Churning and Churning - Blood Axis

Laws were they down in the beginning of time

Did they decree a great cycle or instead a straight line

Who now remembers what was once handed down

In this flood of distraction must nobility drown

Where these stand now that the center gave way

What promess of hope comes forth with each day

Are the words just echoes of an angel of lie

Never inflating as the end draws nigh

Churning and churning in the widening gyre

Digging and wallowing in the thickening mire

Hard times, much whoredom

In dullness, slow pain, or frenzy boredom

Like those few who came before

I would know yet more

Who stands up right now, who walks on all fours

In this race with suicide, who’s keeping the score

While all gods have yet to play out their roles

What new ones will rise from the abyss of your souls

Have your ancestors all now withdrawn their hands

Theses words from your mouth can they still understand

What great tale is the end of man’s quest

And if no one knows, can they retrace our steps
