Abyss, the Destroyer Lyrics


Hunger drives the beast.

(The world aches with indifference.)

The wolf and the chariot in the sky

(A world of envy and decadence.)

Blood on the hands of the high priest.

(On its oblivious final days.)

Let it rain, let it fall

(Let the demons screech and crawl.)

Sköll unleashed awaits.

Mistress of the deep

Drag the carcass.

Lay the horses to sleep.

May your feet go faster

And your body be filled with strength.

My you feast on the flesh

Of your eternal prey

Sköll, unleash

Thy rage complete.

Ragnarök is upon us

Not by water but fire.

Treachery to spread mercy.

(Set your eyes on the sky.)

A fiery arrow from the abyss.

(A condemnation to unify.)

A burning planet, so otherworldly.

(A scorched land to glorify.)

Let it pour, let it fall.

(Let the weak screech and crawl.)

Sköll, unleash

Thy rage complete.

Set the Sun toward us

To cleanse us by fire.

Our end awaits.

We understand our fortune

Maybe liars, thieves and beggars

Rowing in shame

Maybe saviours, heaters and leaders

But all incomplete.

The course is set to free all our suffering
