Contra Mores
Each word- an inferno
My tongue of fire
The flames of hell burn fierce and purify
Incompetence hangs from a tree
A moral inversion
King of Slaves will never rule me
Now- what man has created
Man can destroy
I am my own redeemer
I am predatory animal in fugue
Blessed are the ones that doubt me
Fires usher no deliverance
From a construct built on fear
In step with what is nothing more than a litany
Of moral ambiguity
As environments change
No human thought stands sure
Witness the end of all I know
This is the end of all I know
To feel the weight of the world
Weighing on me
How can I believe
What I can’t see
Our scars will show us who we are
The way a man should truly be
Giving to this world
Despite the things it’s taken from me
I will never see myself becoming what I can’t abide
I will never be you because I know there is nothing inside
Show me what you’re worth
When everything has run its course
And must return to the Earth
