Lavos - Mick Gordon

Animals in a cage

Some of us filled with rage

I’ve watched the walls crumble down

As time crawls along

Echoing lies through the halls

All your sacrifice was for naught again

A revelation that cannot be undermined

No one to hear our cries

Save yourself while you can

Death towers overhead

We have been chosen, we are the catalyst

Our nature commands to forsake the lost

But I won’t watch you die

Eyes hollowed out

There’s no sign of life

Not a promise kept

Another prophet to rot in a coffin for all of eternity

We writhe in agony

Save yourself while you can

Death towers overhead

Take back the blood they’ve shed

I won’t see home again

Why?

Bound by premonition

All that I love perishes

Hope withers slowly sown in the garden of violence

All that was holy has now been made wretched

Save yourself while you can

Death towers overhead

Take back the blood they’ve shed

I won’t see home again

Why?

(Rotting prophets)

(Rotting prophets)

(Rotting prophets)

(Rotting prophets)

Animals in a cage, barely kept alive

Driven by grief and vengeance

Some of us filled with rage, some of us with pride

But in the end we’re all empty
