The divine falsehood

I stood in the sand from the mouth of the sea
And watched a serpent rise from its depths
Upon his horns rested ten crowns
As the discord of trumpets grew unnerving

Its perception giving an overruling
Mentality of authority and supremacy
All dwellers of earth shall pray
And worship this form from a single demon

Whose names are not written in ink or blood
In the Book of the Life of the Lamb
Shall be slain from the foundation
Of this declining and now decaying world
