Rule and Never Conquer

Don't fall off of that iron horse! They'll devour their king. What song will you sing when the pendulum swings? Every tyrant should fear the pendulum's swing. It'll rain backwards and tears will fall back into their eyes. They'll remember your treachery, they'll bury you alive. They'll howl as the moon shines on your demise. What song will you sing when they devour their king? Every tyrant should fear the pendulum's swing. June 22, 2016
