In Time - Portrait

The burdening looks of the profane

Their watching eyes, a tormenting strain

Cursed to wander in this strange land amongst the lame

For how long must we play this game?

The load I have to carry

To cope with their horrid masquerade

Drooling mouths conjoined in awe for mundane glory

A blind procession bound for the grave

The living dead around me I see

Shackled in line they keep spreading their seed

But I know that in time, all by the Master’s grace

Triumphant I’ll stand to see the end of their ways

The tormenting sight of the soulless

Brain-washed minds in a tragic mess

Born of mud by the hands of my enemy

They’re shaped and fit for an endless sleep

The living dead around me I see

Chained by their necks, yet spreading their seed

But I know that in time, all by the Master’s grace

Triumphant I’ll stand to see the end of their ways

Long live the silent

Who behind our masks take the Warrior’s Stance

The exiled and branded and hidden ones

Despising the tyrant’s dance

Blood shall adorn our tools of harvest

As faithful shades blind their watching eyes

So we may work in this place of unrest

Relieved from all con men of lies

The living dead around us must bleed

In shallow graves we shall plant them as seeds

And we know for all time, all by the Master’s grace

The shades we so plant will oblige and obey
