Wrath and Regret - Benediction

You could not destroy me though insidious you tried

I detest your seed, you have abhorred me for the final time

No serpent to bar the path of my will

Casting off the yoke of your burdens, do as you will, I’ll do as I must

Such brightly glinting promises revealed in truth as dust

All of you that was golded lies tarnished by your fear

Would that I could feel remorse — regrets recede when wrath draws near

No serpent to bar the path of my will

You will not condemn me

Eradicating root and branch

Duplicitous and ill advanced

Twisted features compell me

To rid you of your vanity

Accusations have damned you

I could hurl defiance at your corpse but I wouldn’t waste my fucking breath

No serpent to bar the path of my will

You would condemn me for being what I am
