Spirit
Beyond the mountain
Where waves crash into the shore
From the pool of souls
The supernatural accepts death
As the angel takes life
Ascending into the dark heavens
With believers of hatred
Transcending to their belief
Attempted coup de taut
RAH RAH RAH!
SIS BOOM BAH!
The cheers rant
And the soldiers rave
Their grave has been found
And vanished among the stale air
Swallowed by the abyss
Roasting over fire and brimstone
Loathing those who remained true
Those who swim in their own tide
Beyond forever
