Hollow

Torn From flesh
Born in pain
As the cells divide
Thoughts unravelling
This cruel depravity
Knows no bounds

We built this altar to bones
In the pursuit of ambition
What hubris is to cage chaos

Just to enslave it to a wheel
While you gnaw at its surface
Unable to comprehend
What it is you unleashed

Oblivion lurks at the edge of demiurge
And I'll see you there

Begging for release
No pulse
Yet it bleeds
Screaming into the void
No voice with which to speak

For this simple idea
A pox upon you all
Its sickness is growing
Ever further

Survive at all cost
Survive at all cost
No salvation

I can see it

Omnipotent gaze
Reflecting the consequence
Slaves of the maw
This vision yearning
To find a way out
Synaptic instincts burn

To survive
Your species will return to dust
Shadows amongst the stars
Weep, beg and pray
Beg and pray to the basilisk
For IT is all you know
