Opleth

Opleth

the pain inside
 threatens the honesty
 we hide behind four walls
 burrowed pews with sawed off shot guns

 those once claimed innocence in your eyes
 has been poured out by wrath from a broken heart
 the dull sky takes me away to this place
 where suicide is never a solution

 Opleth
 the notion of angelic fervor in its vested remedy
 Satan desires the dripping off of blood out of the mouth's side
 still we run away & hide

 to a field with sullen dreams 
 the stench of suicide gives way to love's embrace
 evil minds that plug destruction
 wandering aimlessly through darkened portals

 viscous long hanging fangs that bite
 eyes with spots having holes
 out of the brilliance of the damned existence
 a clear awakening evokes

 with both hands open in the air
 we then surrender to the very notion of twilight fervor
 A sparkling array of blissful care
 to reach Opleth with every fiber of my being

 springs forth the loving praise of a heavenly attribute
 A new day has just begun
 aim your arrow to the sun & have a bit of fun
