Reign Of Terror
How did he conjure the idea
that he could change the Human Race?
That man with hair and eyes so dark
and a pallid sallow face.
What motivation did he feel
when he claimed six million souls?
What gave him the right to seal
the fate of inhuman goals?
Blond hair, blue eyes and rosy glow
thats how mankind should be.
Illumination and salvation
excuses, for atrocity.
He shed his mortal skin
when at last he was defeated.
Not from fear of Godless sin
and the chaos he'd created.
The sound of six million cheers,
raised in unison,
still echo down the endless years
to the depths of his crimson prison.
