Down from the Wound

Hypocritical Repentance

A trickster, disseminating lies full of deceit
Showing benevolence in the face of the masses
A clever disguise...

Fine clothes and refined actions
A gentleman to the eyes of those he fools, because behind the sheep's clothing stands the wolf

Going to church, mingling with other worshippers
Kneeling and bowing, closing his eyes and pretending to ask for forgiveness for the he has done

Deep in prayer for all to see, but in the depths of his festering soul he's contemplating the evil he means to do

His goal is to let all the people see that he is a righteous man
To mask his true and diabolical colors

After the feigned prayer comes the baptism in water
Led by the high priest in prayer, the body is submerged and is drawn up signifying the start of a new life

But the wicked persona surfaces once again
Like a putrid corpse that arises from the grave and is again ready to wreak havoc
This holy and righteous man leaves his temple eager to commit his evil
