The Earth and the Smokeless Fire Lyrics


From winds of ancient flames one was born

Under the crushing desert sun

A ravenous deceptive soul

Jealous and hungry of infinite power

(Iblis)

Dervishes of fire, dancing across the dune sea

In night's darkest hours and feverish dreams

Traveling vast distances in a heartbeat, learning secrets untold

We are the sons and daughters of fire without smoke

The flaming heirs that came before never to kneel before clay men

Godlike amorphous entities subordinate to none

To inherit the shadow world

We of the earth and the smokeless fire

We appear in every shape, in any form

Bend the will, twist the promised word

Within the murk of eternal darkness

A second one born of soil

A petty soul with thirst for war

Since inception expanding his domain

Growing like a pandemonious cancer

Reaping fruits of the trees as the lives of their peers

We are the earth and the earth shall become us

Vehement plague upon defenseless life

We of the earth and the smokeless fire
