Redemption We Seek

Ask the listless and forlorn
Where are you going?

They seek redemption
And crawl to find it

On their bellies passing through
The three shores of hell they cross

Horrors and aberrance they see
Struggling for salvation 

Pass through the archways of gods
They are hollow

Search the lettered wisdom of man
The book of lies indeed

Pity and scorn, 
We kill our saviors

But redemption we seek
