Black Tears - Earth Rot

Crushed by the merciless hammer, of a poison running deep within

Drawn in by fierce lust grown further than the thirst bequeathed

Demonic power withers, from the infinite destruction cast

Inward by sullied dreams and nightmares plucked from ominous hells

The fire burning deep replaced by dwindling embers

A charcoal left behind, crumbling into dust and nothing more

Once a mighty flame now empty, dry and powerless

She burns his symbol into her flesh

Calling out his name, for the dark lord to aide

No answer from Asmodeus, no answer from Satan

The witch cries out in agony

Clutching at her chest she crawls, across the forest floor

Blurred between this world and next, her mind drifts constantly

Turned back to dirt, she calls out, screaming with furious anger

Curse you Salem, destroyed

Through the eyes of the dying, mirroring the despair and hopelessness felt

Black tears stain the skin, searing acid leaking out

Through the eyes of the dying, mirroring the despair

Black tears bore a hole in the earth

She walks alone, through the valley of the damned

Aimless and breathless, clutching at her chest

Seeking to survive, the hard-wired human instincts

Fighting with hysterical strength

Howls and screams unheard

Or furthermore unwanted

Death cries resound, light dies

Believing like a fool that help would arrive

From the most decrepit creatures alive

From incomprehensible evils that dwell within

The immeasurable evils that lurk in the shadows
