Chaos Mind

Centuries of lies, a hollow myth Perpetuated by charlatans with great ceremony The Greatest Show, the living bread The crowd sustained and animated by necromancy The will is fused, the body dismembered and reassembled Eager dehumanization, they tread the path An ancient instinct, hereditary chains Lift the chalice, a cannibal rite Commit the body to the fires They burn all sin to purest white Like bones they glisten in the sun The heart is woman, a harlot's course Chaos bound to ritual law A book to strangle, the human vine Withered fruit, none shall eat A brittle parody of True God's design The Word of sufferance, spread like plague Prostrated before your False God An empty gesture before his impassive gaze Power channels, below the surface Christian mind cannot detect Stabbing empty, fever pitch Turn the blade, release is now.
