about

Surprisingly, this one one of the few song on this album we actually co wrote. Most songs were written separately than brought to the other to learn the other parts for completion. Perhaps that is why this was always one of my personal favorite.

lyrics

Summoned to extinguish their peaceful lands
Blood stains upon foreign soil
The rape of empiricism, the cruelty of my merciless wrath
No one shall be sparred as we march on
Fulfilling our conquest to destroy the weak and reclaim that which is ours
As genocide causes havoc upon innocence their kingdom falls
Complete obliteration as sheer rage is conjured forth from my blood
To pillage the golden halls of immaculate beauty
And to lacerate the flesh of royalty up high, so far up high
Desolate and scalded landscapes, what once was alive, now dead
I gaze at this thriving kingdom, now buried in ashes
The inferior king has been dethroned now just a lifeless corpse
Laying cold with all those he oppressed
The maggots feast on those of royal blood
The golden pillars that fortified this godly city are but ruins of crushed remnants in a mass pile of desecration
The ecstasy of victory pulses through my veins
Our troops march upon the obliterated Earth below
In the distance more signs of human congregation
Through the shadows we approach with weapons of vengeance
A trail of fire follows behind, with speed we shall meet the bleak horizon, make haste, before the light of day another kingdom shall perish
Such a pathetic sight as they begin to flee, faces smashed into the ground.
Mauled by gore saturated hooves as your consciousness is diminished
This plague of iron and steel sweeps across the countryside to eradicate the human race
Your agony shall never subside!
