ANARCHY - II. Fratricide

Shall lunacy eclipse destiny?
To kill the new decree amidst enmity?
Shall this remedy bring out ecstasy?
Shall a phantom king damnation bring?

Waylaid, crass, and clandestine
I know what vile deeds have befallen
Abhorrent ascension, a parabola
By sin you rise or by virtue fall
But if you can, then fall you will

Cain and Abel, but royalty
I am that hex delivering fate
To taint the meaning of loyalty
Through funerary wedlock disgrace
Foul sin, I am vessel and deliverance
Due fate
Volition to sate

Honor thy father's memory
As if he never left us
For here he stands before me
Lone specter: night's conjuring shrewd
Upholding grim conjecture
By his own blood
Slain

Shroud not veracity
To shed a brother's blood so willingly
Crowned through one tragedy
Covetous fratricide auricularly
Have you no dignity?
Slander commitment incestuously
Thy name is frailty
Thy morals lost, twofold matrimony

A pariah born anew
I know what punishment is due
Waylaid, crass, and clandestine
I know what vile deeds have befallen
