Lions of Demise

Do you believe the wool that is pulled over your eyes?
The Lies, the things that I despise are on the faces of the Lions of Demise...
I try to find a way to slay the beast and save the day.
But I can’t run or hide, now that I am one, a Lion of Demise...

I'm broken, sullen, jaded and soaking.
While my words are frozen in time, sated outspoken.
I've learnt to mime and keep it inside for my own omens.
I hurt and cry, tug it and pry so you'll never open...
A locked box full of broken components,
I tinker and close it and throw away the key, so you'll never hold it...
I've been chosen so I molded and fashioned,
Ambrosian magic for all this scolding I'm handed.
As old as the planet I've landed on, granted I'm standing here strong.
Stare in the eyes of the beast, so manic and long.
I panic in song, damn it I handle it wrong,
but these roots that I've planted are massive and strong.
So I have to live on, grab it and brandish it long.
Banished to Earth with plans, it's where I belong.
Can't stand it, its wrong. Smashing and banging a gong,
God resonate’s from my soul right into a song...

Do you believe the wool that is pulled over your eyes?
The Lies, the things that I despise are on the faces of the Lions of Demise...
I try to find a way to slay the beast and save the day.
But I can’t run or hide, now that I am one, a Lion of Demise...

Providence. You’re holy Shepherd's are gone and since,
the Masonic lodges have infiltrated in all of this,
All of us choosing have fallen into a bottomless pit.
Clawing and pawing at the edge but I still lose my grip.
Brought in with foolishness, we’re caught under the rule of it.
I sought out the tools of it and dug up all the ghouls within’.
All of the coolest sin’s inside my shale dune skin.
Under the pale Moon’s dim light’s where the hell I’ve been.
Right? It sure seems that way.
Am I ever going to make it to the break of day??
I should be sealed up and locked away. I’m in a state of decay.
And I still pray. But, is this Lucifer???
I just cant see right through the blur.
These shadows on the walls they lurk.
A dark curse has been summoned and casted
upon my soul with an old kind of magic.
Attached to my back are bad habits.
Come take a ride with me through my madness...

Do you believe the wool that is pulled over your eyes?
The Lies, the things that I despise are on the faces of the Lions of Demise...
I try to find a way to slay the beast and save the day.
But I can’t run or hide, now that I am one,
a Lion of Demise...

A monstrosity. These demons always follow me.
I think I've gone and called the beast.
Ouiji boards are taunting me
to ask them what’s been haunting me,
but, I don’t know. Get to the root’s impossible.
Overdose at the hospital and somehow live to tell the show.
A mangled story of entangled webs and glory.
I once had it all and threw it all to rocky quarries.
Flurries and stormy weather won’t do nothing for me
and so I have to find new things to fill my inventory up.
The war within is such gory cut, covered up.
Lure me to a place where I hate, but I’m kind of stuck.
Detour and stop the truck. I’m getting out now, fuck.
You can keep the key’s to this bitch now, I’m out of luck.
Stuck in the sand and muck, I’m old fashioned.
Bottle up my gruff and stuff it all in a trash bin.
Pick up and smash in all of the last ten
years or so or whatever the fuck it has been...

Do you believe the wool that is pulled over your eyes?
The Lies, the things that I despise are on the faces of the Lions of Demise...
I try to find a way to slay the beast and save the day.
But I can’t run or hide, now that I am one,
a Lion of Demise...

about

HAUL

I inscribe lyrical melodies to beats I fall in love with. A delectably dark past, supremely sensible present and fantastically felicitous future inspire me with every syllable I utter. I hope you enjoy listening to my songs as much as I enjoy writing them. ... more
