City of Light

Approaching the City of Light
Awaited salvation in sight
White walls so glorious, rising imperious, reaching implausible heights
An army of paupers outside
Running with nowhere to hide
Hoping and reaching, praying, beseeching the City will let us inside
Hear us shout
Else we die
Save us now
War is coming
Exodus nascent in fright
Amoral invaders behind
Rampaging, ravaging, pillaging, savaging; driving us onward in flight
Outside the City of Light
Gates remain locked from inside
Knowing it’s hopeless, abandoned defenceless, we consign ourselves here to die

Grey the Dusk

A red dawn
Is come
We guard a ruined world
Blades drawn
Swords crossed
We will not let it burn
Honoured dead, your names in gold
Watch the world, for time untold
Restful souls now held in thrall
Grey the dusk, ages old
Emptied of all life
Miser hoards the light
He wants the world to burn
Stand fast
Hold strong
We are still far from done
Through blood
And tears
We hold on through the years
We fight
And fight
We raise the banners high
The end
Is nigh
Yet we refuse to die
Emptied of all life
Miser hoards the light
He wants the world to burn
He wants the world to burn
He wants the world to burn

Tyrant

Obliterated
A billion voices scream
Annihilated
The whole world brought to heel
He plagued us
Betrayed us
We lost all hope of our freedom
Enslaved us
The Tyrant
Demanded we bow to his whims
Our creator, so benevolent, drowning us all in a flood
Kills the first born, sends us famine, turning our rivers to blood
Oh dear Father, high in heaven, scorning this world of your own
Shunning mercy, no deliverance, given no chance to atone
Genocidal
A purge for all mankind
So maniacal
God has shown his hand

Beast

Risen from the burning wasteland, monster charging at us all
Spewing fire and spitting magma
Eyes aflame with breath of smoke, a hound a hundred stories tall
Crushing cities, breaking mountains
Horns of battle call the soldiers, form the ranks, prepare for war
Dig the trenches man the guns
Open fire and sound the cannon, bring the monstrous creature down
Down before it kills us all - BEAST
It killed the men, it’s time to…
It broke the walls, it’s time to…
It’s bearing down, it’s time to…
Go, go, go, it’s time to RUN!
Running through the burning forest, screaming, dizzy, about to fall
Hound behind a looming menace
On our trail and howling loudly, gaining fast we draw our swords
Time to make our final stand
Blood and thunder, roaring, stumbling, planets quaking, shake the world
Mountains falling, cities breaking
Death and horror all around us, whirling teeth we’re ripped and torn
Slaughtered by the hound of hell – BEAST
