Ed 04:48
It’s getting dark, darker all the time Nightfall seizes the last light of a fragile mind Killing fields expand across the land Unfamiliar footsteps left behind in the sand (Ed Gein Verse) The dark agrees, agrees with me Loud as a roar, silent as a whisper Begs to be released, for me to give in To be unleashed to the land of the living Come to us, innocent casualty Demons Summon Mortals Feel the blade, act of brutality Demons Summon Mortals (Ed Kemper Verse) Here comes the urge, to see how it would feel My self-indulgence will make you meet the steel Your destiny, already known to me As the hammer falls, will never be revealed Raging inside, condemned to slavery Demons Summon Mortals End of reason, beyond mind's periphery Demons Summon Mortals The dark my own prison My demons my own wardens Incarcerated body, incarcerated mind State-enforced exorcism Can’t you see I’m free?

Infinite from outside of time Cipher of my existence Nothing, everything and all That lies in between Unwritten words of poets Unuttered word of God Unanticipated Confessions of love Searching for the crimson room Man of the Book Searching for the meaning of I True story of my death I, between drowning and incantations I, alone on a page of my own My confessions, my depravity Sins of the Purifiers, burned by the thousands Centuries of men contemplating Oh time thy pyramids Haunted by the hidden truth Which conceals no meaning Prefabricated divinity Creation pre-empted Abysmal totality Monolithic solitude Searching for the crimson room Man of the Book Searching for the meaning of I Book written before my birth I, between drowning and incantations I, alone on a page of my own My confessions, my depravity Sins of the Purifiers, burned by the thousands When the arcane has been absorbed from untold pages Shelves of all the four walls exhausted When all domains of long-gone librarians have been disturbed Nothing has been gained I, between drowning and incantations I, alone on a page of my own My confessions, my depravity Sins of the Purifiers, burned Bodies falling eternally Dying as they fall, decaying in descent Entering the maze divine As I now join them, I shall reveal the truth

This world is yours They have tried their best To give it away Servile soldiers of nothing Their misguided dreams Led them astray This time it’s different I will enter the fray I will hate So you won’t have to I will kill So you may live I can live in fear So you can be free I will fail No matter what I do This world is yours The path running short Now reveals it’s meaning to me True purpose of a legacy How will I make it so? That they will fall and you will soar Will they listen in life? Or will it take the void? I will hate So you won’t have to I will kill So you may live I can live in fear So you can be free I will fail No matter what I do I’ll have to go You’ll need to stay I hope it all becomes real I’ll have to go You’ll need to stay I know I won’t see that day I will hate So you won’t have to I will kill So you may live I can live in fear So you can be free I will fail No matter what I do Will they listen in life? Or will it take the void?
