The Ragged Haggard Man


Demonic voices Drenched in acid rain Despicable noises Depressing pain Hand me the gun Free your soul Break the mold The sun was shunned Thorns twisting around Crushing your bones Corrupting your senses A guise for dementia Follow the buzzers To a land barren and empty Once so lush and vibrant A broken nightstand memory Masquerade misery as freedom A land with dreams Is now a dilapidated wasteland Of antiquated ideas Fracture bridges To finalized the divide War is coming Disguised as righteous deliverance A war to end all wars An end to life as we know it Pitiable but true Embrace the apocalypse Demonic voices Drenched in acid rain The ragged haggard man Writes his final ballad

riveting, my fav line: Follow the buzzers To a land barren and empty One so lush and vibrant A broken nightstand memory nice!!
