An Empire of Despair

by Nick Gisburne





Crawling in a corner of creation
Waiting for a toxic twist of time
He is more than just a monstrous aberration
In the psychedelic slime
He is patient as he contemplates his crime

When the chaos breeds him
When corruption feeds him
When he understands the sickness he can share
He begins to build an empire of despair

Fathered by a thousand desecrations
Spawning in a suicidal sea
In a lake of undigested violations
He is eager to be free
As he dreams of what his wickedness will be

When the chaos breeds him
When corruption feeds him
When he understands the sickness he can share
He begins to build an empire of despair

In the horror of his breath
In the majesty of death
In the suffering of everything he sees
His blood will bring the future to its knees

Surging from a septic resurrection
Feasting on the worthless and the weak
There is beauty in the pain of his perfection
Every mutilated freak
Every crippled servant kneels to hear him speak

With a whispered word he dooms them
As his appetite consumes them
In his empire of despair
There is nothing but the suffering they share

When the chaos breeds him
When corruption feeds him
He is evil
He is endless
He will strip the blackness bare
When his body breathes the fear-infected air
In the ashes of an empire of despair
