Ruptured from Nassau by Nassau

I speak to Creatures
They tell me the secrets of the undergrowth
Reeling in chattering fear from abysmal tormentors that dwell below
In their putrid deploring despair
Collectively plotting their rise to the surface
To take what is rightfully theirs
End our suffering by the hands of the Tyrant
Malevolent colossal disgrace

I’ve seen his face
Twisted by the echoes of the night
I’ve felt his malice
Bring down the full force of his might
The hand that tears away the life from all that’s pure
The eye: It seeks to bring an end to the harmony
The face: Contorted by accursed winds of war
The soul is blackened by the hate that overwhelms us all

The ground: It shall be ruptured
Taken from beneath his feet
The sky: Pierced, shall be clear
Blind him and bind him
We Rise
Through ashes and lakes of sulphur
Driven by smouldering fear, seething through all understanding
You can tell by the taste in the air
The roots are in view now
Where once everlasting, their limbs shall be torn apart
And cast asunder
A forced premonition. Painting the sky with their blood

Fear
Wake, hopeless
Clutched innocence
Fooled, broken
Through destruction

Although the darkness calls, and sings the sweetest songs
Lift a hand up, you come to see
It’s all a dream. End it all
Aghast, the devil falls
With fingers disfigured

Collapsing inward, -breaking up
A cacophony of limbs and mud
Carried off unto the depths
Taking a few souls to rest
Though filled with blood the skies above
Cast’s her gentle sight to rest
Lighting up the path ahead
Bringing with her new strength

Allotted to meet the horde in thunder of flesh and bone
In desperate fury, the line overthrown
The fleeing are cut down in droves

Moving close, scarred, only a breath away
Still, worlds apart
Wrought in hope, he’s just a hair from me
Quell the storm

Laying wake to sounds of fervour
A breach, opening beneath
The sky goes on
Hope a thought that’s lost hereafter
A scene, laden with diseased
…The sky goes on

The roots are in view now
Where once everlasting, their limbs shall be torn apart
Cast asunder
The shade creeps further
Somewhere the sky goes on
… Somewhere the sky goes on

Dawn has broken but it’s still not visible
Silent elegy: Unconditional, sirens song pays the toll

Beyond the horizon, somewhere the sky goes on
