Rock of Damnation

from his rock he sends out a deadly summons that calls the demons up to hell that calls the devils home a call for the barbarians to answer a cold wind blows through to a man’s soul as eternity waits inside the furnaces fire and Lucifer sips upon the dregs of society`s ills the wake to realities nightmare of devils and demons living inside hells fires and brimstones where the stench of death and suffering invade the living and the walking dead the demons can cage a man the demons can break a man`s spirit but they can-not cage a man`s minds escape an minds escape upon wings that fly he dreams of lazing on a sun soaked beach a drink in hand staring out at a pacific blue sitting upon golden sands then he wake from dream to nightmares reality of devils and demons living side by side inside Hades living side by side inside Dante' s fire where upon the silence dark a nightmare screams at the sound of rattling chains and steel iron at the sound of lashes from fire that sting upon open flesh and the empty echoes of the hangman’s call despair is born out of lost hope when the demon tighten his grip his grip around a man’s soul upon the empty shells the beasts breed the devils fire burns as the demon wears the mask of innocent then walked upon the path of gold but all he found was burning fires and brimstones it`s a place where a whirlpool surrounds when the mighty winds blow an arctic chill that blows with a haunting sound whistling a freight train into lost hearts across the bay the devil comes a calling
