Souls

I wait atop the mountain

Silent as the night, brooding in eternal pain

Trying to escape that hungry, burning call

For souls, souls, souls…

I walk across the burning plains,

Warriors lie scorched at my feet, dead at my hands

I cry their tears, wondering, will I ever escape the horrible hunger

For souls, souls, souls…

I run through the empty cities,

Crashing through the lost and forsaken, they watch and scream

As my heart bleeds for escape, from the evil demonic cry,

For souls, souls, souls…

I kneel and die

Crying tears of blood, over my beloved's broken body

As her soul is devoured, I scream for release

Release from the pain, release from the void, release from the desire

For bloody, dying, screaming souls…

Souls….

Souls…
