Cometh the Hour Lyrics

Album: Silence

Cometh the hour

Tangled in flame

Thy son’s blood is spilled

To shatter thy name

Oh cruel, wrathful ghost

That bathes in his cries

The lower you fall

The higher we rise

In thy halls where life will die

None there to be found

Place absent of light

Place absent of sound

And all is fulfilled

As was prophesized

The lower you fall

The higher we rise

Life born in the void

Unspoiled by disease

Unleashed upon the flock

Brought down to its knees

To shatter, cast shadow

Like wolves on the path of the lamb

Cast shadow

Like wolves on the path of the lamb

I was there in the beginning

I will be there in the end

You were cast here from my womb

You will die now by my hand

You’ll shatter in the shadow

I will do what it takes

You’ll shatter in the shadow

I'll burn down this nest of snakes

We are the great earthly gods floating in blood and piss

Kings and conquerors married to their own mortality
