Plague the Land/King of Decay Lyrics


I am the ruler of the wasteland

Your fate decided by the scales in my hand

Symbolic of your desire

Of your longing, for the that you once had

The crops have died from the ashen ground

And the wind is gone without a sound

Mountains fall as the castle crumbles

Unholy chains bound the earth

Descending Fahrenheit

A gruesome paradise

Depleting all our lives

Is his deadly delight

The grand decay brought by his hands

A morbid wonderland

We cannot take it

We cannot withstand

And the curse he put upon

Each and every man

The horseman walks among us in the sand

He comes alive to plague the land

Solo (Delbridge)

Solo (Shute)

[Chorus]

Dark clouds descend, but there’s no rain in sight

Lightning strikes down, cracks the mountains with its might

All of our memories lay dead on the ground

Crimson veil appears before us

It’s starting to surround us

Hunger, famine, darkness, loneliness

Stripped of humanity, transformed into savage beasts

Prey on the weak, silence, they stay asleep

Black sky, lands die, so hear the world cry

The 3rd broken seal, my body cannot feel

Bereft of all my senses, my pain won’t go away

As all the cities fall, upon his horse he stands tall

As leads us astray, he’s the king of decay

Solo (Delbridge)

Solo (Shute)

[Chorus 2]
