The Age of Treason - Lahmia

As thunders ripped the sky apart

They infused unrelenting fear in us:

Scattered shreds of life

No hideout, no heavenly land

Could spare us from that abusive compulsion

To see order where there’s none

In search of stillness, we could not fairly deal with those threats

In a higher world we relied to justify the unfairness of our state

Relegated, with no power to face the world

With no wisdom to lead mankind ahead of itself

In a glorious and resolute hunt for answers

The progress of none, a stillborn age of reason

Disheartening, how we missed our first chance

To ban the denial of the past now we’re alive

The custom for cheap lies stagnates

Sanctified, these foul words are law, we should not abide

Yet events prove us wrong 'cause of thoughtless sacrifices

We lost our chance twice

But the inertness of men became their bane

As they fought for pride and land

Not a single soul got saved

A pitch black demonstration

Resonates throughout the eons:

The deepest Age of Treason

Our kin divides between the saints that hear God calling

And those who call for truth to arouse all of mankind

To awake his mind, to break the line

A line of indolence so stale to last for centuries

Indulgence is not harmless for us, for you, for them:

For those who are yet to come

It’s time for light to take its place and shine clear

No deceit will flee its reveal

In discord we’ll see our dawn

With cunning and awareness, we’ll lead our stride

The stride towards all that is truth throughout our life

Exploiting our reasoning

We’ll hunt down this superstitious scourge

The fall of dead ends shall come as earthquakes strike:

Sudden, arrogant and dire

Shocked by the clash, mankind will repent for his treacheries, his morbid acts,

his spite

All aimed to himself

We are of the creators of our path

We are the consistent flag for our progeny

We drain our veins

We fear the arrival of death

We do not comprehend

We swallow dirt and sand

But we mind, we do mind

How to better live

How to reach harmony

How to be better kin

We do mind
