Wise words sometimes feel like lies when they're heard...
I wanted to help the boy from the previous entry...
This is what I told him:
the hour is half empty
your stomach should be half full
your skin could be quite itchy after that scrubbing with steal wool
but the wool was never stolen
and time's only in your head
counting down the seconds until you?re finally dead
the first meeting's at the church
the second, at the hidden hill
you bring the sacrifice and I'll bring the suicide pill
wear only the essentials
leave your ID back at home
the Armageddon suit is made entirely of foam
memorize the words of ritual
cross your heart and hope to fly
near the end of our ceremony you should see something in the sky
they are coming here to save us
bringing peace, happiness and joy
we can only take one child and it better be a boy
in their world there is no money
so before the ship you mount
remember to transfer your savings into this numbered account
on earth you live in terror
a world of fear made by your mind
you once asked me why I cared for you, (I was only being kind)
I knew you needed something
I'm your saviour and your knight
the final act might be painful but don't put up a fight
once the act is over
they will bring you into their lives
remember in their world you get to have 3 wives
so now I bid you farewell
I have many more to save
now you'll finally taste the greener grass that I know you crave
