My Own Grave - Necrology lyrics

rate me

Cut out unwanted pieces, rebuild an age long lost<br />

Colossus to the heavens<br />

Block by block, bone upon bone<br />

Panem et circenses. Play for the dead as they rot<br />

<br />

Defiance strangled at birth, unquiet tongues cut out<br />

Unruly voices silenced, decapitation<br />

<br />

Worship a vengeful god, better be feared than loved<br />

All through majestic corridors, the new mourning dawns<br />

<br />

The untruth shall set you free upon the altars of deceit<br />

Blood for gold, fear and greed<br />

Ink for our necrology<br />

<br />

Rabid eyes burst open<br />

Rotted apparition of the god that never was<br />

Putrid vessels clogged by filth grafted into his heart<br />

In autopsy awoken<br />

<br />

The time has come to collect, to take an eye for an eye<br />

For soldiers marching to their death, cursing your name as they die<br />

Time heels the deepest wound and fades the gravest mistake<br />

To give the vicious ones eternal glory in death<br />

<br />

The untruth shall set you free upon the altars of deceit<br />

Blood for gold, fear and greed<br />

Ink for our necrology<br />

<br />

Eternal glory<br />

Eternal glory in death<br />

Devoured<br />

The lives we lead<br />

By our necrology
