Graveland |
Mankind — proud conqueror and king |
Swings its flag of primal glory to the winds |
Titans of the power-myth that failed |
Neanderthal hunger for the flesh of war so frail |
So weak, so hollow-minded |
The primat flock responds |
The jester race submits |
For each day of war is a failure for man |
Enslaved in her mordial genes |
Illusions bleed from their fetid cores |
Bent to their rotten extremes |
We, the plague of Terra Firma |
Nature’s grand and last mistake |
Plant the poisoned seed of cancer |
Set the severed fruits awake |
Burning like frozen relics |
In god’s archaic graveland |
So weak, so hollow-minded |
The primat flock responds |
The jester race submits |
For each day of war is a failure for man |
Enslaved in her mordial genes |
Illusions bleed from their fetid cores |
Bent to their rotten extremes |
Burn the visionaire |
Kill the ideologies |
Mankind must die |
The doves and the angels return to their graves |
With flames on their pestilent wings |
While mushroom-clouds haunt their virginwhite skies |
To rape their utopian dreams |
For each day of war is a failure for man |
Enslaved in her mordial genes |
Illusions bleed from their fetid cores |
Bent to their rotten extremes |
Living the last days of evolution’s end |
From the nest of humanity |
The graveland vultures rend |
