Given the places to die, this would be fit for a king
When the stakes and the danger are high
What will morning bring?
From the depths of the chasm
Crawls an army of demons
Fat on feasts of pure evil
Inescapable
Forced in the service of light, driven by hubris enflamed
Seek out the solace of might
Declare your name
Ever-changing the weapon
I brandish with venom
My foul heart a spearhead
Inescapable
Embrace the apathy
Give yourself to the feelings of cold
Running is meaningless
From this punishment terrible
Hail your insanity
Call the cant of the saviors of old
Make room for emptiness
And then rule from the pit below
What is depravity?
Depths only few can behold
Calloused in spirit
Are degenerates brave and bold
Son of cacophony
Daughter of chaos and code
Emerge from your grottoes
The passion’s yours to withhold
Live in carnality
Go the way of the locust and toad
And with each admission
Your dominion grows thousand-fold
Twisted morality
Must not alter your futures untold
Nothing is set in stone
For your cursed and wretched soul
