RULER repost my apocalyptic Miss American Pie prose

The Sounds of Saturn

Play this vid first for 20 seconds

then hit this vid

and play together

for best effect. Wow

Gregorian Chant...

Ruler

Dry leaves sang

And birds came tumbling down

And somewhere a crowd paid

To see the tears of a clown.

To spite the time

A clock refused to chime the hour

But beat as a broken heart

There in the tower.

Somewhere an angel frowned a saddened frown

And rain fell up instead of falling down

Seasons reversed and snow fell in July

And jolly folk that laughed began to cry.

A mother's love turned into hostility

A baby's wail became a silent plea

The world turned upside down and drowned itself

And darkness descended down when sunshine left.

Flowers burst into sprays of weeds and thorns

As night destroyed the coming of the morn

People sang with weapons in their hands

And with deadened eyes, disposed their fellow man.

No laughter rang from happy lips again

As everyone embraced the reign of sin

No mother's son returned from gore of war

And in the land there was no peace....no more.

The love of life went back from whence it came

And minds of men went empty and insane

Machines of death rolled, grinding godless gears

And silenced all the children's hopeful tears.

Oceans full of blood gave forth no life

No father loved his children nor man, his wife

But all, they ran to hillside and to cave

To save themselves but no help came to save.

No air, no food, no water left to drink

No love to feel and no thoughts left to think

No hope to calm the fears that rampant ran

And none to save the rotten race of man.

The bombs, they burst in clouds of man made glory

But no song writer lived to tell the story

The puppets ran the world with master's strings

And won it all but then lost everything.

Kings in crowns and palaces of gold

Exchanged these things and more things for their souls

And never once believed that it would end

But be renewed in splendor once again.

They sacrificed their useless little sheep

And took away their minds there in their sleep

They gave away the precious gifts they held

In secret, rang, but no one heard the bell.

The man who came from Heaven ran away

He came to Earth but said He couldn't stay

He "saved" a few but left them to their fates

And hid Himself behind those pearly gates.

And who am I to tell these things to you?

The only one who tells you what is true!

The Shining One who lives forever more

Is standing even now outside your door.

What happened to the world of yesterday?

What happened to the grace that came your way?

What happened to the love and gaiety?

Hell has come to earth....because of me.

You see, I changed the fate of all mankind

I took that god's creation and made it mine

I killed the unborn dreams that men all shared

The hope they gave to me...as if I cared.

I reign this Earth and it is mine to kill

No "Savior" came and no "savior" ever will

Take back from me the world on which I rule

And anyone who believes that is a fool!

For I am Lucifer, Bright and Morning Star

And I am King of all, both near and far

These kings of men have floundered in their tasks

And failed me in the tiny things I asked.

And even now, they burn in flame and sea

And never will they share a throne with me

But what is that to me, the King of all?

Never again I swear, will I be made to fall.

At Heaven's gate, they watch in humbled fear

To see destruction's glory I wreak here

My fires ascend to Paradise's door

No Holy Ones will visit anymore.

The Earth is mine to do with as I see fit

And I will crush it down and trample it

No man shall ever dare to rebuke Me

In blindness do they crawl, no more to see.

Six thousand years I have awaited now

So patiently to reign and show "Him" how

How I am God and He is just a lamb

And He will never be the Lion I Am.

But wait! What is that light that fills my eyes?

My army melts, their mouths screaming "You lied!"

That white horse running that should have been my own

And on it's back, that Man, that Holy One!

I will not bow! I will not bow! I will not bend!

To You who died on that cross for their sin

I will not bow before You, Son of Man

I'm not one of your servants made of sand.

I will not break, my pride is much too strong

And though I bow, I will not bow for long

And though in chains of darkness do I sit

I will not forever wait inside this pit.

I will not. I will not! I will not beg

For mercy from You. I will drain the dregs

Of humankind there at that Age's end

And I will be their Ruler once again.
