Sound of Silence

I want to scream

Tear my vocal cords

Trapped in a dream

With underworld lords

Run as spiders

Puncture my lithe frame

Hungry riders

Born from the same name

Widow creatures

Venom in my veins

Gloom's gothic preacher

Tears mix with the rain

Slap them away

But they just come back

Blood mess to stay

Skewered on a rack

Consumed by rats

Teeth entering skin

Blinded by bats

A hell's angel's sin

Sharp razor wings

Scrape the flesh and bone

Dead sirens sing

Ensnare souls alone

Zombies hands rise

Bathed with red essence

Boast the demise

Of logic and sense

Claws grip the flesh

Marring perfection

Spirit's unrest

Shadow reflection

Dragged into tombs

Crypts dark and unmarked

Physical doom

Where stark werewolves barked

White vampire fangs

Slice into a neck

Great crosses hang

Across crimson wrecks

Howling banshees

Proclaim the night hour

Death wind in trees

Makes devils cower

Cry out in rage

Clear apparitions

Take the dim stage

Haunting their mission

Deadly demons

Knives in their fists

Eyes like twin suns

Stalk the foggy mists

Here comes the sphinx

Her tail swishing by

Dear dangerous jinx

Desert wastelands lie

Prance by a bed

Tearing off the covers

Attack the heads

Of dreaming lovers

Destroys passion

Defies their romance

Futile fashion

Their extinguished dance

Here lies horror

Shady Death and mate

Both legends in lore

Such twisted fate

Scythe in bony grasp

Raspy metal tone

Immortal last

His wild choking moan

Frightens people

Religious church crowds

Worship steeples

No heed to gray clouds

Lomming above

The congregation

Sapped of strong love

A coffin station

Blade by their hearts

Reaper slides along

Plays grisly parts

Justice for the wronged

Everyone falls

None practice what they preach

At His low call

Skeleton reach

Takes the subjects home

Sleeping in theor graves

Still yet He roams

Over fear's great waves

Remember that

He stalks the planet

Perusing minds

Catching in His net

Lost souls left behind

Can't ever stop

Death in His glory

Everyone will drop

Fade in story

For fear does not shout

That's just a lure

What it's all about

Fear's a whisper
