Smell of Vitriol

Return of the Ageless Manifesto
 cutting through the righteous circle
 Come, bear darkness forth
 Antagonist - it is set
 Flaring fallout
 desecrated air
 Conceive a world of pain
 as you struggle to breathe
 Ye who speak i parabels
 what has it all come to?
 You've seen it in dead end walls
 without craft to heal, nor stare it down
 What gnaws from within
 can no longer be defeated
 As clouds gather over
 as vital reserves are draining
 We shall absorb this Vitriol
 founded on cynicism and hate
 Vacant faces tear away
 bereft of the saviour's gift
 All that remains
 is an indign world slowly coming to grips
 with its bleak fate
 Leave it be
 or suffer perpetual haunt
