lyrics

Death Relic

Monument of ruin
Apparatus of dissent and plague
Relic of dissolution
Mechanism of hate and pain

Pursued for centuries
Desolate in the thread of time
Eclipsed in memory
Yet easy to find

Where the pendulum swings
Death is sure to follow
We are rot
We are hollow

When the vulture sings
There will be no tomorrow
We are naught
We are sorrow

Embracing night as quiet rides the tide
Intoxicating as the light subsides

The ancient idol pries into their eyes
Swaying silently from side to side

Eyes fixated on the archaic mark of eternal rest
I pray that the day will end in death
I have waited just to say this with my final breath
Take me now into the vulture’s nest

When they find their mark
Let the arms take their harvest
When the sky goes dark
Let the swarm take the body
