This nest reeks of disease Soaked with mites and fleas This nest is a room you'll never leave Beak dripping with bile Scavenge scraps of denial Refuse to settle in Sloughing feathers and skin Cryptic slaughterer I know you fear me Cryptic slaughterer I know you hear me I'll watch you decay This is your debt, now repay I'll rip fragile skin, you'll always be my prey Tumors ulcerate Languish and stagnate Sludge seeps from your pores I'll smile and wait Bending bones that splinter as you tremble Everything you dread Clasps its fingers ‘round your throat Spectre of greed With a kiss so tender Self worshiper Stop praying Your avarice Earns you no pity Desecrate your vows Squander innocence I would watch you burn But that takes too much time
