Devil's Teardrop- a Fallen Angel's Stain

I wonder... Wherever this nebulous varmint is Here, there, everywhere Does he ever look to himself in shame He who leaves his iniquitous stains For all the hatred he lays claim? He gives tongue to the anemic, weakened mettle Wheezing his nidorous, putrid breath into its chambers, Leaving behind his dark black, deadly whispers Of desolated emptiness- this demonic mister He entombs them alive, those he perversely abducts In his Cimmerian, shadowy hell Slither back to your bottomless pit You tenebrous angel from purgatory You don't deserve a capital 'A' In your God forsaken name Demon of greed and endless shame Conjuring up ways to wickedly ensnare Those who've weakly stumbled to their knees You were cast down from the Great One's Home You don't deserve this world to roam This is 'Lights Out'... The demise of you and me And everything I used to be! Don't hurl me your meager crumbs of wretched love As you wickedly tally my teardrops in The Mighty's rain You menacing angel- I'm aware of your despicable fame I'm through dancing to your stygian, sooty song Go back to Hades where you chose to belong You cheat, you lie with your unlit callous facade You cerberus hound from hell- you are not from my loving God I see behind your lurid, false masquerade You, malevolent angel cast from Heaven above I pray... You incubus, you succubus Recoil back to your wicked, burning inferno Go crawling back to your lake of fire Ye who chose crepuscular, selfish desire And... Pathetically became you
