Lyrics Putrid Fairytale - Slugdge

Putrid Fairytale

Corrupt ignobility adorned in pilfered gold
Conceived in sewage by insipid lords of old
Inbred degenerates languish in squalid halls
Impotent and superfluous, unable to uphold
The basic tennets of the creed
Usurpers vie to supersede
A tired waning hegemony, long bereft of majesty
Self-righteous justiciars desire to purify
A world of lies, that seeks to purge the earth and sky
Licentious seditionists;
gorge as your planet burns
From slime they came, and into slime they shall return
Praise the primordial poison pools that gave us form
To defy his decree, they dare to bite the hand that feeds
The custodians have become the abuser
Ignorant beings with arrogant ideas
They loose a hail of arrows
That scorch the eyes of all who gaze
But it won’t save them from the hell that waits
Mythologised transcendence, a paradise is lost
No deliverance from the dire cost
They’ve chosen the form of the destructor
More of slime than blood
Their planet torn asunder by plutonium
Mercury rising, the surface scorched
They descend like rats into the bowels of earth
Digging like roaches through a mire
Of their own self indulgence
Caught in a web of fate
Too bloodless to escape
No god can save you now
For they have no power here
Within these ashen crypts
Of suffering and despair
The flame ignited in its heart
A chain reaction tearing apart
Reaching the critical mass
The weapon of their futile vengeance
The eye, ablaze with radiance
That sears against your flesh
Dread rumbling in the deep
Signalling the impending death
Blinded by a caustic storm
The slamming of cyclopean doors
Held aloft the orb ignites
Nowhere to run now from the light
Now standing in the presence of a foe conceived by alien gods
Never again to feel the sun, it immolates you
The Lifeage of the universe, a wind that sweeps the world away
You feel the weight of every world bearing down on you
