Betwixt and between the flames and water
Exists a place where souls can be bartered
Anoint with incense and candles burning
Take the guilt from the forever yearning
Perform the rituals of salvation
Speak to me through mystic incantation
Paint me in false golden idolatry
Come and genuflect upon one bent knee
And give offerings of innocent’s blood
In building me up for the greater good
Let me cast away the demons of night
Spellbound as they gaze once into thy light
With your whispered words I am deified
But upon the truth I am crucified

CG,

I really like this. You grabbed me and pulled me into the structure of your words and how they meshed so well together.

I like that.
