2. a gift of malice for thee
forever, i have known this portrait
torn from my abyssic soul
its colours now caressed the world
forlorn as the nightsky, she appeared
her silhouette guided me forward
a mere gesture, and the mist parted
the invitation was mine
if only it were not in jest
he came to her
silent embrace
i remained stedfast
he spoke unto me
"begone!"
the hatred wells inside
why do you vex me so?
your deceision has forever encaged me
fear me (hear me) now, for my name is despair
3. apollyon's gift
alone i walk the plain of two deaths
i see, trees of mercy, fruit of rapture
black horizon, full of despair
the path to nothing spans ahead
i look to the sky, sol, disarming glare
hope of rapture, thence from grasp
rasping laughter, burning auricle
i am without hope
purgatory illness strikes me down
pain cast upon me, shrieking sky aloft
driven further across the plain
inswathed in the onslaught of cries
fallen, i am, taken from grace
decrepit shell, lifeless sculpture
red, the tear i shed
nausea, my souls embrace
stand for this, i won't
suffer for this, no longer
curse your world, i do
a part in it, i don't
stain the earth, your earth
with my final sin
spill the fluid of life
from the 'innocent' it runs
corrupt your faith in life
force my faith in unlife
chaos, terror, reigning supreme
carnage, slaughter, all things cease to be
my gift to you, the final demise
