Blood of Nessus Lyrics


Shattered and broken

Amongst my kind, no more

A true paragon

Journey through the light and dark

Suffer the wrath of Neptune

Again and again

His trident pierces me

Where the hydra hadn't bled

Cleansed with fire

Withering in agonizing pain

The final labour

There upon the shoulders of Atlas, I stood

My strength was great

To those I loved, so cruel

Grant me deliverance

Let me rest in peace

Forgive my crimes dear father

But not as others forgave me

Cleansed with fire

Withering in agonizing pain

The final labour

Cloak of fire tethered to my skin

The centaur torments me

Abandoned

Betrayed

Left to die

Reverence

Tremble before the might of Hades

Purify me Nessus

Scorch me with your vengeance

Underworld awaits

Burn our souls to cinder
