Here's my newest completed work. There's some pretty heavy subject material, so I put it in spoiler tags.

Secret Truth
The sacred name we hold so high
Taboo except to satisfy the rest
Because they all believe we're sanctified
From dust to dust and ash to ash
The double-cross is what we worship
Advertising only three in one
We lose ourselves because they take it for granted
We masquerade that we're below our master
But who maintains the mask behind closed doors?
Who among us still believes we'll never ask for more?
Who among us still believes we're loved?
Who would say that books and prayers give anyone enough?
The holy water we all drink
Like poison that we'd not consume
The bread we say is carcass of a king
We vultures now are coming soon
The foreign words we spit at will
Or just to appease the crowds
The sacrifice we make and take just like a pill
We dedicate to beings in the clouds
Or even just their minds
For who among us still believes in God
When governments would choke the world for speaking of his name
When politicians black it out with their ungodly laws?
We bury faith so deep inside
The tomb whose stone won't roll away
Our hearts and souls will make no motion
Deny three times the one they hold so dear
And Nero's cross we worship
The one shard of glass in a mound of diamonds
We have found it; we exalt it
And throw our souls into the fiery sea
As long as I've known this to be true, it has been
Hiding our identities in cloaks of shadow
The ship displaying but the white flag
Will soon be stained with red of war
And over and over again
The truly sanctified are overwhelmed
By hordes of those infected with disease
They're swarmed with hate
Surrounded by greed and lust and rape
Their innocence is threatened from within
And soon enough they'll realize
That they're the only ones
Who keep their faces pointed toward the sun
We hold the secret deep inside
We're running out of precious time
Eventually we'll find out that we're too late and die out
Because we failed to see the simple truth
I'd love to hear your thought on it.
