I scour deep, wage war against the powers that be within me,
Where sin sleeps, grim things reap the strong and the weak,

Taken for keeps, to make seas from tears nations will weep,
I take leaps and rage more than I let cowardice creep,

Empower this freak with a listen and a knock of the knee,
Not from fear, instead just hear the pain now showering me,

Devouring seams inside, confiding, biding, towering steep,
Loudening screams, scavenging sanity, early hours, no sleep,

My burdens sour the sweet, the meek live, the bold fall,
A long wind drawls as we all seek highs to answer calls,

But fear heights and tumbles lest we should slip and be gone,
Seen on the face of a love, haggard, sunk into misery, bawl,

Crawl through maggot meat of all the righteous that died,
In search of the light, in the end it governs their lives,

And smothers their minds, innocence lost, a dove on a line,
A scrub and a shine for an ego just as pompous as mine,

Hopelessly blind, I'll find forever if ever never defines,
The mold I broke to stroke and grope malignancy to benign,

A prophecy that lunacy befriends, a waste of my time,
I sought to be the bitter end, sent to kill an agent divine,
