Castle in the Clouds

In the land of all is lost

In the realm of insanity

The Castle sprawls on her hill and stretches to the sky

In lazy disregard

Fear the Castle, flee her minions

Fear the Castle, as she crouches in the clouds

A thousand sightless eyes

Survey her morbid realm

Black asphalt tongue licks up ants of madness

As they crawl Into her gaping maw

Fear the Castle, flee her minions

Fear the Castle, as she crouches in the clouds

The fading light, like the death of hope,

Is cast upon her dormered brow by a sun obscured in smoke

Desperation is written on her doors

With lock and key they keep the screams

From seeping through the floors In the gloom,

fear rises from her heart

Up secret stairs these vast nightmares

Come searching for their mark

They take the form of slender pins of steel

Which silence and divide the minds

Of those come here to heal

The torn skin of her walls

Bleeds dust, choking and dry

This monolith is a prison

For the lonely prisoners of the imprisoned mind

Fear the Castle, flee her minions

Fear the Castle, as she crouches in the clouds

She reigns, this gothic goddess

In her crumbling red and gray

She stands alone and impervious to the pain within

Seeking nothing but the succor of madness to fill her veins

Her scars run deep, to the bedrock, the ledge

As summer heat rises to a leaden, airless sky

The sickness within her seeps out and turns the fields to brown

This road to endless hell

Is paved with good intentions

Black tunnels and twisting halls leading

From salvation to hell and back again

Fear the Castle, flee her minions

Fear the Castle, as she crouches

Fear the Castle, flee her minions

Fear the Castle, as she crouches in the clouds
