Grave Emperor Lyrics

by Rale

Dancing chained together on the spine of this cursed Earth

(No step to keep in time)

Set as silhouettes against the Sun burning out of the horizon and into oblivion

Shambling, slowly, in grim procession, driven by the primal urge

(No meaning to be discerned)

Gaining past the failing light, into dark of night, into the void from which we all sprang forth

Pushing back against the black stagnant outside

This substance slipping through our fingers

Bodies trapped in the interstices

Glories drown in its rot

All your memories that deceive

And the stories you believe

Conquerors and their slaves

They all dig the same graves

Felled by life itself

Extinguished cells

The dread of a godless night

The pain of singular existence

The demon of silence and the fear that it brings

The threat of decomposition

Like siblings bound together

As tinder to the fire

Devoured by the wrathful mouth

As the Grave Emperor pushes down

Grave Emperor - Victorious

Grave Emperor - We submit, we submit

Grave Emperor - It is decreed

Grave Emperor - On our knees, on our knees

Like siblings bound together

As tinder to the fire

Devoured by the wrathful mouth

As the Grave Emperor pushes down,

Pushes down

It bows us down

It bows us down

It bows us down
