Hubris

from The Architect by Lythronax

lyrics

Eyes peel open
Catch the scent of decay
Arms are tethered
Movement in disarray
Padded walls, padded ceilings
Thoughts now race with past events
“What is this? Where Am I!?”
“What is it that I have done!?”

“Quiet now, you’re in here for good”
“Innocent blood has been spilled on, your account”
Palpitations ensue
Arrhythmia takes hold
“Could it be true?”
“All that they say?”
“Am I capable of wrenching their life away?”

Forsaken, dejected
Memories escaping
Desolate, disowned
Now accepting fate

“This is what I have done”
“A slaughtered family
What Am I to become”

His mind, now afflicted with grief
Wrestles with this torment of which they speak
And in this moment
He begins to believe

IN ALL OF INSTANT
The door slams open with a deafening crack
Light pours in
Shielding his eyes
He can see the figure, of which he stands
He is guided to a room and sat upon the steel
Castigation, retribution
He knows not what to feel
“If it was up to me you wouldn’t be alive”
“If it’s up to me you’ll never again, see the light”

“Don’t listen oh don’t listen”
“I am the one they speak of”
“Twas I who guided your hands”
“Don’t listen oh don’t listen”
“Should I, at your harmless innocence Melt, as I do”

“Irrelevant, meaningless fool”
“I told you not to heed their words”
“Our purpose is so much clearer”
“Enact Valde Recro!”
“Dispelling Inner light”
“You will not deny me my birthright”
“I am the one”
“To take this world asunder”
hands are shaking, trembling so slight
“Before I’m done I shall drink the blood of….
Christ”
