Chance in Hell

You and I are fighting separate wars
Despite your lie, you know what mine is for
Looking back, you had the upper hand;
Your sanctimonious demands
You might try to use them
Just to bind my hands
Time tested as it is
The choice plagues me again:
Lay down my sword and quit
Or swing for your neck again
This attrition can’t be taught
An obsession from having not
Cause all the blood you took
Left me with a thirsting lust
I will return to haunt:
Iron cast in a consummate flame
A self-reliant industry
Forged to hack down all life in its way
This attrition can’t be taught
An obsession from having not
To follow my prey to the end
Drag you back from the depths
When I return with the spoils of my pleasure
I’ll hold up your head
It’s just as well
You stand a better chance in hell

My Fantasy

The difference becomes clear
You heed the voice of all your fear
Despite every attempt, your weakness is cast in stark relief
My fantasy remains:
My shadow on your broken frame.
Gives a purpose to my mission
Leaving room for no contrition
To find the new man
I took the loneliest road
You couldn’t understand if you were told or shown
Greater resolve I’ve found even now
Surrounded by a cloud of crippling doubt
The odds can do naught but entice me now
Though the stake that I lay is my soul
A life for my forbidden action
A final grasp at satisfaction
To find the new man
I took the loneliest road
Now all that’s left of my plan is make you kneel and behold
My fantasy
You feel it now though you deny:
A power stalking, in the corners of your mind
This time it’s mine.
