Prometheus Bound Lyrics


Starved and frozen hands

hold up these skeletal frames of misery

crawling in darkened caves

bloody faces, gritted bone split teeth

Prayers from rotting mouths-these god ignored

formless bodies in endless pain

Cowards saluting death, the silent friend

lightless, abandoned of warmth

winters hand asphyxiates

War and famine are eroding spirts

Minds in ruin unfortunate decimated

flesh

suffering hopeful thought

torrential pain from birth to death

hungry smiles

Unending emaciation

unripened youth, fed on lack and scarcity

their only hope to carry on...

Rip open the fur to consume the meat

quenching cold skin with hot spurts of blood

vomiting sickness into fresh carcass

nourishing the young with corroded hands

Upon the white mountain

resides the halls of fattened lords...

testaments of the ill fated curs

lost unto the drunken ears of the gods

Spoil us naught your unworldly deeds

In fireless depths we escort our souls

Ambrosia dried upon the lips

of these damned majestics whom misery ignores

Deliver us from existence

we the heirs of indignant whores

Man's savior is a titan

scaling Olympus in low pursuit

to thieve a spark from thunderbolt

the burning gift clenched tight in hand

From cruel and powerful Zues

an almighty power is thus granted

sacred life giving flame

triumphing worlds of ice and blindness

What have you done Titan!

flouting the will of the almighty one

Upon this eternal mountain

will thee lament
