Serpentine Messiah - Virulent Depravity

Orphaned and sold as a pet you plan my demise

Blindfolded

Bound

And silenced

And thrown in the cage

But still you survive

basic needs which cannot be ignored

The promises of limbless reanimation

I’ve revealed myself to you

Come to collect your reward

My salvation is converted to your survival

I do not think you cruel or immoral

Although you have been unfairly maligned

Faith will be unnecessary in the end

All that is required is my life

Perhaps you don’t understand

This world I’ve inherited

Is based upon an investment

In your wealth and longevity

For you were hand-created

And given the ability

To see that I was naked

To know I was your slave

For my sacrifice

You shall be satiated

In your prison paradise

Consuming my damage

My eyes are opened as you shed your skin

Stealthily slipping around my neck

Blindfolded

Bound

And thrown to your lair

No I don’t think I’ll survive

Predator and prey (I am the)

An ancient progression (flesh that you)

In my dying moments (truly will)

I am now reborn (always need)

Giving up my essence (so I lay)

To welcome desolation (down my life)

Cast into a well of digestion

Your willing prey

Please bless me

My serpentine messiah
