Armageddon Halloween

When daytime star lays down it's weary head,
I know, too soon, that all shall not be well.
For on this night, the ruler of the dead
shall once again return from gates of hell.
Oh hear the cries that catch his evil stare,
so full of hate, so full of vengeful wrath.
I know this night, this demon shall ensnare
the souls who dare to cross his wicked path.
All is not safe, there can be no escape
from this tyrant who feeds upon your fear;
In his clutches, lies all our cursed fate,
decided on this new Halloween year.
To gates of hell, the demon shall return
With all new souls to torture and to burn

I hear their cries that plead, "Oh let me go!"
Alas, there is no mercy to be shown.
For on this night, the world shall only see
the sound of pain and death's sweet misery.
Behold the bloody streets the tyrant walks,
Who waits the blood of victims to be stalked;
I see crimson rivers, scenes straight from hell,
A perfect home for this demon to dwell.
No light shall shine upon this earth once more,
there is no reason to keep hoping for.
No savior shall rescue us from his hate,
for doomed is all our cursed and lonely fate.
Dripping with blood, I spy the tyrant's glare;
with hollowed eyes, I catch his evil stare.
He comes not close, nor does he seem to mind;
Instead, he leaves his new found hell behind.

To chasms deep, the demon shall return
to take his souls and there forever burn.
Engulfed in flames, for all eternity,
these cursed souls are bound to agony.
Oh listen close and you may hear their cries,
and feel their pain as tears fall from their eyes.
In this deep hell, there is no coming light
to save their souls from the eternal night.
The tyrant king, now keeper of their heart,
lashes his hate and tears their souls apart.
A pawn, a tool, for his amusing whim,
in this dark world, they all must bow to him.
His plans complete, this demon king of death,
now rests alone and draws a mighty breath.
Though in due time, I know he shall return.
And on that day, I fear my soul shall burn.
