We have seen the hive burn beneath the mortcloth dawn

After years of waiting the day had come and gone

We have seen the tide turn and epochs washed away

Now sense light abating and know the price to pay

Failure followed anywhere you stood

Every word a blemish, every step a scar

And if you dream this might be for your own good

You deserve your fate like the clueless fuck you are

Talks of collateral damage and lamentable mistakes

Sleepwalking single file while the ice beneath you breaks

How much lower must you fall to reach the ruin you seek?

How much farther must you crawl to choke on your own reek?

This was our world, drained and sold short

The jesters slew the kings in their courts

Terminal desolation brought by your madness about

Imminent dissolution spreads within and without

Bathed in sanguine twilight

Our walls have nothing left to guard

Like nameless graves bereft of memory

And if a new day should rise

Over the wastes of the scarred

Soundless oblivion be our legacy
