Reflections of Inanimate Matter

Two five zero thousand people are known missing at any time, on any day. Depart their lives and shed their kin, to unknown paths, lonely, they stray. No disruption to their normal lives, to work or play as always, leave. Destination never met, a familiar face that no one ever sees. Where are they now? [Chorus:] Dead or alive, not known. Nothing any can do, (just) await their return. Young or old are lost, disappearing without trace. This missing population still walk among us? Someone knows their face. Endless pleas plague the press, photo-fits adorn every TV screen. Can everyone say the face before them is one they've never seen. Who are they now? [Chorus:] Dead or alive, not known. Nothing any can do, (just) await their return. Hear them, feel them, waiting. Dream them, sense them, shadows. Out there, lurking, unseen. Growing, feeding, strong.

Dark secrets lay hidden, act normal, who's kidding. Urges roaming wild, Innocence the child. Joy in my eyes as I listen to cries. Mercy Pleading voice, leaves me no choice. Bodies lay bare, begin to stare. Touching the dead, my hunger is fed. The tearing of skin, steel slipping in. Blood running free, come taste with me. A thirst without quench as a smell but no stench. The world it stays blind, understand my mind. No way! It's just a game, excruciating pain. Losing control, God, cleanse my soul. A body lies draped, a life I've just raped. It feels so good, the way that it should. No boundaries, no line, what's yours is mine. Tell, I won't dare, no burden to share. [Chorus:] Polymorph perverse, God guides my course, Polymorph perverse, showing no remorse. Suffer with me that sensuous thrill. Cuts, scars and bites, euphoric kill. Piercing the flesh and caressing dead skin. Bright lights of life now begin to dim. Eating her waste as I masturbate. Feel the pleasure, ejaculate. Needle incision, I punish my deeds. Torture fulfiling all of my needs. Throbbing inside me decides my will. As darkness descends and all is still. Nowhere to turn, let the candle burn. Nobody hears me, will they ever learn. [Chorus:] Polymorph perverse, God guides my course, Polymorph perverse, showing no remorse. I feel the need, this deep burning seed, That I endure, it seems to cure. Love, hate and power, the emotional shower. The public infest, now I cannot rest. What's right, what's wrong, when feeling this strong. Mad or insane, diseased in the brain, Tell me!

I have a job to do and it will be done. A plague too big for us to work on, and a solution that we all can ignore. As night closes in I discard my badge. This killer, by day, is the law. [Chorus:] Run from me, my child. You're easy prey. Sleep as warmth turns cold. Ending life. Safe no more anywhere. Lightning strikes. Those I can kill, I do not hate. And I care not for those I protect. But still I relieve us of the homeless ones. A sentence of death, and what for? Being excess. [Chorus:] Run from me, my child. You're easy prey. Sleep as warmth turns cold. Ending life. Safe no more anywhere. Lightning strikes. Bodies adorn the streets. Drenched in scarlet light. Murdered in their sleep. Robbed of life. Hidden behind masks. Shadows disappear. All trace of guilt erased. Work complete.

Drown, all my dreams are now gone. (bleed me). Fear, of what I have now become. Fade, all hope of my rise is now lost. Another bleak horizon. Fall. [Chorus:] The fire that has kept me warm, Now fades as winter nears. Lost, engulfed in despair I now cry. (Purge me). Sleep, these slices of death are so real. Calm, no point to deny what I see. Another. This world of mine cries, now. No more of these lies, now. Please keep from me, the reasons why, I have failed. This world of mine dies, now (in my eyes).

Follow me for I'm the one, a Holy man. A chosen son, I can see the path to heaven. Give yourself, believe in me, As I twist the words you cannot see. Blinkered aim, it shall lead to salvation. This I offer in exchange, your loyalty, And trust I gain. [Chorus:] Sex, faith and power give me control. To prepare for the end of the world. With the fire power to take us there. We shall see the end and be set free. Feel armageddon draw near. Arm, prepare for war. They have come for us. The holy seed imbued in me, To spread amongst my family. Wife or daughter, send them to me, My lust for sex, you fulfil, Underage? I love them still. Separate, sacrifice, strength increasing. In control, one with me. I think of this as destiny. [Chorus:] Sex, faith and power give me control. To prepare for the end of the world. With the fire power to take us there. We shall see the end and be set free. Those few who weakened were released, As we prepared to defend our truth, An exchange of force was then engaged. Judgement leaving to sit and wait. The end came soon entwined with flames. By our hand? Blackened ash remains.

The rays in which you bathe, weaken and grow dim. Their time is now pitiful in my darkened form. The drug on which you rely, insufficient and lessening. Overwhelmed by your buried self from which you hide. Trapped, as the earth, below my frozen shell. My days flow by fast while months seem like years. [Bridge:] Dark walls close in ever tighter. I gasp for air that burns my throat. To see my soulless breath. I succumb, take me home. [Chorus:] I spread misery, Loneliness, insecurity, With the failing sun. I drench your skin into which I slowly seep. Raping your mood and calm, I cloud your mind. Shivering and numb, you yearn for the orb. A return to its sacred warmth and light. Not able to face the day, lethargy spears deep. Feel my hunger, now your lust for food increased. [Bridge:] Dark walls close in ever tighter. I gasp for air that burns my throat. To see my soulless breath. I succumb, take me home. [Chorus:] I spread misery, Loneliness, insecurity, With the failing sun. I bring tragedy, Downfall and depravity, Feel my decay.

Solitude beckons upon my night, Pleasures of love the long lost fight, In my departure from reality, Live my twisted tales of melancholy, These depraved thoughts fed by demon drink, Inebriated murmurs I hear myself think Maybe cruise the bars and ensnare some prey, Bring them back home, I know he'll stay, Unaware of my ill intentions, Never sensing my bane sensations. [Chorus:] Come with me and join my friends now, Human trophies adorn my home now. Desires robbing you of your last breath, No one sees within these walls of death, Lying still there in eternal sleep, How my manhood enters deep, There's no need for any force, In this post mortem intercourse, Feeling of power over lifeless soul, Feeds my hunger for total control, Nevermore am I to be alone, You shall never leave our home. The blades of my knife and saw. Through the blood I now drill this whore, Tear off his limbs and head, No longer do I see the dead, A stench permeates the air, Another trophy I here declare. The painted skulls I hide, The body parts I fried, The carrion I strip, Cadaver in acid dip. As I enter this domain in which he dwells, Clouds hover over rich in putrid smells, I sense dark secrets never before told, Pictures on his wall let it all unfold, A forest of fear swells in my head, Dreamless slumber I sense mortal dread, Hold myself together for I must take flight, From this charnel-house, try with all my might, I know that solace lies beyond that door, God, will I ever flee his quietus claw. [Chorus:] Come with me and join my friends now, Human trophies adorn my home now. Come with me and join my friends now, Human trophies adorn my home now.
