Once Was God Lyrics


Conquered at the gateways of light

Enslaved in the heavens

Shadows taking over the skies

With infinite malevolence

Feathers of the glorious days are scorched

His kingdom is gone

The sun that once protected now hides

The moon that was the beacon now starves

Nameless were the jaws that fed on him

Starless were the skies to witness

Once was God and now is just a corpse

Swollen and forgotten under the sun

Falling bone to bone, flesh and teeth

The sermons will be silenced

The offerings will spoil

The purge of Gods has begun

Worthless are temples of light

Empty are their altars

Our hunt shall be glorious

Labyrinth of pestilent walls

Built upon their sorrows and sulfur

Our hunt shall be glorious

The plains will be graveyards

The lament will last for aeons

The angels will mourn their God

And fear will take them home

In silence
