Adversarial - Thralls lyrics
Your rating:
The chapel spire reluctant to fade stands against the fall of the sun Built on the ashes of the dawn of man rising erect on the worlds funeral The earth all around drenched and blackened by blood Turning the planet into a graveyard It's angelic halo consumed by the dark for it's not but a glow of embers so bright It will all fade away with the coming of night! And the weeping and moaning of them "saved" by the light is carried by bitter winds into dusk (A wind) of sighs and regrets, of inhibitions and sins; tearing and vicious as it howls with scorn To all who has wilfully stood in it's way: disciples to a burden of penance and shame When the ground underneath them is taken away they sway to the chant of these merciless winds ... their true burden is not knowing what they are at all! THRALLS! Scarcely hidden stories, behind - many names and masks A murmur of prayers - to - man's fucking fairy tales Creation and life twisted - to preferences and creeds For with all of the masks and faces of gods The suns rises and sets To the fleeting glazed views of men THRALLS! Altars and pedestals built on - on loneliness and defeat Grow on a heaving soil of – of humans clawing at their feet Holding up icons representing their utter decay Obscene vanity and fucking greed on display Shame rings inside the hearts of man... ... Overlooking from the throne of a god among insects And held high in the midst of it all, the maze of Deception Teeming and endless corridors flaunt the echoed moans The labyrinth of mirrors, whose walls reflect (all) sorrows and fears Entrapping every victim, the promised land revealed!
