Burying The Hatchet - Benediction

Tumultuous infraction

When stirred the beast will roar

Implacable reaction

Parasites will be abhorred

But in the easy belly

Where beats the savage heart

Lies yet greater evil

Leaving victims hacked apart

Burying the hatchet…

Inquisitions churning

Guiltless plaintiff dies

Invisible assailant

As accusations fly

Desperate bourgeois panic

It’s never safe to sleep

As victims jump at shadows

And death runs ever fleet

Burying the hatchet…

I am not human

A devil stalks the deep south

Spit forth from hottest hell

Do not seek the axeman

Lest your brains besmear his axe as well

And so persists the spectre

Forever be unknown

Remain a violent mystery

The fell demon has returned home

Burying the hatchet…
