Tenebrous Throne

I gazed in the eyes of death and death was tainted.
He shuddered at the dark hues I painted.

Merged with the darkness of the forgone
Eyes black with the dark reborn

Born to dust, I reach my throne
Obsidian throne, my one true home

I lock death in his cage
Rattling and teetering in it's edge
I smoke the sun, I bring the night
My soul is taint, out goes the light

The stars scream, the dark cheer
The light quenches, the angels fear

I am the Death cager, the End bringer
The Soul quencher, the Deceiver

Now the time is past and is on end
As I embrace the darkness, my new friend.
