lyrics

Perched on jagged cliffs,
Kerszh looms above the shades. Where in the mangroves,
Vermin slither through the glades.
Once the masters ruled us all.
Now they are breeders of an ill doctrine. We’re forced to act, decisive, clandestine.
We are stacking pyres
For a most noble cause.
We all have come together,
Yes, without these freaks the world will better.
The healing power: blood lies. Sweet whispers to raise the heat. Harken to the glorious sound!
To battle! Wither with me!
In the black of night,
We prepare the vulture’s feast.
Cut down the guards on my command. Unseen: the wave that sinks the land.
They use our skin for parchment, Young fat for secret potions. Rancid temple; burn the wisdom! High time to rush into oblivion.
We shall return to the sea, Stride down the old path Towards sunken graveyards.
We shall return to the sea, Recite this obituary
And live complacently.
In the black of night,
We prepare the vulture’s feast.
Cut down the guards on my command. Unseen: the wave that sinks the land.
To all who lurk and couch tonight, I light a greeting fire.
I count on you to flush the land.
A hidden wave at my command.
Alliance: dark and foreboding. Blood: the currency of power. Woe to those deserving! Gaze at the plunging breaker! I’m no minion.
I chase dominion.
In the black of night,
We prepare the vulture’s feast.
Cut down the guards on my command. Unseen: the wave that sinks the land.
To all who lurk and couch tonight, I light a greeting fire.
I count on you to flush the land.
A hidden wave at my command.
Lust for dominion. Raze the gates,
My assiduous minion!
Sweet whispers raise the heat but Cold is my blood.
