Trident, Sword, and Scythe Lyrics

by Mahr

By trident, sword, and scythe

The head consumes the tail

Towers collapse in the fire’s light

Conflagration growing pale

Plastic diadems upon heaping ash

The giant’s hand turns the wheel

Bullets fly as the blades clash

Bone, blood, fire, and steel

Dying gods are laid to rest

As their magnificence fades

Golden means are long repressed

Pillars of fire cascade

Cascade upon the earth

Burning brighter than the sun

The sun is at its furthest point

No longer shining on us

A spoke on the wheel, eternal return

A golden dawn will rise

A seed is sown, the fire dies

Life is purified

The great king returns to the depths

The ocean swallows the sword

The sea silences the flame

By trident, sword, and scythe

Broken kingdoms crumble

By the pale king’s howling might

Idols cast down and trampled

A blazing crown is raised above

It’s jewels become the stars

And streak across the endless night

Into the spiral’s embrace

A new race awakens

From the ash upon the wind

With skin as pale as fire

Thundering across the void

As monoliths to the new era

Furious and beautiful

Fons of fire, blood, and steel

A bloodline of giants
