Lyrics Granted Indulgence - Abhorrent Decimation

Granted Indulgence

To the verge of the forest dark and deep
A sparkle of light, so beautiful a sight
Beneath the oak, florins fair and bright
«In search of death, a treasure we have found
Our happening a blessing and a curse rolled into one
Our prayers are answered, the voiceless god doth act
For decades I have begged him to release me from the grips of total poverty»
«This is our granted indulgence»
«Lightly it comes, so we will spend»
But each of them so ignorant to the horror that impends
So consumed with gluttony, the three begin to gorge
Forgetting soon the memory of the brotherhood they had forged
«In that moment, my lust for life became real»
Locked in greed’s eternal embrace
Amongst the evergreen, away from the eyes of the world
Ready to commit complete and utter sin
To lay upon, the boundless sea of gold
«A single coin performs to me a rhapsody»
Each note a blessing, a symbol of pure wealth
Guided by imperative that was beyond control and comprehension
«This is our granted indulgence»
«Lightly it comes, so we will spend»
But each of them so ignorant to the horror that impends
So consumed with gluttony, the three begin to gorge
Forgetting soon the memory of the brotherhood they had forged
«Brethren, take heed of what I say»
«Journey deep in oceans of gold and drown with me»
«This treasure, a fortune given unto us
Does it make you think?
Why today should we have so fair a grace?»
Awakening.
Peasant to king
«This is our granted indulgence»
