Premonition

Oh noble kings of the land
Crowned by wisdom passed down from the Son of Man
Your anointed yourselves
With such avarice, the world recoiled in abhorrence
Oh brave heroes of Yore
Your mighty arms reduced nations to gore
So find rest in your loss
For your sacrifice will indeed be forgotten
Now there's mold growing in our hearts
Our self-inflicted wounds no longer weep with blood
Let this house of ache
be torn asunder
Its foundation scattered
far and wide
Soon the mortar shells
will growl like thunder
The great void awaits,
in its darkness, we'll all abide
Oh meek prophets of old
Blessed by the hands that carried the Cross
With your forked tongues
You whispered the sweetest lies ever told
Fealty chocking the soul
Words turning brothers into enemies sworn
Yet against all the odds
Your faithful flock was left craving for answers
Now there's mold growing in our hearts
Our self-inflicted wounds no longer weep with blood
Let this house of ache
be torn asunder
Its foundation scattered
far and wide
Soon the mortar shells
will growl like thunder
The great void awaits,
in its darkness, we'll all abide
All that's left is scorn
All that's left is hope forlorn
All that's left is scorn
All that's left is hope... forlorn

Praise The End

As the last leaves fall from the Tree of Life
Firmament cracks pierced by the hail of fire
We rejoice at the end of this hopeless strife
Blunder of Eden witness the glory of your conquest!
Eternal skies watched your hubris grow
Forests gave way to great forts of iron
Azazel's teachings were truly learned
Plowshares made swords, grace draped in ire
No righteous path
No sacred purpose
No grand design
Nothing absolves us
No restitution
No turning back
It's always the darkest
Before it turns pitch black
The divine veil slips from begetter's face
Sunken eyes glare at the world bereft of solace
Crimson streams drum upon Heaven's gate
The celestial spheres weep with a mournful howl!
Your eager hands set Elysian fields ablaze
While your kind slandered the Heir of Darkness
Through countless years you traded blood for gain
Man-made terror reigned in the name of progress
No righteous path
No sacred purpose
No grand design
Nothing absolves us
No restitution
No turning back
It's always the darkest
Before it turns pitch black
Let's all rejoice (Let's all rejoice)
As the whole world (As the whole world)
Becomes a tomb (Becomes a tomb)
Within the ocean of stars
So let's all rejoice (Let's all rejoice)
As the whole world (As the whole world)
Becomes a tomb (Becomes a tomb)
Within the boundless ocean of stars
Lauda finem!
Lauda finem!
Lauda finem!
Lauda finem!

At last, the rays of the unholy light
Dispel the tribal bondage of mankind
The bitter star has made its fall
Through a lurid breach in Heaven's wall
Born of the serpent
A lineage unbroken
Fostered by wolves
A scion forespoken
Lord of the Air
Redeemer divine
Grant us your blessing
Return from exile
The burning skies... have lit your way...
The burning skies have lit your way
Through the ruin of mortal ambition
As the old world fades away
Your tragic struggle comes to fruition
The burning skies have lit your way
Through the age of heartache and sorrow
As the old world fades away
Your progeny hails a triumphant tomorrow
A lone tear rolls down the herald's face
When Redemer wraps him in a cold embrace
Let the true dark descend upon us all!
Let newfound discord crush our endless thrall!
Hallowed be thy safe return...
The burning skies... have lit your way...
The burning skies have lit your way
Through the ruin of mortal ambition
As the old world fades away
Your tragic struggle comes to fruition
The burning skies have lit your way
Through the age of heartache and sorrow
As the old world fades away
Your progeny hails a triumphant tomorrow

The Aeon

Do you finally feel the dread?
Settling deep within your jaded soul
Do you accept the judgment?
Will you let it take its heinous toll?
Every hearth
Every parent, youth,
and next of kin
Shall forever
bear the mark of anguish,
a gashing wound within
A grim baptism
A chilling prayer
Malignant presence
Fills the air
Two lustrous moons
Replace the Sun
This night eternal
Has now begun
Every hearth
Every beating heart
Shall forever bear the mark of love denied
Every tyrant
Every righteous martyr
All shall meet their end beneath the crimson tide
Was it truly worth it?
To chase greatness
and get dishonor in return?
To break the world
To raise a throne and watch it burn?
There will be
no forgiveness
No penance granted
No reprieve
Reject the reason
Reject the virtue
Reject the life
and all its gifts
A grim baptism
A chilling prayer
Malignant presence
Fills the air
Two lustrous moons
Replace the Sun
The endless night
Has now begun
You've shown no mercy
So you'll get none
For your delusions took the best of what we could become
Your arms shall be reforged
into your torture collars
The towers built on top of graves
shall fall
Contagion, famine, enmity
- great cataclysms shall follow
The flaming sepulcher
shall soon become your new abode
Every hearth
Every beating heart
Shall forever bear the mark of love denied
Every tyrant
Every righteous martyr
All shall meet their end beneath the crimson tide
