Flood of Blood

As the clouds parted
Is when reality started

Crackling booms across the sky
Only GOD knows why

Some disappeared, Others combusted
Liars, thieves and even ones you trusted

Never to be seen again
Thus the wages of sin

Young to the old
Weak to the bold

There was no discrimination
All at one time across the nation

The ones left turned beast
Devouring one another at the feast

It was a sea of blood
Resembling a red flood

Angels swooped down
One wore the crown

Demons came from the earth
As if giving birth

The battle was a battle
Innocents herded like cattle

Evil laying waste
The violence I could taste

This game I'm no stranger
Never feared a bit of danger

No longer feeling mortal
I've stepped through the portal

Kill, kill and kill
I did and I will

Did I do right or was I wrong
I fear the decision won't take long
