Imp of perversity at work on the soul of man
Spurring on towards the precipice
An obscene hunger for annihilation
Vicious impulse to drag down and destroy
Led like rats before the piper
By the poison of human nature
No escape from this cycle
For all energy has dissipated
And mankind crawls
Like a beggar on his knees
A beast howling in the dark, trapped for so many years
Now free to exalt in its barbarity
Beckoned to a global tomb
Grinding inexorable doom
Inexorable doom.....
Lost among the ashes
Common grave of all
Destroying just to destroy, raping life out of spite
We are all cannibals now....
Beckoned to a global tomb
Grinding inexorable doom
Coercion with force, Thoth Amon
Mass-grave of humanity, marked for all the ages
By monuments of sharp black iron
As a black rain falls amidst the dust
Shall we crawl the last mile into the pit?
It's not so far at all...
Trapped for so many years
Now free to exalt in barbarity
Pinioned by abjection
Through viciousness and squalor
From nowhere to nothing...
