Slaughter

Eyes, which once were mine
Now milky stares
Reflecting, my misery
Strewn about, this child opened up
Convicting, this coward it reflects.

Young mother's head yet rolling
Whispering lullabies
A final song to sooth her child with no time left to cry.

Tear out my eyes
Remove their memories
I know where you dwell
Murderer
I am the catalyst
In time you shall see through my eyes.

A family torn apart
Ripped into memories
Shadows taunt and dance
Imitating living dreams
Like this end of the watchman's torch
These remains light my path no more.

Clutch not the child
To your failing chest
Or you shall both become one target less
Too late now the sands halt their fall
Turning to glass an end to all your lies.

The blood coagulates
Wet but gelling still
The pane, it's broken
Resonates my soul
As blood thickens, cold.

You've taken
Everything from me
You're forsaken
You follow, the truth will soon be found
Now swallow, the pain
It builds behind my eyes
I defy!
And soon you shall see
I am (I am)
The one (the one)
From which you should run
I close my eyes
And say my final bloody goodbye.
