lyrics

Silence! Approaching storm,
breaks! crimson air choking me
as death awakes
Witness! My brothers die
Pain! filling me, changing me
mindless rage

No control, mind is shaking,
hated men, before me quaking,
pathetic lives, mine for taking,
by my hand i watch them breaking!

Shackles forged in blood
by our deadly revelry
what fools we have become
thinking we were free
drink deep this cup of hate
paths no longer seen
mere echoes in the wind
all will cease to be

Hate, burning soul ablaze
suffocating, all consuming
cry of rage
Kill! my sacrifice this day
blood for altars raised to nothing
endless pain

No control mind is screaming
cannot sleep, see them bleeding
frenzied wrath, no more feeling
between my teeth I hear them weeping

Shackles forged in blood
by our deadly revelry
what fools we have become
thinking we were free
drink deep this cup of hate
paths no longer seen
mere echoes in the wind
all will cease to be

Why is this, for which we fought?
All for nothing, all for naught?
Cruel fate, stark beauty
so i summon nihility

Why is this, for which we fought?
All for nothing, soon forgot?
Cruel fate, dead beauty,
take my soul and set me free

Why is this for which we fought,
all for nothing, all for naught,
cruel fate embraces me
take my soul nihility!
