Untraceable Immovable
Ancient tongues
Make covenant
In your presence
A god of destruction
Taking life at will
Lies are his essence
Down by the barn
He slides on hay
Slithering with sweeties
He laps up his prey
Up on the throne
Where stone speaks
Laws are nailed to feet
Left, right, left, right, left
Plodding desperate ground
Dying to retreat
Sacrificial systems
Forged in empty wells
Birthing concessions
Ringing silver bells
July's Jupiter rises
Foreboding vibrates wide
All will be revealed
Slightly slipping south
Belief in the end
Fear's children are sealed
