The Deathless Gods

 



A whisper from a deep lucid dream, filled with darkness and pain.



(A lone voice whispers)



You 


All the abandoned offspring of the Khloris



Lost souls caught in the spinning vortex of the Universal Principals


Doomed and baptised at birth 


To blindly chase love sex greed

 

Money and power as the unforgiving winds of yesteryear 


Blow into the new pages of tomorrow 


Where nothing seems to change 


As we sadly watch down through the ages


Blind

Naked and rebellious


As the day you were given the fruit of life


Soon you will all fall before us in endless multicoloured lines


On your spiritual knees


Like the many new slaves of the Agento and worship us

 

The Deathless Gods


For you are so sentenced for being so reckless 


And no other power in the Universe can repel us


For we are the Nexus


The wise ones 

Cautious 


But you

The stupid ones


Always overconfident and soon to be headless 



If you don't change your spiritual ways and reject us


You'll just have to accept us
