind and aimed for gold, Now watch a terror turn on its own |
| They race and they race to the carcass rot to feed |
| And just past decay, this design delivers life, but they prefer to play cancer |
| In chase for the sky, towers uprise. |
| In fear, the earth quakes for what’s forgot |
| They cut like the butchers with pride as their cleavers, as the tide prowls |
| their shores |
| They never listened when we screamed, «Wash the blood from your hands! |
| Rip off the veils! |
| Wash the blood from your hands and run, see what you forgot!» |
| Then the clouds met the sands as the cyclones began |
| In epic charge rose the hordes, all branches and thorns |
| As the stone from their walls broke legs as they crawled |
| The stars had no mercy, they screamed for blood in their fall |
| Six eyes pierce the night and now… |
| 24 teeth in each of the 3 makes 72 white knives your new ending |
| With every slaughter bring your kingdom home |
| How are we deserving this pain we are feeling? |
| How are we deserving this pain with healing? |
| And on trails these symphonies of agony… |
| Can’t you see? |
| We’re still demanding self-pity |
| Look to the moves of the things surrounding |
| We’re the only ones, the only ones who keep from growing |
| One day the reaping will return, and we’ll be butchers no more |
| Bring this slaughter home, and send everything above |
