lyrics

The madness festers, more potent than ever before
Ancestors, those I once adored, bear witness to their sons
The blasphemies I beheld; the soil in which I dwell
The cradle burns as tinder to this hell and still they are blind to what they have done

Once my fecundity was wisdom
But soon only tears filled my glade
Serenity no longer binds me
I've sprouted a cancer of blades

Too long I have slept, dreaming of better days
Too long I have wept, while the world fell to decay
The blasphemies I behold; false gods poised to consume
An ocean of frozen souls; an eldritch doom

Once my fecundity was wisdom
But soon only tears filled my glade
Serenity no longer binds me
I've sprouted a cancer of blades

The earth pines for a panacea to its misery
All mortals must perish before the old ones come to be

This is your fate
This is your fate
This is your fate
This is your fate
This is your fate
This is your fate
This is your fate
