From the ashes I arise
And from the splintered stems of the earth
I return 
With knowledge through struggle
Triumphant through suffering 
The hierarchy of hypocrites and harlots 
Feeding the starving their lies
Forever holding onto nothing 
Desires and dreams of the heart 
An empty well to thy idol
A fountain of opportunity for thy enemy

Up on the cross
I had the most euphoric illusions of grandeur
Visions one cannot express 
Through pathetic systems of language
Witness a splinter as it festers into a terminal wound

Oh Rise!
Thou that cursed me 
As lightning fell from heavens
Let the children believe 
Thy destroyer of nations!
When rotten is the fruit of thy seed
Recruiting the weak 
To indoctrinate the congregation of sheep 
Is this thy divine justice?
O, compassionate one? 
The pages of disillusion 
Corrupt the foundations of humanity

Up on the cross
I had the most euphoric illusions of grandeur
Visions one cannot express 
Through pathetic systems of language
For I see through humanity 
The blood outweighs the soil
Witness a splinter as it festers into a terminal wound

The insects swarm 
To feed on the carcass 
Of their God

Discarded shrines littered with bones
The alter collapsed 
The pews empty
Paint the picture
Alone
My greatest sin is echoed in the mirror
Hung on the walls
In-between my fingers
Locked behind the flesh
Bone and blood
Yet radiating out with a silent aura
The deceit is blasphemy 
When the pride of thy holiness
Is rape and treachery
Such is thy legacy
