Open the Veil
Witches on earth practice their spells
With grim incantations they open the veil
From astral planes and into this realm
Forgotten spirits in longing sail

Hell on Earth
Where was your god
When they ate the flesh of your wife?
Was it an act of his
When her reanimated corpse tried to take your life?
Were you still faithful to your god
When your children became like them too?
Did you keep the faith
When you gave them death and watched their corpses turn blue?
You watched your family die
And come back to life
As mindless malicious fiends
You’ve stayed alive
Long enough to see
The beginning of humanities extinction
Is this god’s will
To inhabit the earth with the living dead?
Do you think that he’ll forgive you
After you put that bullet in your head?
Die!
This is the red light on human life
Mass populating the world stops here
Those alive endure their strife
And hang on for their lives while they live in fear
To the deceased that walk and feed
We give them death once more
The putrid remains of these mindless fiends
Cover the earth with gore
We kill their regenerated brains
Set fire to their bodies
And watch them burn
We’ve all changed in the face of terror
Because of the way
The world has become
The only god is the gun in your hand
Combined with the will to survive
But you can kiss your pretty world goodbye
Because the dead are alive!
Welcome to hell on earth
We are free from the grips of society
No monetary market system
To corrupt what remains of mankind
There is no law in the zombie apocalypse
No self appointed emperors
To contaminate the world with their greed
Humanity failed this earth with apathy
Wasting our resources
The mass consumers are now the consumed
The once crowded streets
Are vacant and calm
And all is still
Until packs of the dead come along
Welcome to hell on earth

Astral Possession
Decomposing decorum of human flesh
In a forest of putridity
See these terrifying visions of death
With shining lucidity
Below the filth gather spirits
Dreadfully lost in obscurity
An otherworldly dimension
Obscene and far from purity
Your soul leaves while you sleep
And you see this inhumane place of utter disgrace
An astral traveler led astray
Who will not again see the light of day
Your astral form watches your body
Wreak havoc among the living
As it is now a vessel
For a spirit most malicious and unforgiving
You begin to realize that you’re stuck in this realm
That you tell yourself is not real
But in this place of misery
Devastation and grief are all you feel
Watch the filth
As it begins to flood
A single star shines loosely through the carnage
And glimmers off the lake of blood
You scream
In an everlasting nightmare of a dream
Only a few will hear your call
That no one will want to hear at all

Lupine Fury
The wicked witch put a curse on me
I live vicariously for her misanthropy
It is a lycanthropic magic that controls my soul
I turn from man to wolf on the nights when Luna is full
I wake up in the mud and realize what I’ve done
Memories come rapidly and now I know what I’ve become
I tore a woman’s heart out and ripped off an old mans head
By the end of the terrible night over a dozen were already dead
My chest has already healed from a man’s gun shot
But this contemplative mind is tortured more often than not
No mans regrets can compare
To these lingering feelings of remorse and despair
Despite my minds disdain I have superior strength
When I am the monster I can run at flash speed for great length
No mans fury can equal mine
It is on men and women that I dine
I know in my heart that I cannot break this spell
And it feels as though I have fallen into hell
A lunar cycle goes by and so begins the sin
I see the light in the night sky shine and it happens again
I can feel the hair grow on my back
My muscles protrude and my bones begin to crack
As I shift my shape I can feel my blood run down my face
My eyes will change and I will kill all near this place
I howl at the full moon after I transform
The sound like a siren warning of a storm
Striking horror into the hearts of all who hear
The whole town panics and I can smell their fear
I can see the terror in their eyes
They scream aloud before I take their lives
They are food for the beast
I mutilate their bodies for my feast
Now the people can see what wrath the full moon brings
The witch chose me to be her vessel to do cruel things
I am forever damned for surviving the wolfs bite
And I will always turn under Luna’s full shining light
All these powers of mine are lupine
And by them I have grown to feel divine
Unless somebody ever succeeds in destroying me
I will live eternally

This Surreal Demise
And I can hear the wolves again
How they howl shrill
A great storm is coming in
Striking lightning of my will
Thunder pounds among the mountains
Powerful like the feeling within
Rain will flood all through the night
And my blood will spill for ancient might
An angry storm washes everything away
Blackened clouds shroud and clash
With the violet in the sky
Throughout this most ominous day
Freezing sleet shaking the trees
Treacherous hail bouncing off the ground
The dead are howling through the roaring winds
Speaking words so deeply profound
They channel through me
As their words pierce my mind
Graciously bestowing their powers unto me
As their vessel I can see I am no longer alone
With lightning speed
We venture all the lands and seven seas
Traveling vicariously
I roam wantonly into the unknown
I swam with the sharks that day
I ran with the wolves that night
I traveled far and wide the lands
And with the bats and ravens I did fly
Fly in the sky with the ancients
Scores of insurgents ablaze
Engulf sanctuaries with flames
Inflicting global devastation
To mans pious creations
Such a solace
It is to me
To see this retribution
Through catastrophe
Fly in the sky with the wild hunt
Ancient spirits and fallen kin
Invoke a feeling beneath the skin
They ask that I heed the call
To travel with them I must fall
Tonight I will die
And with the ghost riders I will ride
Over the Rocky Mountains and through the wilderness
To the oceans and in the starlit sky
I realize this elemental power
Under the beckoning full moon
In a blaze of glory
I fall to my doom
The mighty earth begets my flesh
And the rapid rivers flow with my blood
The screaming winds take away my mind
And the wild fires burn my eyes
That were looking onto this surreal demise

Queen of Darkness

Queen of Darkness
She was a noble queen
Now damned for eternity
Revenge on the savage men
Is all that she seeks
In her sleep
She was raped by a sworn enemy
Banished by her king
She could not be redeemed
The accused
Was the victim in truth
But he refused to see reality
Despite her most amazing beauty
In a moonlit forest she met an immortal
And he said to her,
“I bestow unto thee, dark gifts of ecstasy
Drink from me, and thou wilt live eternally”
He sank his teeth into her neck
And poured his blood onto her tongue
She then gave herself to darkness
To remain forever young
Through the pain of disdain
She was torn apart
The scorn of forlorn
Has consumed her heart
Blackened and saddened she has become
Away with the light
And only with the night
She is one
On a cold winter night
With the full moon shining red
The alluring belladonna
Lured the King to bed and said,
“I can fulfill thine every desire”
Out of the darkness her light shined bright
And gave him sight
She pulled him tight into her breasts
She warmed his flesh and said,
“I can take thee even higher”.
Her eyes then pierced his soul
Suddenly making him cold
She paralyzed him with her bloody kiss
Then he was told,
“I am going to set thee on fire”
Burned alive
With a conscious mind
Laughing at his strife
The succubus took his life
She is the seductive temptress
With long black hair and lips blood red
Fierce green eyes and skin glowing white
With curves to kill the men that she wants dead
The wrath of her anger
And manipulation will live on
To persuade more foolish minds in the night
Between every dusk and dawn
For the void inside her
Was not filled
By eviscerating and disintegrating
The worthless scum that she had killed
She was prosperous and revered for a time
But now this Queen of Darkness
May never find
Her peace of mind
