How It Began Is How It Will End

"How It Began Is How It Will End"


Losing more and more of what brings us hope

Deceiving words from an arrogant pope

An organization seeks revenge for a loss

An unknown man is avenged by controlled chaos

Dominos are falling faster than they are placed

Fears are taking over before they can be faced

Scatter the masses with multiple explosions 

Burning to death while quoting theologians 

The master barks his orders

The city closes its borders

The decorated ones move in to lock the doors at home

The ground shakes beneath the collapsing dome

Waves crash down and wash away the dirt

Close the eyes and pretend it doesn't hurt

Shiva's dance brings Brahma's return

When everything looks the same it's hard to discern

The captain tells you he's going to right the ship

The queen moves in to take the bishop

The pawns are eaten by the cannibal

The remains are fought over by the animals

It all happened while we slept

Kept hidden in the tears the widows wept

Waiting for their lovers to be brought back

Singing songs of sadness until the sky turned black

Red and yellow stars fell upon their faces

Fires originating from unknown places

No one will speak of the secrets of the King

To reveal the truth is to feel the sting

A paralyzing venom injected into the vein

Using an experiment to erase the contents of the brain

Making him wish he was never born

Or broken the oath he had sworn

One step closer to achieving a forgotten lore

That started in the womb of the Babylonian whore

Impregnated by who she let remove her dress

Birthing the one who would spread this mess

As her name is wrongfully glorified

The saints watch and their eyes horrified

What was once banished is once again rising

Showing the identity he spent so long disguising
