Emptiness - Thy Art Is Murder

Born only of despair

Hope crumbles under the horrors we bear

Death into life, the flask of our idols

Spills poisonous smite upon their arrival

A river of ice meets a mountain of fire

All hope torn asunder by human desire

Under a serpent’s tongue

The fruit of life

Heaven and hell

Cast from the flame and the flies

Back to the soil

Our ties to the planet

Severed by knife

Severed by knife

We’ll cry of the cancer

And we’ll fail for the cure

Let the sorrow consume us

The burden’s impure

We’ll cry of the cancer

And we’ll fail for the cure

Let the sorrow consume us

The burden’s impure

Sick from the filth

Spew forth black blood

Unchain the machines

That hold off the flood

I see no hope

I don’t feel the fear

We don’t have to stay here

We don’t have to stay here

A river of ice meets a mountain of fire

All hope torn asunder by human desire

Emptiness

Godless gluttons

Emptiness

I give you

Emptiness

Godless gluttons

Emptiness

We’ll cry of the cancer

And we’ll fail for the cure

Let the sorrow consume us

The burden’s impure

We’ll cry of the cancer

And we’ll fail for the cure

Let the sorrow consume us

The burden’s impure

Flesh to the dirt

Necks to the stone

Scorching the soul

Hollowing bones

Flesh to the dirt

Necks to the stone

Scorching the soul

Hollowing bones

Don’t bring me back from the dead

Don’t bring me back from the dead
