Evil Rises

Poison to my veins
Never able to change
Withering in pain
This load never lightens
Blackened and rotting
The despair is fresh
What happens when
They're forgotten
Rattle the devils nest
A child runs to their mother
When smothered in fear
What if she isn't there
A modern type of warfare
Evil rises
When we overlook
Violence entices
The swarm of angry beasts
