Flying The Black Flag

A subterfuge emerges from the confusion
Corrupting patterns, piercing the timeline
A trail left emblazoned with no regard
They fly the black flag high

Ubiquitous backstab
Maddened insurrectional acts
Rampant misinformation
Slaughter of defectors

These great tides of change usher the new
Those who can withstand the pressure offer resistance
Quickly slipping between the cracks
The path towards ascendancy lays at the extent of their reach
Infinite interstellar genocide at their feet
Annihilation necessary, destiny complete
Every last soul, by their hands, deceased

Throats slit before devout and jeering swaths

The separation further persists, a force of paralyzed minds
Prejudice and murder through fear
Remaining deaf and blind, an ideology to evolve, alas
Harsh betrayal, abandoned to the past
Explosive dismantled and devastated
Forcing new subjects, they carry out deeds of carnage
Slicing and dicing, disintegrate, obliterate

An ancient subterfuge spawned out of pure ignorance
Civilized erosion highlighting their human nature

Ideological forsakers are stripped down and cast into the light
Throats slit before devout and jeering swaths

With or against, it matters not

Entrapped betwixt tandem forces clashing
Are the abandoned, unfortunate, void of regard
They fly the black flag high
They fly the black flag high

Spewing of hatred through messages written in blood
Effectively defecating into the mouths of their brethren
