Terminus |
| Hunter of the silent darkness-- |
| Mighty steel leviathan, |
| Rise from your nocturnal vigil-- |
| 'Davey Jones' the time has come. |
| Send spitting fires and roaring thunder--instigate Poseidon’s wrath, |
| Unleash the terrors of the deep uncertain of the aftermath. |
| Attack is the best form of defense--fingers on a keyboard play, |
| When genocide’s a numbered sequence death is but a breath away. |
| I. I hear sirens screaming-- |
| C. See lightning rip the sky, |
| B. Be afraid my darling-- |
| M. Embrace me as we die. |
| Dark clouds gather (tensions mounting)--current tides are making waves, |
| They navigate a sea of tears--above them storms in tea-cups rage. |
| Only Jonah 'neath the ocean witnesses the damage done, |
| But can’t turn back the hands of time--none can unload a smoking gun. |
| I. I hear sirens screaming-- |
| C. See lightning rip the sky, |
| B. Be afraid my darling-- |
| M. Embrace me as we die. |
| The lords of Fleet Street speculate--as noble statesmen mediate, |
| They tread on thin ice cracked by hate--one slip could spell disaster. |
| We gave you power to decide--but now you gamble with our lives, |
| We’ve all been taken for a ride--next stop the hereafter. |
| These implements of science-friction-- |
| Are the pawns of power play, |
| By splitting hairs and splitting atoms-- |
| They’ll kill us all the 'new-clear' way. |
| Entice us through Megeddo’s gateway on this final exodus, |
| As flesh is turned to ash and vapour by the fires of 'terminus.' |
