lyrics

Oh, Terra
Oh, Tyranny

Plague still breeds beneath the flames
Still, it billows
And the ashen bones feed the blood-fat thorns and vines
Our filthy waters nourish the undergrowth
They drown out their righteous decay
And these roots of demise, they run through the flesh
Let the bells ring before the end

Oh, Justice
Oh, Tyranny

Bring for the night and its justice
Let us bow before the harvest
The smoke billows in the endless grey
Let the toxic plumes choke out of the screams of man

Lawless nature, let us bow before the harvest
Bittersweet is the consequence as the toxic plumes choke out the screams
These whispers of phantoms, the bringers of justice
The begging that comes as her roots run deep.
As she peels away the rotten flesh of man.
Let the soul fade
Let the pain be slow

Brother, ring the bells with your bloody hands
Let them ring de)afening for the rebirth of Terra
Sing the putrid psalms and bring forth the death of man
As you dance on the embers, we'll lay on the burning mounds and plead...

Oh, Justice
Oh, Tyranny
Banish our bones from the dirt
