O death, thou one eternal thing That takes all within thine arms Like plague lies in the core Like plague lies in the being Time flows in unbroken stream The seed of fallen souls exhale a rotten despondence Dwell in a finite line, Prays and spells scorched in flames Thou shall fade, thou shall perish Hope, faith, destroyed by hammer of void Vision of festering wounds And tortured flesh Distortion and abomination In life's altar, blood and despair - Perished in pain And all destructions bloody path The iron tongue fierce crushing - Black catharsis Book of prophesies enslaved to flame A burning shrouds, A vengeance upward fire Made every cloud a reddish pyre In death's kingdom kneel in the shadow Descent to an infinite curse Hope into ashes, dust and ruins Hope into ashes, dust and ruins Eternal whispers glooms The birth and death Tormented echoed voices Like a poisonous thorn Implosion into nothingness, Blessings melt in graves Faded ruined spirits Faded ruined gods The world, the flesh, the shadow In the plains of silence Scorned in timeless fall
