Perdition Winds - Cult of Kain Lyrics


CULT OF KAIN

Bellum omnium contra omnes / Brother against brother

Drown your sword into his flesh

See him kick and squirm / Last dance before death

Defy consolation / Degenerate illusory deception  / Blade dripping the wine of life...

Ride of the tyrants / murderous siege

Prepare the gallows / Hang the futile breed

(See their macabre dance at the end of the rope)

Chorus of cracking bones

There is no peace / (There is) no redemption

Eyes are always watching / Crushed are their shrines of solace

No haven for refuge / Purge the flesh...

Purge their world with fire

Behold scorched ruins of their temple

Mass grave of the pious

After the cleansing hear only

the (choir of) locusts in the night

Beneath our feet, trampled bones of flawed men...

Yet there will be more lives to harvest

...And The breed of Abel is consumed by hideous silent fear

Rotten and emaciated corpses fill these pits, emit the scorn of the LORD. For he loves holocausts...

Blood is the key... No fear, no control

... And Hell followed in our footsteps

Ostendo primo conditionem hominum extra societatem civilem (quam conditionem appellare liceat statum naturae) aliam non esse quam bellum omnium contra omnes; atque in eo bello jus esse omnibus in omnia.
