Ironclad - Ares Kingdom

We’ve survived a firestorm of derision

And now their weakness is revealed

The hydra called modernity has failed

And wether or not the flock understands…

The blood of our fathers must be justified

Justified at all costs

This faul, faul world ridden with apathy

Has lost its place in all things

I am as the serpent’s crest

Ouroborous and Regal at once

The world at the center of my coil

My tail consumed, leaves me hungry for more

Finding courage in the spheres

Horizons dark as ever before

Once you come this way

You’ll never wish to return

The path is of fire and lit by pain

Stark truths are their own reward

Dreams and illusions shatter like glass

Sans sympathy for its own sake

I am as the serpent’s crest

Ouroborous and Regal at once

The world at the center of my coil

Sans sympathy for its own sake

From nothingness to nothingness

Black clouds parting for the dawn

From far beyond the voices still sound

Made wretched by the distance we’ve come

I’ve lived to fight another day

The day of infamy — declaration of war
