The highway to hell is broad...

With my hair long and white, 

I entered dark woods

It was late night.

While wind howled

I took a step

Not knowing what waits me ahead.

You see, I trusted the Moon

Fearlessly I walked

So I couldn’t sense what will come soon.

Oh, what mystery forest keeps

I was confused and lost

Sudden coldness gave me creeps.

My eyes were blurry

My knees weak

And then I heard “Do not worry”

I turned around, thought it was a mistake

I saw no human

But an ugly red snake.

“There is no point to run

It will be quick

I fear no Sun -

Sun is a lie,

Just a big fraud,

We all die,

The highway to hell is broad”

Last words I heard were those

I felt sharp teeth

And how venom flows…

Where is the beginning, and where is the end

I must continue 

But I can barely stand.

Just like in a dream

Through madness I am floating

And I can not scream.

My voice is gone

Demons are here

I am not alone.

They ripped out my face – it was a mask

Grabbed my hair – once long and white

Now is short and black.

Moon became red

Flowers are rotting

There is only dread.

Sun is a lie,

Just a big fraud,

We all die,

The highway to hell is broad.
