Temple of the Slaves

Unscaved with Time
Never divine
Souls come and linger
In this theatrical pantomime

Temple of the slaves, rise from their Graves
Misfits and jesters alike, juggle souls with rotten spikes
Temple of the slaves, with guns blazing in the skies
A poetic endless war, with the dead at its core

Immortally bitten to mass submission
The spirit of time is ashamed
For thy art is not dead, it’s just in your head
Where imagination strives.

The brain does not lose, it’s potential to cruise
Inside the now decomposed tunnels of time
A show made to say, that we’re not just clay
Our essence still lingers to entertain and play

Temple of the slaves, rise from their Graves
Misfits and jesters alike, juggle souls with rotten spikes
Temple of the slaves, with guns blazing in the skies
A poetic endless war, with the dead at its core


Forsaken creations, will rock the foundations
This temple is on the rise
For the show must go on, so observe what’s been spawned
With no reason or a rhyme

A Malignant infection, 
a pandemic show,
An afterlife achievement
Temple of the slaves
