Lyrics Augury of Ancients - Symbolik

Augury of Ancients

The flesh emerges
Pulled from a corpse womb
A scene of a mother’s fatal love for her child
Is drenched in the light of the blood moon
Whilst clutching the warmth of his legacy
The king weeps and then speaks to his faded queen
«My love, rest your soul»
He repeated caressing the face of a stone
Foretold was the price you would pay
If his seed were to breathe
The throne he would take
And the coldest of the fates
Will descend upon the land
Long will live the king
But not the same for his enemies
Even knowing all of this
The king could not resist
The pride that he took in his offspring
For this prince flesh will rip
A kingdom built on bones of foes
Through the years that would come to pass
Disturbing occurrences
The haunting of something more
Wretched infectious slice of grim
A servant reports at the king’s request
«My liege I’m not sure how to cleanse this soul»
«Do what you must» his lord insists
No matter the consequence
A crash followed by the flames
Interrupts the peace in the palace walls
His royalty rushes from his seat to be greeted by the scene of his kingdom’s
fall
«Sound the alarm, we are under siege!»
The frail king shouts to all
«Remove my son from the kingdom in secret»
He must not fall
Frantic, he collected the boy
And proceeded to escape through a hidden corridor
He instructed the prince to block all of this
Keep a close pace
And cling to your focus
Approaching the edge of the only land
The boy ever knew he is more than confused
But he does what he’s told
Proceeds into the cold with uncertainty into the unknown
The empire slaughtered the masses
Those who survived were enslaved
A dynasty scorned from hatred
That will fester until it is saved
