[Lyrics: LoSicco '98]
|
|
:As giant wings, fashioned from the flesh of the fallen,
|
exerted their will to secure beast and rider's course in twilight's sky
|
so the once placid night was disturbed.
|
In legion they came with only instinct as guide spurred ever forward
|
by an all-consuming hunger.
|
A hunger so old that the truth in its origin was forgot,
|
and so it came to pass:
|
|
In a land far, far from the source, far from the light
|
Order decayed, decay wore away the immortal pride
|
Realize the nature deprived
|
Wanting the system has failed
|
Willful the inner self
|
Guiding where free flows the life
|
In a scene, already seen, a pact is made
|
[And]</i> Gathering men, yet not wholly men, a break is made
|
Fledglings at a time they were with few
|
Centuries between and likewise treated in place
|
But now in mass exodus the willful
|
Depart leaving the Noachian ways to rot
|
The ancient fools were left to rot!
|
A world with many fruits yet bared and many more in prime
|
To pull apart the pulpy flesh and sip from what's inside
|
In ecstasy the warmth within is felt by sallow hands
|
Which mold an all to willing flesh entranced by feral eyes
|
Journey's end in lands once verboten,
|
By Crimson Might the precept was broken
|
From the skies yet more descend and swoop upon the tithe
|
For as Lords and Ladies this must surely be their prize
|
A glint of Mistress in their blades before they find their mark
|
And in the wake of frenzy's end the sated now depart
|
Silhouettes on ancient walls await the coming of nightfall
|
where shadows pale as one
|
As one blade with many wills with ceremonies end the nature reveals
|
The need for the piercing blows - an opiate to the night
|
By the Scarlet Lust Within the new found world will fall
|
In a land far, far from the source, far from the light
|
Order decayed, decay wore away the immortal pride
|
Greener pastures overcome by foul decay
|
The strongest first to fall with the weakest easily swayed
|
With a scarlet gauntlet I rule by might that shall never be tethered
|
In the Black & Crimson Glory I exist forever
|
