Hunted
09:33
|

Concealed on approach, compelled by the scent of fear
Undetected through ice and snow, guided by hunger
Query alerted, a choice to stand or flee
Taunted are the hunted, surrounded by death
Isolated are the weak, feeble attempts at escape
The taste of blood in the air, instinct of survival
Retreat and pursuit, the pack encircles
Imminent fatality, vicious onslaught
Teeth breach flesh, white snow turns red
Voracious predators, culmination of the hunt
A frenzied feast ensues, the pack devours

Out of the crypts, awaken
The souls have claimed, burning to life
Incantations grant us passage from our dark realm
A cult of shadows summons our power
The blackest of covens bleed in our name, awaken
The darkest of winter nights they convene
A conjuration requires a life, one that is pure
Bloodcurdling screams, a refusal, endless hours of pain
Innocent though they may be, sacrifice blood that we see
Light after lifetimes of darkness, life after ages of death
Conjuration, incantation
Light after lifetimes of darkness, life after ages of death
Incantation, conjuration
Innocent though they may be, sacrifice blood that we see
Your realm is ours to poison, your souls are ours to reap

Detriment

The dawn of man cast its shadow
Spreading darkness upon all of the earth
Rapidly growing population
Festering life, like fleas on a hound
Pestilence scouring the face of this planet
Sowing the seeds of ill intent
Despite warning of scholars
The ignorance of man propels us
Further down the bleakest of paths
From which there is no return
Diminishing hope for the future of our kind
Delusions of faith will cause our collapse
Belief of the masses formed by fabrications
Thought forced upon the common man
By the villain with the deepest pockets
Stripping your mind of independence
Buckling your knees till you bow to the law of control
Empires rise to an apex only to crumble
Mountains of life eviscerated and reduced to mere hills
A race that once took flight, now falling to our doom
Withering life, grasping to linger
Like cockroaches refusing to die
And now strife is upon us
Consuming our brethren
And now disease is within us
Withering our beloved

Inflict
09:01

Hailed as greatness by many, a monument to pride
Disgusting and perverse
The darkest of deeds performed by the mentally impoverished
Bow down and serve or be crushed and cast out
No voice for dissent, no fealty in doubt
Enslaved by those that seek to exploit
Mundane cycle, meaningless life
In pursuit of the almighty dollar
Righteous are the rich to trample over the poor
Destruction of the serene
For profit of the guiltless corporate whore
Your judgment day has come
Fatal consequences of your actions
Ruinous fate that you cannot escape
Repercussions for evil deeds
Withered planet not yet slain
Fear the aftermath
Legions of broken spirits, profit earned on broken backs
Suffering of the many for the wealth of the few
Desperation, pressure to earn, hands grinded to the bone
No purpose other than earning, enslaved by expectation
Shattered souls for them to reap
Bow down and serve or be crushed and cast out
No voice for dissent, no fealty in doubt
Planetary exploitation, mankind doomed by this host
This land we’ve raped and slaughtered
We are the prey of earth’s ghost
Ruled by false Gods

Collapse

Balance in the galaxy, eradication of the human plague
Poisoned soils yield disease, cleansing the earth of man
Dominant species destroyed, along the cycle of time
Repercussion by nature, flood, fire, famine
Decimation of contagious life, purging the world of its parasite
A fatal way of life, an omen bleeds the truth
A path to extinction, a ruinous past for which we must pay
Reckoning, suffering
The plight of this planet will soon be erased
The wrath of our nature will wipe us away
The end is upon us, condemned to our fate
Consumed by our greed, destroyed by our hate
The horsemen have come to fulfill the prophecy
The blackening sun, atonement for atrocities
A ravaging plague, a global massacre
The end of our age, descent into ruin
The rising tide will vanquish the foes of the earth
Into the throes of death

Ages of Ages

What was left of the forest, now scorched to the soil
Swelling oceans of toxin have flooded these lands
A nuclear wasteland after aeons of war,
barren of life, devoid of man
The ashes of fallen empires make fertile the soils of this land
Free from ages of oppression, flourishing in the absence of man
And from the end of the cycle, rebirth of this natural place
Reclaiming the wrongfully taken, freedom to thrive without risk
