Mucus Membrane


Shades Below
What is it that lurks inside the common man? 
Innate evil? Or part of a master plan 
For one need not peer to deep inside the heart 
To find a bit of blackness ready to tear apart 

Your sanity will come with me 
Far down below, into depths unknown 

A seed of growing passion for the dark unnatural art 
Genocide of the innocent, freedom, structure lost 
Becoming sour with discontent as a stillness fills the air 
The time has come for fulfillment, to feed on the souls of the damned 

Growing fear, as I come near 
I'm stalking you, the punisher of deeds untrue 

The voice inside my head, it doesn't lie 
Revealing only those who defy 

Suffering in the shades below, the world in which you live 
Discovering a race of terror is what lurks within 

A dichotomy in principle but a righteous feat no less 
Extinguish the murderers, those whose veins run cold 
On the single minded quest to rid the earth of fear 
At once become the focus of grief and emptiness 

Deep mortal wounds, combust the tomb 
A town is razed, completes the darkness of this day 

Not long for this world, you who terrorize 
A swift glimmer of steel, and the separation of flesh 
Vengeance colossal, the ultimate test of faith 
Left exposed in extremis, my deity seals your fate 

Reject the will, defrock the feigned 
A crown of thorns, which wreaks havoc on perverse exploits
