All Hope In Eclipse

All hope in eclipse

A thousand nights one succored me

In the shadow of misanthropy

Sat gargoyle-limbed amid my licking flameA cruel tongue at work in her secret vaults

Sent rebellion's embers into revolt

The coming of extinction

Synched to whimpers of my nameLegion I arose, a flood of in humanity

An acid rain to purify the world

The asp at Pharaoh's breast

The atom split under duress

A sniper at the gates of spattered pearlMy heart torn apart, left a rifled grave

Save for an unfurled flag of hate

To enthrall a mindless zombie raceAll hail, all hail, all hail the serpentine's gift

All hail, love fails, all hope lies in eclipseBlack bibles I inscribed

The words, 'Damnation throughout design'

Seemed a bitter truth far better for the lieFor as hope was felled by reason

Forlorn became the season

And death was swift to swallow on the heels of lifeLoered souls, growing cold, tendered easy prey

When heaven's flock, a fair game, dropped

I bored of war with God with greater thrones to claimAll hail, all hail, all hail the serpentine's gift

All hail, love fails, all hope lies in eclipseThere was not a prayer left in this wretched world

Then between the past and the ravening dark

A sly messiah came

In the thick of treaty with obligatory greed

She stole the soul hate had sold awayAn ancient chill blew down the centuries

That night atonements eyes lit a burning man in me

When love lay bleeding and fate's safe feeding

From wounds gored 'neath those cherubic wings

She of kindred light, gladly sacrificed, eternity just to be with meAs the moon whos silvered fingers play

On words and dreams too cursed for day

She led my hand to lands Id not accruedWhere the faun dawn bathed her golden hair

And faith renewed, leapt joyous there

I praised their worth then planned their conquest tooAll hail, all hail, all hail the serpentine's gift

All hail, love fails, all hope lies in eclipse

All hail, all hail, all hail the libertine's wish

All hail, love fails, all hope lies in eclipse

And ignorance is truly bliss
