They follow him…
Like he’s a God…
Yet he treats them all…
Like his pet dogs…
Abusing his power…
And his position…
Spreading his lies…
Preaching with poison…
He preys on the weak…
The lost and the damned…
To those who are drowning…
He offers out his hand…
As they bow down…
Fall to their knees…
And do anything…
So eager to please…
The one they follow…
And they all adore…
He gives them shelter…
If they abide by his laws…
But they fail to see…
The darkness within…
He’s mentally instable…
Where did this begin…
How did this happen…
What do they see…
In a confused world…
Run by his insanity…
Where he kills for fun…
Offering up sacrifice…
Any of his flock…
Who have no price…
They have no value…
In his warped eyes…
Just his play things…
Under the disguise…
Of being his disciples…
The special chosen ones…
Who stand before him…
With no urge to run…
Because they follow him…
And amidst all their strife…
It’s their humble privilege…
To give him their life…
