Dunpeal

|

Mighty Dhampir, lonely Dunpeal,
   Hunter of hunters, guardian of prey,
Solitary wanderer, his purpose to slay,
   His immortal lineage leading mortals astray.

To those he guards he reveals not himself,
   To those he hunts, their harbinger of death,
One-half human, the other half ghost,
   An immortal noble's nightmare, a symbiotic host.

What they ignorantly fear is his concealed identity,
   Left handed suppression their one genetic concern,
What they cannot touch they turn to demons,
   Shadowless reflection, sun-stroked and burned.

Under the guise of normality he lurks
   with his true form concealed,
Blood lust rider in the darkest of nights,
   this disgraced half-ling Dunpeal,
For sentenced is he by their dogmatic beliefs
   to the shape of their most common flaws,
For christened was he in a church legendary
   and cursed by existence and his dark cause.

"Roam our wastelands", they call to him,
   So both our tribes may see,
An unholy alliance, a prisoner of war,
   Wandering half-ling, mighty Dhampir you be.

This unwilling soldier of two warring creeds,
   His mere existence for both tribes surreal,
A future of neither kith nor kin,
   Mighty Dhampir or lonely Dunpeal?

Dormant Lies The Killer

|
One-fourth of the dusk
   plagued by two-faced dispositions,
Two-fourths of a year
   spent behind this shallow despair,
How then shall you wander free
   without freedom within your reach?
Roaming the wastelands in iron shackles,
   with the aneurysms finally complete.

Long before these turbulent times,
   he consented to be content,
Long after his righteous crimes
   is revealed his truly psychotic intent,
That was before the cerebral throbbing
   while he still had sight of peace,
Before these countless errors occurred,
   rendering the saccharine asleep.

When his freedom is challenged he awakes again
   the demons that keep him safe,
When the seizures visit he revokes again
   his pleasantly concealed state,
To give birth again to the myths he tells,
   mocked by those without faith,
The slumber disturbed to bring forth again Judas,
   with yet another decided fate.

For dormant lies the rage he conceals
   so perfect in its revenge,
Tempered alive with ritualistic anger
   and provoked by his defeat,
For dormant lies the killer in him
   raging to be free,
Annoyed is the killer in him
   by these ill-fated 'abortions of bigotry'.

So rush now slowly to the execution
   and taste the flesh of what he be,
Dead again lies the peacekeeper,
   his purpose he sits down to weep,
So come forward you cannibalistic demon
   and fulfill your prophecy,
Burst into his fears, feed upon his pain,
   and cradle him to sleep...

Evil You In Evil Me

|
Originally 'The Evil In you' by Ugly Raven.

You are the reason for my lunacy,
I am the devil you helped to create,
I was brought up with your sarcasm as your intended toilet,
Constantly fed with your arrogance and your shit.

I longed for a perfect life,
But my family was torn apart,
My revenge against all those in your image,
Be my blood by convention but let me be the flaw in your divine art.

You never let my piper believe in me,
I made myself what i am today,
A strong, numb and senseless being,
A beast with a mortal soul's desired meaning.

You can't kill me even if you tried,
For i am already dead,
If you knew what lies beneath my crooked gaze,
You'd choke on your turmoil for setting free the demon in me.

The clock will tick as always and my time will soon come,
My wrath shall be felt by your egocentric creed,
And recorded as the apocalypse.

Rendition To Hate

|
Originally 'You wanna hate me' by Ugly Raven

It took me a lifetime to know you,
I trusted you with my soul,
You changed your ways within a fraction of a second,
Like the damned Lucifer on a blasphemous roll.

The world has blinded you from yourself,
You forget your past dawning a new tomorrow,
Now you shiver because you desire to hate me,
Because you think that you're content,
I know now why you want to hate me,
Isn't it for your sins that you wish to repent?

You believe in the lies you are told,
They comfort you and you withdraw from the truth,
Perhaps one day you will see the error of your ways again,
Because for now you still want to hate me,
Because i bring you closer to your true existence,
For i know now why you want to hate me,
And take comfort in the thought,
That i hate you too.

Away From All Pretense

|
I had me three drops of blood,
Away from all pretense,
I had me strength, security and honor,
Away from all pretense,
I had me trust, respect and loyalty,
Away from all pretense,
It all shattered in a moment's time,
And now i drown in this wretched pretense.

I had me brothers in arms,
Away from all pretense,
I shared with them chasms of blood,
Away from all pretense,
One of us valued his life so little,
And now we rust away separately,
Buried deep into this world's pretense.

We've had to learn this new pretense,
From our pride washed away clean,
Thus now dwelling within the pretense of pretense,
Hoping i could once again be,
Away from this infernal pretense.
