Nineveh (I)

I've been told of a place that's decaying
So far gone no one can save it
Repentance is past due
It is known that they will die
Nothing to do but stay away from that damned place

Destruction
Destruction to rain down
This is where it ends
A city of unrighteousness
A place of depravity

There rests the center of the civilized world
The feats of man all collected there
While disregarding the origins of their greatness
They pushed further into violence and wickedness

Destruction
Destruction to rain down
This is where it ends
A city of unrighteousness
A place of self-absorption
A place of depravity

Arrogance and self-centeredness
Push them further from the light
Ruination is the assumed resolution
The first empire will fall

Destruction
Destruction to rain down
This is where it ends
A city of unrighteousness
Destruction
Destruction to rain down
This is where it ends
A place of depravity
Destruction
Destruction
To a place of evil
