godhead's lament

• marauder
  staining the soil, midst of stillness
  beloved fraternity to an end
  red eyes probe the scene
  all the same
  stilted for the beholder
  depravity from the core
  handcarved death in stoneladen aisles
  
  i hide the scars from my past
  yet they sense my (mute) dirge
  this is when it all falls apart
  white hands grasping for straws
  
  sly smile, poisoned glare behind
  undisguised manmade nova
  mute cry, don't dare to tread
  searing beams tracking you down
  
  adoring what never has been
  some will bring with them all they have seen
  
  searching my way to perplexion
  the gleam of her eyes
  in that moment she knew
  
  thought i could not leave this place
  on this imminent day
  as i've reached the final dawn
  to what's gone astray
  what would they care if i did stay
  no-one would know
  what would they care if i did stay
  no-one should know
  
  thought i could not leave this place
  on this imminent day
  as i've reached the final dawn
  to what's gone astray
  what would they care if i did stay
  no-one would know
  what would they care if i did stay
  no-one should know
  
  still brooding, soothing clam
  that rigid, twisted face
  blank godhead, tear my name
  lost virtue, frantic lust
  
  sly smile, poisoned glare behind
  undisguised manmade nova
  mute cry, don't dare to tread
  searing beams tracking you down
  
  adoring what never has been
  some will bring with them all they have seen
  
  searching my way to perplexion
  in crumbling faith i saw her
  bearing her pain in the wilderness
  the gleam of her eyes
  in that moment she knew
