Oblivion Lyrics

Album: Ashes

An empire built to stand the test of time

Crippled by mighty stones our forerunners laid

Exile or damnation, it was ours to decide

There's no escaping this reality we face

A fate created by tenacious complacence

This century of man has only hastened our demise

Humanity's dominion, inception to destruction

A celestial eclipse like no creature of this world has seen

Suffocating darkness embraces all

The end approaches

Oblivion

We shall exit this universe as we arrived

Exist to end, oblivion

Submit to the infinite

[Ben Duerr/Shadow of Intent]

Will we be submerged by blackened waters of our own making

Or shall fated flames swallow this final bastion?

A cloud of ash to be the sepulcher for the doomed that roam this world

Black clouds weep cosmic armaggedon

A final test for man, one which he will not endure

Below

[Ville Hokkanen]

Slate cataclysmic waves embrace our shores

Exhuming our primal fears

Disease lays siege on our confined conditions

Novel Plagues knew no rich nor poor

All equal in the eye of the destroyer

Suffocating darkness embraces all

Shown no mercy in eternal eyes

The end approaches

We shall exit this universe as we arrived

Exist to end, Oblivion

Submit to the infinite

Civilization built to fall

Conquest of the unknown comes to an end

Haunting this space in the galaxy for eternity

We shall exit this universe as we arrived

Exist to end, Oblivion

Submit to the infinite

Echoes now silenced by the chasm of space

Our stars now shadowed by devastation

Brace for collapse
