The Slaughter of the Autumnal Equinox

It moves through the night at terrifying speeds

With it the intentions of horrifying deeds

It tears you apart to satisfy its needs

Leaving your corpse to fertilize the trees

There it is staring at your filthy soul

There it is you can’t even breath at all

When it’s done, it might keep your bone white skull

Take it home, mount it on its bloody wall

Dark metal eyes, black leather death

Squirming in the dirt you take your last breath

A bone white freak wearing chain mail mesh

He leaves you there for months, maggots eat your flesh

As the air it chills, he makes his kills

The bones they break, the blood it spills

Each year it hunts and never stops

The slaughter of the autumnal equinox
