Descent Lyrics


Forsaken now the world is

Hordes of the deceased

They fall into the pits of hell

Their souls will be a feast

Ill-fated are the elders

But the time will come for all

Reckoning upon this plane

The angels start to fall

Sins of the living

Regretful when they're dead

Hades unforgiving

They bide their time in dread

Purging the life they thought was the cure

None could have a heart so pure

To dine within the halls of silver

And sup upon those souls impure

Taken with the pleasures

Overcoming all man’s will

Watched by those in power

They took far past their fill

The realm of man a horror

They sought out foreign lands

But they only spread the gluttony

More blood upon their hands

One cannot rise

Without obligation to fall

Regardless of our heights

Now we heed gravity's call

Sins of the living

Regretful when they're dead

Hades unforgiving

They bide their time in dread

Purging the life they thought was the cure

None could have a heart so pure

To dine within the halls of gold

And sup upon those souls impure

What have you done?

That life we cannot recall

We used to live a soulless life

Now we don't live at all
