Serpent Rising

In the darkness, do I wait
What they desire, an irresistible bait
Give them what they say
Down the road watch them walk into day
Coiled, patient, the best moment to strike
they fall with a smile, with what they like
Bleed them slowly, from within
Encourage all their vice and sin
The betrayers will fall on their own sword
In their haste rip out their own silver chord
Block out, extinguish the hateful sun
Till Set rises above them all, his will be done.
-----------------------------------------------------
Shaking hands and bloodshot eyes
angry grunts and lustful sighs
Fallen angels, everyone
Not all know it yet, the night's not done
Pain and bliss, stab and kiss
Hide away, hide away
reveal to the light of day
entropy, spreading throughout
barely heard whispers, stifled shout
dragging, dragging into the alleyway
encourage, like a rally way
all the mistakes,
the libertines and rakes
vixens, and degenerate fools
bring down the used tools
Send the mummy to the otherside
smile to the face, but in secret deride
Double faced, you may ask?
The other one, a serpent in awe you may bask.
---------------------------------------------------------------
A mask of manners,
A submissive bow,
a faithful servant,
am I now?
The master shall receive,
just what they asked for
their own hearts deceive,
their own destruction ensure
Like a djinn, wishes granted with ease
They take their own blade and slide it in with ease
We smile, and ask if they would like any help
They've got his now, we're just a whelp
What ever you say, then we'll take our leave to not step on any toes,
And watch from a distance, the death throws
