I, the Devourer Lyrics


Born of blood, oh god of chaos

My mother of monsters, she who bodes anguish

A damning prophecy woven by the hands of fate

This beast will bring ruination

The sun to be devoured, the kings of gods to fall

False idols will reap with their kin

The gods will understand true pain

But for now, deceit descends

As god-forged chains constrain my limbs

The end is nigh, watch all your gods run and hide

Cold steel is gagging me, fate has abandoned me

Chained to this rock, but I will not rot

Breaker of chains that the gods disdain

Look what they've done, look what they've done

Sneaking, conniving, fat, traitorous fucks

Will snap in my jaw as I go to gnaw

Desolate homes and hollow bones

Where is your throne, lord?

Oathbreaker, chainbreaker

Begin your hunt!

(Begin your hunt!)

A true beast of dread shall rise

From these feeble restraints; forsaken, betrayed

The sun to be devoured, the kings of gods to fall

They will be in my thrall, unbreakable chains

As god-forged shackles constrain my limbs

As times before this time again

Lay waste, these chains

To gods' disdain, their kind will be slain

The great devourer

Watch them suffer

I shall feast on the all-father of lies

Death by teeth, watch the fire grow

The howling terror of the Ragnarök

I am unleashed

Great devourer

Swallow the sun and become unbound

The end, free your mind of I, chainbreaker

Now is the time, a perfect death

Lie through your teeth, die

GUT AND MAIM
