Evil

.Evil A wormy apple bruised bread crawling with weevils Mottled black and blue Essences of evil Skull and crossbones warn deadly poisonous gas Tortured cries and moans Creepy sutured mask Disguises of light and truth Hiding grotesque thoughts Someone follows you Security, safety lost Empathies a myth I alone am real Fill your terror with All that I don't feel Bodily pain excites But even better I crave Destruction of the mind Making you depraved A little harmless here A bit of, only human, there Deeper darkness steer Till it's hard to care I knock a jolly rhythm To distract you and disarm You unlock the first one and Quiet the alarm Peeking, who is there? Show all my wicked teeth Desensitized you stare And open the door to me.
