Apocrypha Pestis

Far beyond the grace of rationality
A cauldron brims its bile
Brewing ebon toxicity
A blackness to be reviled
Alchemic spells of vengeance
Its potenency unsurpassed
By pestilence, by pestle
Unleashed upon the earth at last
Breathe... Know... Die...
Not unike vomit from a victim of plague
My cup shall overflow of plenty
And akin to the boils lanced from backs of lepers
A miasma for the many
Dies Irae, Rex Exitium
The first broken of the seven seals
Sat upon an alabaster steed
Flesh necrotizing, sloughs off the bone
Fetid darkness permeates the lungs
Human, look sickness in the eyes
And revel in decreptitude divine
With bow and crown befitting a king
This Typhoid Midas presides
Beyond the grace of rationality
A cauldron brims its bile
Brewing ebon toxicity
A blackness to be reviled

Enter to the realm of decadent souls, wherein carnage unfolds...
Into the forest where darkness comes to perch
An invitation to a residence of indulgence and sin
Find an orgy of clergy drunk and draped in crosses inverse
And the tolling of the bell that signals hell to be unleashed within
Through morbid architecture and great gothic halls
Ostentatious carvings spring from ornately festooned walls
Within spires altitudinous the witching hour beckons
A scene reveals, a virgin kneels, so pale and plump and fecund
...And the bell chimes, this time its second
Depraved nobles draped in shroud
To shadow their murderous rites
A wicked prayer is read aloud
Over screams cast into the night
Candle light glints daggers drawn
As soft flesh is pierced from without
The screams, it seems, are all but gone
Once the virgin's tongue is cut from her mouth
Enter to the realm of decadent souls, as the carnage unfolds within
The Dread Cathedral of Flesh and Blood
Hear the call
The Dread Cathedral of Flesh and Blood
The circle of hooded figures breaks its ranks, sated by death
Through morbid architecture and into the forest deep
Never spoken of outside the walls of this sacrificial keep
