Crimson Carnival
It's a different world in the carnival of blood
When I'm swimming around in a metal tasting flood.
Carousel doused with a crimson coating
Bodies in demise are slowly corroding.
As I stand and stare at red devastation
I'm smiling as though I have a normalcy deprivation.
A Ferris wheel of once happy times
Is now a wheel of wicked, bloodstained crimes.
Ride after ride. inch after inch of the ground
Gory corpses with eyes wide open abound.
Looking at this tragedy, my eyes scream delight
But your pitiful little hearts, like cowards, would scream in fright...
Tonight the Carnival of Dreams has transformed to carnage
This glorious, fabulous scene has altered to death-soaked garbage.
I'm standing in the midst of this warm-to-the-touch madness
Lunacy is reigning inside of me with no hint of sadness.
In my hand is the weapon of annihilation dripping with thick, crimson human water
If you haven't guessed it yet, I'VE committed the slaughter.
