On My Way to Perdition
On my way to perdition
I met a man cloaked in misery
who sat upon inverted throne
and sang a baritone litany
So enthralled to his intonation
the cadence upon my heart
from his eyes such delight
once I began to fall apart
Now I on this false kings throne
into servitude, my very bones
veiled in midnight gloom
chanteuse, I herald doom
