Chthonica |
We grew up full of boldness |
Unaware of our own ignorance |
We kept in mind our goal |
To live for something more |
But how were we to know |
That we are betrayed by our lords |
The ancient gods of chaos |
Persuaded them to sell us |
The lords are dull and greedy |
The gods are sly and perfidious |
And they deserve each other |
Sharing the feast of suffering |
Their toadies keep inspiring |
The shameful tale disarming |
We are the chosen ones |
Let’s turn our blood to dung |
It’s honorable they say |
This fate is best for mortals |
Prepare to give yourself |
To make the ground more fertile |
Chthonica… |
Chthonica… |
Enchained and sentenced |
I’m lying defenseless |
And gazing at the uncaring sky |
How proud should we be |
If our destiny is |
Eternal self-sacrifice |
The sky plays dead |
The stone turns red |
The ground will bring our daily bread |
Alliance with the ether |
Was gainless and dissolved |
The depths became our patron |
In trade for blood and souls |
So then began the new age |
Of fear and outrage |
The self-sustaining system |
Perverted pride of victims |
The deity of soil |
As ugly as amazing |
Is growing from below |
The hecatomb is rising |
Chthonica… |
Chthonica… |
Enchained and sentenced |
I’m lying defenseless |
And gazing at the uncaring sky |
How proud should we be |
If our destiny is |
Eternal self-sacrifice |
The sky plays dead |
The stone turns red |
The ground will bring our daily bread |
We grew up full of boldness |
Unaware of our own ignorance |
We kept in mind our goal |
To live for something more |
But how were we to know |
That we are betrayed by our lords |
The ancient gods of chaos |
Persuaded them to enslave us |
Enchained and sentenced |
I’m lying defenseless |
And gazing at the uncaring sky |
No grumble, no hope |
No way to elope |
And throughout is the eternal chthonica |
