Vehemence The Phoenix

Vultures tear flesh from the rotting corpses of those

Destined for power

Only to be provisions for the scavengers that are left behind

Such an epic downfall, defeated and slain

Eternally butchered and back where they belong

The dirt absorbs the vital fluids

Draining from the king of the dead

Forked tongues and a million eyes

Watch the sun feast upon his flesh

A parasitic banquet, see him waste away

Collect the lifeless this earth is cleansed

Opportune for a new beginning, his holy creation restored

Victorious wings fill the sky to make sure its done

Swords still drawn or at their side

Cadavers torn limb from limb heaped, burned and forgotten

The smoke and the stench of hells legion fills the air

Life returns, infection eradicated

Affliction disappears but only for a while

Transgressions can only be held down for so long

But the serpent is home now

Such an epic downfall, defeated and slain

Fucked for all eternity, where they belong.
