Embers of the Pyre

Emissaries
Blinded by the light
Relics of a faith we tried to fight
Fallen victims, lords of holy wars
From shattered vessels, staking claims on blooded shores

Preaching peace, citing phrase from sacred text
Capitulate, or your families will be next
To burn
Ash from the stakes, blotting out the sun

Their promise hollow
The nameless whores, they will be damned
The soulless follow
Charred, blistering lungs, in fluid drown

Embers of the funeral pyres burn, rising ash, blotting out the sun
Charred bodies will fall as rain, revel in our pain

Heretics
Whose gods ignore their plight
Ravens watch the masses take their flight
Elders rise, freed from earthen tombs
Soils damped by the life blood from our wounds

Iconoclasts
Men of rule and law
Greed, perdition, it's all that we abhor
Now fall
Preaching peace, but all you've brought is war
Their promise hollow
The nameless whores, they will be damned
The soulless follow
Charred, blistering lungs, in fluid drown

Their promise hollow
The nameless whores, they will be damned
The soulless follow
Charred, blistering lungs, in fluid drown
