Second Falling by Chris Sorrenti
so easy it is to grow the fur, child
how many times must you sell your soul before getting it right?
no longer an adolescent making new mistakes
for a fleeting glimpse of Heaven
where guardian angels fear to follow
racing towards that state of mind you've seen one time before
personal Anarchy’s about to shift into overdrive
but surely you’ve learned to handle the Speed by now
see the winged gargoyle escorts darkening the skies
salute them like SS soldiers
secret agent as they fly above...close beside you
fifteen miles behind enemy lines
definition of the word alone
the principles of rightiousness
stand ready to defend you
though make haste shifting into reverse
for soon comes Judgement Day
till then pay little heed
to the evil mirage growing on the horizon
no, nothing much to get worried about...
it's only the gates of Hell
