Like Carrion Birds

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
