Lyrics Celestial Pestilence - Lord of War

Celestial Pestilence

As something had emerged from tenantless expanse
It became clear the cessation was identified
Yet how majestic was the sight
Attestant to rarefaction
Ineffectual planets lost
Obsessed I return to gaze
This adverse luster I praise
Galaxies diminish
Whole worlds are then turned into dust
From which they had been born
Boundless it consumes only to expand
A once empty void impregnated with its mass
Its approach salient from earth
In awe man stands in question
Is this beginning or end
We submit to empyrean onslaught
This world has been condemned
Yet as I watch this absolute chaos
Beauty lives despite voluminous loss
I cannot believe
Beauty lives despite voluminous loss
Our universe ravaged by stardust
Devoured in a cloud of visual euphoria
This glorious cloud enraptures me
Countless lives obliterated
In the celestial haze
We submit to the star born onslaught
Satisfied by it’s embrace
As everything falls away
My mind is somehow sane.
The ones I love are reduced to ash
Yet, I am still sane
The world crumbles apart and I am the last man on earth
I observe everything die as I observed the sky
Apathetic was the fall, as I was entranced by the lights
With a smile on my face, I feel my flesh waste away
With the last moments of my life, I think how funny this picture is
Mankind spent so much time pondering how the world would end
Do you think they ever thought that nobody would care
Did you ever think that it would end by celestial pestilence
Pestilence
