Serpent

Autumn Leaves

Oh, the pain is getting so immense

to casualty of man-made innocence

the horror dwells in dormancy

the sickness grows viciously



Your soul's eroding

you've lost control

the malformation in hideous



The weakened kind, deceased and frail

will answer to their conscience in the end

relentless, there's no remedy

Decrepit souls all bludgeoned by their fate



Inflicted by the immortality we enforce upon the weak

left to rot in a body

already dead, but still alive



Towards salvation, towards the end of life

Towards what seems to be the deception of mankind



As you await your own demise

You gather the pieces left behind

frustration tears your soul apart

Leaving everlasting scars



Your souls eroding you've lost control,

the malformation is hideous



Fouled by the serpent

Blinding your eyes leaving truth so distant

searching for life you now is gone but the hope is there

degenerate the souls of the mentally numb and sickened

Driven beyond all that is real for your own retribution
