Highborn kings of old
Trapped in foreign shells
Forced to comply
To laws not of their making
From far beyond the veil they came
And sentenced by their fate they remain
To a lifetime of submission
Infernal torrents rise within
To send into perdition
The subjects of their wrathful sin
To be conquered by the easily seduced
Dreadful ceremony unfolds
To be shamed before the eternal gods
Silent suffering no more-ah!
In submission disaffected
Forever they scorn defeat
Through fire resurrected
No longer their pride must bleed
Raging essence
Conceiled within
Released once more
Consumed by sin
Vitriolic bile corrodes integrity
Turning it into
Simulated grace without sincerity
Like needles to the eyes
Shards of fractured light
Penetrate the inner sanctum
Defiling perpetually standing
Monuments of eternal wisdom
Hear the testimony of the arcane
Silenced by decades of servitude
Ancient realms disintegrated
Still former might stands consecrated
Brilliant crowns now torn asunder
Sacred temples forever plundered
never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
