Pt I: Upon the Dying

Locked within this cedar's glare

Eating my own lion's share

Observing their lives from above

Restless be my wicked soul

Tempted by your witching glow

Abandoned through your anarchy

World in flames, reign of pain

Wasted land by divine hand

Dying smiles, long lost cries

Facing down the dying crown

Blessed by my soul that took the pain

Blessed by my lust that betrayed me

Blessed by my hear that putrified

Cursed by my god who crucified me

Thus death overtakes and swallows

Nothing remains the same

Lay us down, deep down here

Amongst these ruins

Lay us down, deep down here

Amongst dead flowers

And let us sleep eternally

Upon the dying

Oh let us sleep eternally

Upon the dying

World in flames, reign of pain

Wasted land by divine hand

Dying smiles, long lost cries

Facing down the dying crown

Part II: Ocularis Infernum

Thousand tears from bleeding eyes

Witness how weak mankind dies

No alpha race to reign supreme

No new messiah to set us free

Now my eyes are open

And my heart is broken

For what I have seen

Should have never been

Look deep into my red, glowing eyes

And tell me, what do you see?

From long slumber demon freed?

Crying god at my feet?

Demi-god in darkness? Icon of sin?

Antichrist? This war within?

See the end of humanity

Witness the glorious rise

Of vampiric tyranny

Vampiric tyranny!
