Book Burning

Slashing the wantoness, grudging deeds With hearts that have no right to beat Whispering echoes forcasting my fate From heaven to hell I spirit away The shadow of wathers haunting my soul Replacing my life for a handful of gold The slings and the fetters of outrageous foes Peremptory baseness where glory once shone Losing the ground at the end of the light Beheading myself no more power to fight Horror beyond the unnatural fear Reflection of lies so threatening near Apathetic servants of the mighty evil Rushing demise, blind decision Exhaustion of my will Habitual turning Lifeless objects, peaceful symbols Book burning The scriptures of freedom devoured by fire Flushes of anger immortal desire Appeal to the gods is ceasing unheard Lamentations sounded imploring absurd My rage unleashed and my glare is reborn Sunshine removed by a cold winterstorm Deliver me god from this treacherous crowd These crystal nights bring the life to nought Losing the ground at the end of the light Beheading myself no more power to fight Horror beyond the unnatural fear Reflection of lies so threatening near Apathetic servants of the mighty evil Rushing demise, blind decision Exhaustion of my will Habitual turning Lifeless objects, peaceful symbols Book burning --- Book Burning - Sodom
