Starless And darkness waning slowly A cold enigma Would move me forward O hapless life! Now I pledge to you All secrets revealed now In paragraphs Trust me Over time you will heal Spit on or tend to my grave A man saved from a damnation's winter And the corpse of your father was entombed He is my haunting phantasma and my plague Conjured up persecution of my virtue My internal collapse and spiritual leprosy A Lord Juggernaut Like the bearer of death Waiting Decrepit strategies set Contaminating Eating bits of my wretched throne Forevermore I found no traction in this haze Defiled, I'd long for sleep A tainted family In a tainted sanctuary How could I justify my reasoning? A grave mistake I sunk in cold black light He was of inferior class A servant to me Ha! The irony in this perverted odyssey If our father's word is true, we're are bastards too It's a riddle? No! Or a caper? No! A mockery? No! A deception! No! And my sickly daughter looking on bewildered A jewel in our hierarchy My exalted successor Rise! In my life I've asked of you Take care of your kin, child And her blood runs in mine Over time you will kneel Over time you will kneel Rid your throes from this coronation in reverence Uprooted you are And in the summary coming The proverbial sanctum of mine is up for debate The execution of will The crowning of an heiress You are tethered to command A requiem devised and signed by hand You are tethered to command A requiem devised and signed by hand
