Empire of Lies
Illusions of endlessness Will fall now dead behind Mankind's eternal tomb Greet new arrivals All poisoned in the wretched womb Born blind and numb into a world Finite, conditional In shallow graves Existence reaped Dragged out to defeat Existence so bleak Withered lies our just relief Deep in the crypts of time We bury the secrets The final passing of The breed of shallow fates Taken away In torment and in strife Where once was light Now fades to grey This is our Empire of lies Pulled by the strings of time From sickness into birth Borne on the fraying wings of death The barren wastelands call What pitiful life remains Trampled into the earth Existence reaped Dragged out to defeat Existence so bleak Withered lies our justified relief Empire of lies We started this fire That burned the world A candle made from us That burned at both ends
