lyrics

Under my wing, my darkened wing
You'll find shelter where scavengers sing
A dream of life eternal, promises I'll bring

Out of the cold, we speak of riches untold
A thinly-veiled threat just under surfaces sold
My kingdom is yours, all you behold

Worship me!
The mirror reflects what you'll refuse to see
Fear me!
The absolute hypocrisy

Beware the darkness below, black seeds they sow
Upon you lavish gifts they'll bestow
They appear as divine but I assure you they are foe

I'll offer you a choice, but never stray from the path
Or suffer the everlasting breadth of my wrath
Into eternal flames you'll be cast

It's so black and white
Yet unclear as the fog of night
Clouding my judgment with fear of the light

It's all so black and white
Fear of the light

Under my wing, my darkened wing
You'll find shelter where scavengers sing
A dream of life eternal, promises I will bring

Everything chaos and nothing is true
When god is the devil, the devil is you
The fear of the light, no salvation for fools

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
