Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Strychnos, ancient one, fading from the light
Fight the simian sickness with all your might
Sentient scourge, heedless in its quest
Left to wither, a forsaken crest
It stands in desolate haze
Once proud, now withered in humanity's blaze
Its branches gnarled, its leaves turned to dust
As the two-legged plague grinds it to rust
[Chorus]
Strychnos, oh, ancient one
(Strychnos, oh, ancient one)
Strychnos, oh, ancient one
(Strychnos, oh, ancient one)
[Verse 2]
Strychnos, ancient one, fading from the light
Fight the simian sickness with all your might
Sentient scourge, heedless in its quest
Left to wither, a forsaken crest
Once revered, now forgotten and scorned
By the hands of man, its fate is mourned
The poison within, now a fading spark
As humanity's touch leaves its mark
[Chorus]
Strychnos, oh, ancient one
(Strychnos, oh, ancient one)
Strychnos, oh, ancient one
(Strychnos, oh, ancient one)
[Verse 3]
Strychnos, ancient one, fading from the light
Fight the simian sickness with all your might
Sentient scourge, heedless in its quest
Left to wither, a forsaken crest
[Instrumental]
Forgotten whispers of a world in bloom
Now drowned in the shadow of humanity's doom
The earth's lament, a silent plea
As Strychnos fades into eternity
[Instrumental]
In the twilight's embrace, Strychnos weeps
For a world that slumbers as it slowly sleeps
Gone is the glory, the splendor of yore
As humanity's touch stains forevermore
[Chorus]
Strychnos, oh, ancient one
(Strychnos, oh, ancient one)
Strychnos, oh, ancient one
(Strychnos, oh, ancient one)
Strychnos, oh, ancient one
(Strychnos, oh, ancient one)
Strychnos, oh, ancient one
(Strychnos, oh, ancient one)
