Nystagmus - Altar of Decay Lyrics

Album: Mākutu

Death embodied

The landscape smeared with crimson

Cleansing fires

Have scorched the earth for centuries

Bloodforged doctrines

Invented to enslave the weak

Systemfeeders that slit the throat of liberty

Crippled by silence

Parading in the shadows of the tower of fear

Collapsed at the altar of decay

Generation drone: inherit the wasteland

Tied up in snake skeletons

As mis-shapen structures malign the horizon

(we're the) offspring of what we consume

A congregation of lifeless orphans

The knights of greed gather in the dark

Their heads adorned with barbed wire crowns

Empires of enterprise

Built upon bodies of the unspoken slain

Destroyed by a murderous circus

Of supernal orders in the black architraves

The knights of greed gather in the dark

Their heads adorned with barbed wire crowns
