Shatter the bonds
Under lunar eyes
Your wings the blades
Eviscerate the skies
Devour the silence
That chokes the air
The glass that shatters
from a single tear
Fervent
Blows from the hammer while
Servants
Gazed through the earth over
Seasons
Enrage the waters as
Reasons
Fade from your memories
The Visions remain
Burnt through your core
Searing agony
Of one thousand more
Above bloodied land
Under moonlight glow
See the horrors wrought
In the fires below
Mercies
Withheld upon high by this
Tyrant
Sycophants clamouring
Price paid
With blood and with gold was this
Flesh flayed
Butchered for vanity
Cut free
Pretence of innocence
Guilty, in
Court of the coldest sun
Judgement
Shipwrecked and dragged beneath
Sentenced
Condemned to deepest graves
Arise, now, arise, now
Through darkest moments
Through walls of loss
Under weight of grief
You are not yet lost
Through smoke of futures
Burning underfoot
Through the paths that stem
From this deepest root
You are not alone
In this endless storm
Become ascendant
Arise reborn
The revenant howl
The vengeance long
Justice returns
Six thousand strong
The debt to pay
In blood and bone
Now raze the idols
Shatter this throne
Cast from the cliffs
And fed to the deep
Their wretched bones
Now the earth may keep
Upon the pillars
Rising from the graves
Take your hallowed place
Above the churning waves
