Lyrics

[00:32.822] War subsides
[00:34.831] Destruction of the humans and the demise of the divine
[00:36.828] Behold the flames
[00:38.826] The aftermath of battle mounds of bodies lie in charred remains
[00:44.827] I will erase remnants of the past destroyed
[00:48.579] I will remain
[00:50.076] Plant the seed inside my bloodline sustained
[00:53.072] Burn all the scriptures of their putrid lies
[00:58.274] It was not my will to have these peons deny
[01:02.767] This creation was intended to save our lives
[01:09.775] Drenched in the flames, the surface of the earth
[01:14.028] Crumbled structures, idols in our image will now be burned
[01:18.777] Now the demise, all life is now extinct
[01:23.271] Cleansing fire will annihilate the souls
[01:24.769] Of those who love or deny me
[01:38.026] The all consuming blaze will obliterate
[01:40.468] Scorching embers char the earth and will devastate
[01:42.463] Fragments of life now ash
[01:43.973] Shadows of existence is all that remains
[01:46.223] Withered and weak
[01:47.721] The chosen ones will be filled with the seed
[01:49.718] And planted deep below
[01:51.918] Inside the womb the demon spawn will grow
[01:56.669] His enemies will never know
[01:59.671] Cultivation and preservation of the human soul
[02:04.679] Their stories forever told
[02:07.675] The Ancients of Shattered thrones
[02:11.669]
[02:14.179]
[02:18.669]
[02:34.423] Writings on the walls, the explanation for the fall
[02:40.170] The beginning of time and the slaughter of their mortal thralls
[02:54.853] Unrepentant blasphemous slaves
[02:59.104] Encroaching into darkness, their lives will now be saved
[03:04.108] Spitting in the face of their martyr, their paths have been paved
[03:12.331]
[03:27.768]
[03:47.355] Forging generations of filth as black seeds beget
[03:54.354] Victory by corruption in a deity's silhouette
[04:00.356] Burned and forgotten
[04:01.854] The sacred dialect, scripture and chronicles shall be
[04:06.360] Abandoned by divinity
[04:08.613] Fabrications of life now lost for eternity
[04:14.105]
[04:18.111]
[04:23.103]
[05:19.861] The ancients of shattered thrones
[05:21.360] Left the burdens of withered remains
[05:23.357] And the stains of their blood flow
[05:25.354] Through the sewers of humanoid veins
[05:27.861] Monarchs of the dynasty have sown forbidden seed
[05:31.855] Lucid was the path to yield their souls into oblivion
