Dominion
02:09
|
|||
They came like jackals in the night
With chains dangling just out of reach
The trap is sprung
We are consumed
Reigns shackling nations circle their fingers
Our lifeblood a commodity
The trap is sprung
We are consumed

Malefaction
01:25
|
|||
Sons and daughters scattered like shrapnel
Mothers and fathers bearing their caskets
Bodies stitched tight, draped with a veil
Yolks of fear bearing down
Sowing seeds of control in rivers of blood
Spreading themselves thin an undone
Everything wasted, crushed underfoot
With their fangs gorging our flesh
Picking their teeth with our bones
Sowing seeds of control in rivers of blood
Rotting blinded as the vultures feed
Millions devoured in a sea of greed

Bastille
02:00
|
|||
Bloodstained sand
Wading through fields of corpses
Fire spewed into the sky
Scorch the ground to weed out the rats
Vengeance sent from the swine
Trading one bed of flames for another
Their heads in bags, marked with a number
Beaten, tortured, bloodied and bruised
Left to starve, left to rot
At the hands of ignorant men

Breach
00:51
|
|||
Stand and cast the stones clenched in our fists
Bury them beneath an ocean of bricks
Ancient, bitter lips spreading fear
Love shackled by bigotry
Hiding behind the laws of dead men
Cowards
Cast aside and banished by puppets
Hands from above twisting their strings
Stand and cast the stones clenched in our fists
Bury them beneath an ocean of bricks
Fracture their fingers, shatter their grip

Prelate
01:56
|
|||
Hands of evil crawl the skin of a child
Monsters commune inside a citadel of white
Preying upon the young and the meek
Shepherds spreading contagion among the sheep
A serpent with the tongue of a saint dripping with the spoils of the lamb
Thousands ruined by the hands of the holy behind closed doors
There is no end foul enough for their kind
Putrid
Bastards
Scum
Death would be too sweet an embrace
I would cherish all of their screams
I would wear their blood like a badge
|

Ruin
02:24
|
|||
Drink the rivers dry
Drain every drop
Leave nothing left but dust
A swarm, a plague on the land
Devouring all in its path
It's nailed into your head
Lessons from culture's lips
Poison the ground
Ruin the air
Leave this world a useless husk
A swarm, a plague on the land
Devouring all in its path
It's nailed into your head
Lessons from culture's lips
The end draws near
We will collapse
On the corpse of this world
Everything will rot
There will be nothing left
You've brought this on yourselves
You've brought this on us all
