The Valley

Dark Fortress

Another promise broken
 Another falsehood thrown to the dogs
 Time and time again we swallow
 Our throats torn by the barbed fruit of iniquity

 On our knees we wither
 Starving on a hollow phantom
 Discarded playthings, we crave in vain
 For the benign almighty lie

 Fools that we are

 Even as our star goes under
 We cling to the noose that will break our necks
 To the benighted psalms of priests drunk with conceit

 Like in the valley of linnom
 Murdered by divinity
 Our grievance shades the mountains
 Our gifted souls became a pyre
 The day the heavens part
 God shall perish in our fire

 When the final perfidy
 Bleeds from the skies
 Our abject eyes will see the truth

 Death
 Death from above

 Forsaken lepers rot away
 Away
