The Sweetest Of Tyrants - Just for you

He smiled with that dark grin of his and said,"I thought you were gonna stay, all the time with me. As I fell all the way down, broke through the atmosphere, my eyes, hair, and wings all turned pitch black.
But you found me first, I read your lips, and we were one. Oh the sweetest of the nights, we danced along the graveyards, cried out to the moon and made the dead rise once again.
But when I awoke that morning, with an empty space next to me, I cried so hard.
Thats when the nightmares began, along with night sweats and screams, begging me to come back home.
But I wont, I've seen His ways, His might, His glory.
I searched and searched, found nothing but ashes, and my heart turned to stone, once more.
So I roamed the earth for decades, looking for distractions.
Made it across the Atlantic, to the city made of water, did cocaine and heroin with the towns assassin, oh the story's he told, gave me chills.
Traveled east some more, rode along the dessert slaying all who cursed His name.
Found a village who was dying of thirst. Made a well deep enough, so deep I wish you were here, I would have loved to push you in, seen you fall, all the way just like I did.
My nights on this earth seemed endless, an endless abyss. Once again God cried out my name, gave way to tsunamis, killing innocent souls, I cried so hard.
So I rode with my sword of Damocles, and took this rock for my own, wore armor made of black gold, and the shield of Achilles. Took them all from You.
Here I am, I conquered them all! The nations fell over me, broke them all to their knees, the human race.
I conquered them all! I made them bow,eat right of the ground.
I made them all bow, bow down, bow just for you.
Just for you."
