a ritualistic love poem with a somewhat nerdy reference (that 99% of you won't get), please correct any spelling errors and/or sanity..
I bathe my fate in blood and wine
and stain with pain each sacred sign
carved with care and fresh despair
spears of fear thrown into the abyss
of a nightmare repeated, an elvish fiend retreated
into her forest of illusion
silently wielding her weapons of mass confusion
I am her terrorist, I preach death to her sanity
I am the dark voice whispering:
"come follow me.."
I'll show you a world
where love is more than a word
where absinth-minded, newly blinded
creatures dance, a satanic romance
like any angel falling
you will hear me calling:
"come follow me"
a circus travelling
madness unravelling before your eyes
you will witness this sacrifice
of past, present, and future lies
"god" is only a name
he never was a player, and there never was a game
this is a battlefield where I choose to fight
for that which is right
for the darkness in your light
I am the nameless one
come follow me
we don't need some heavenly grace
salvation is achieved with a single embrace
with an honest smile upon your face
we'll rise above this pathetic place called sanity
take my hand
come follow me

Blood and wine
I bathe my fate in blood and wine
and stain with pain each sacred sign
carved with care and fresh despair
spears of fear thrown into the abyss
of a nightmare repeated, an elvish fiend retreated
into her forest of illusion
silently wielding her weapons of mass confusion
I am her terrorist, I preach death to her sanity
I am the dark voice whispering:
"come follow me.."
I'll show you a world
where love is more than a word
where absinth-minded, newly blinded
creatures dance, a satanic romance
like any angel falling
you will hear me calling:
"come follow me"
a circus travelling
madness unravelling before your eyes
you will witness this sacrifice
of past, present, and future lies
"god" is only a name
he never was a player, and there never was a game
this is a battlefield where I choose to fight
for that which is right
for the darkness in your light
I am the nameless one
come follow me
we don't need some heavenly grace
salvation is achieved with a single embrace
with an honest smile upon your face
we'll rise above this pathetic place called sanity
