Fat Cat

Tears of blood flood the sky,

While you & I drown in iniquity;

Forgetting piety: abandoning sanity--

Lost in vanity: searching for hope & certainty.


Amazed at the brevity of love & devotion:

Falling victim to complacency,

Not to mention the reality of heaven & hell.


Demon's weevil into the hearts & minds of humanity.

Feasting upon our hope--our faith--our sanity.

Negating love with hate, falling victim to lies & fate.


Satan thrives upon religion & unbelief.

Like a thief is he who comes to steal, kill & destroy--

Robbing us of hope: devouring our faith.


We give into hate--regurgitating lies;

Sitting comfortably, riding upon the dragon of our deluded alibis.
