Like Carrion Birds Songtext

von Abigail Williams

The place holds within its walls
A profane legacy it's sickening my soul
A monument to darker ages
Behold 2000 years
We burn the memory

It was such a beautiful site
The flames wrought tears from my eyes
To the beating of my dreadful hearse
Peering into the dark
To the dungeons of her hope

Thine is the portion of my flesh
Will you wreak your sorrow on me forevermore
On this somber starless night
You've wandered from the safety
Of thy nightly shores

From the cold tomb's heart
The spectres washes away
We overturn the graves of gods
Who told lies

I feel as if time has fallen
Deathly, still
My Passions, my sorrows
Merge memories of a life past
But i've come too far
To just walk away
From my empire the ashes
From the fire still litter
The earth in my wake
An infinite sadness
Towards finite endings
Blessings from above
Curses to the above
