Once Upon a Death – Suresh 10/09/09
The lonely wolf of Eden
Sheltered from doubt and fear
Wounds run red in the face of the river
Let your soul look into a mirror
While the fruit of knowledge rots by your feet
The lonely cross on Calvary
A thousand Judas kisses floating in the wind
The hand that cracks the whip
Rocks the cradle and therefore rules the world
Yes my friend the wretched truth hurts
A broken doll with a pretty frown
The Anti-heroes and martyrs all play their part
In shaping the end and its genesis
The human will is fragile and weak
Like a glass fortress prison
40 days and 40 nights tempted and tested
Angels crash and burn in liquid skies
While the big machine leeches on and on and on and on
Once you’ve had a taste
Of the forbidden life
Once you’ve worshipped your sin
Your only principal is choice
Free will tastes the same
Everyday in every way
Once upon a life gone wrong
Once upon a death
The lonely golden eagle
On a mountain of ash and bones
Scarring black, virgin indigo sun
Hoping blindly for people to change
The earth is painted red in its death
While the wheels of evolution crushes everything in its path
Once you’ve had a taste
Of the forbidden life
Once you’ve worshipped your sin
Your only principal is choice
Free will tastes the same
Everyday in every way
Once upon a life gone wrong…Once upon a death
