Tombward

from Fast As Fuck! by Anger As Art

/

lyrics

I crave a greater horror
A greater massacre
I crave a genocide, a suicide
To call my own
I pray for mass extinction
Craving conspiracy
My blood for acrimony
My life for entropy

Hail the age of crimson
Arterial eternity
United in oblivion's
Many perfect symmetries
One eye given for wisdom
The other plucked in wrath
Given to total blindness
How quickly found the path

And so a dimmer tide has found a silent shore
Arching something that was human, now a husk of twisted gore
From nothing to nothing, the cycle always towards its end
Always towards annihilation, the last and proudest act of man

And as we near the end we come to know the names of death
Violence, deception, horror, misery and wrath
Canonized as deities to rule over the earth
Guardians of resignation, gods of dread rebirth

Clinging like rats to our splintering ruin
lashed to our sorrows unnamed and unmovable
Called to the cause of destruction and wretchedness
At last we are lost, at last we are lost
Movement from nowhere to nowhere in silence
Elects and directs our enduring centurion
Caller of carnage, surveyor of suffering
Brighten the path, tombward bound

Drawn by the glimmering light of the mortician's flame
Shining gold in the flow of the Acheron
We are become death, alone in our shadows
Whispering hymns in the silence and dust
Deeply carved gulches and wounds in forever
Championed never eclipses our history
Obelisks rise to the heights of our failures
Monuments to our doom, tombward bound
