Seven vials

deep in heaven there lies a vault
hidden within is every ones fault
lies and accusations made by all
enough to make the universe fall

each vial filled entirely with sin
what you've done, where you've been
every story and heavenly pair
embarrassing liaisons and affairs

pieces of paper locked in a safe
forged certificates to pass the grade
masks that hide you from the sun
rewards taken from a patented gun

the list is endless who can say
where in the castle the vials lay
but there is certainly no doubt
the antichrist will hear you shout
at the mere mention of the name
seven vials topped with your shame

one long day in the distant future
each vial will rest on a shelf
a crack in the palace of heaven
starts an avalanche

the war in heaven begins
Lucifer starts his descent
the universe shaped as a coffin
the beast begins his ascent

as the coffin starts to form
everyone inside nice and warm
silk worms weave the lining
the ivy, the bramble hiding

the great trees close the seal
nothing outside to reveal
bang on midnight Saturday night
the coffin is ready for a fright

passion turns to nightmare
spineless moron drops
smashing the floors of the coffin
releasing all the props

Cyclone and tension
Grind his bone to straw
Doesn't know anything
Nothing left to gnaw

The Ents awake and break free
Shake the coffin like a menagerie
Open gaps for spiders and snakes
you least expect it and your bones ache

no place to hide, no lies to believe
no-where safe and no-where to leave
in the darkness you cannot be seen
and no comfort to help you sleep

usual time, same place each week
or silly games of hide and seek
a thousand stories or just one
is there pain so others have fun

All this a prophecy of whats to come
not in your lifetime or anything begun
Not until you pay for your sin
Abandon hope, this is the final hymn
