Taking That Which She Yearns For...

Based on recent events, no one is innocent.
The shadows taking without hesitation.
Flee from lights embrace, take up thy sword.
No one is safe, no one is without judgment.
Pointing fingers at those without defense.
Take back the night and all it holds.
Needing not that which gives forth life.
Breathing in this plague, this toxin, choke!
See the filthy heathens. Sinners, defilers.
Wipe your own slate clean, start anew.
No one gets away clean, no one gets away!
Take this all in Jesus name. Amen. Amen!
