The door

A goat’s head effigy hangs in the shadows

Lit by a single red candle that glows

Behind the heavy wooden door

Dried matted blood and hair on the floor

Evil dwells in this malevolent place

Hiding its perverted ugly face

Here but a few hours ago stood the cloaked

Tall and bloody standing soaked

With an innocent at their feet

Naked with only her heart beat

A gasp of breath and all life was gone

Sacrificed to The Whore of Babylon

The end of the world is near

Soon he the master will appear

All those who do not worship his name

Will only have themselves to blame
