Lyrics

Entranced by the mists of disease We rest our eyes upon the Monarch The apparent true claimant of the crown Sowing grains of comprehension That an unworthy heir is to reign beyond the grave - A possible tale forgotten and buried? A long lost wisdom of treachery? A tablet ripped from our prophecy? ...and in dismissive awe we cross the ragged floor Vile visions glare in the sooted flare from torch after torch Past fields of futile dreams went our voyage to seek The wreath of wither and to reap the seeds of filth Rumours led us hither but all we glean Are visions of tongues on skin, in this moulted depiction of sin Doors open and heavy shadows are cast upon our figures As we adhere to the alluring hands of The Great Depressor We behold the crown and our ignorance fades In the glistening reflection of a lost sunray No lies fool our eyes as they gaze upon The Great Devourer - The true lion of our sun! The volatile flicker drowns in the shade Encapsuled in a jewel the sun's lost ray fades Down, our Monarch leads the way Another set of slanting corridors coil behind the gate Doors etched by panicked nails, in vain! For there's no surpassing the ways of fate ...and we are led past a blown torch Into a chamber with sooted, scorched floors Stained by deeds unknown Rows of catafalques Shackles Walls hollowed A reek of womb Our intentions of cleansing put us in debt to oblivion Mistaken for wisdom to own ...and in dismissive awe we cross the ragged floor Vile visions shared with The Depraved Heir As fuel for the engorged entities of fleshrot A journey into tragedy To pollute the futile breeding of life Life is futile Always we would seek the meaning, in vain For life was futile Vile visions will be our last As life stays futile we'll wither in infinite nihility
