Accept your fate, you’re forgotten
Give in to the magic that circles the rotten
Putrescent remains of your hands
Your purpose awaits in this tormented land
No choice remains that could haunt us
The unresting souls in this necropolis
Seek a power found only in you
Awaken the green and we still may pull through
From these never-ending days that leave us destitute
They’d tell me they need me and leave me behind
Used for a lifetime then cast right aside
They cannot hear me, I’m not of their kind
I’m fucking exhausted, I’m ready to die
Tell me they need me and leave me behind
Drained of my power, drained of my confines
Pain every hour, the sheathes and the lines
I’m ready to join you, I’m ready to fight
I feel coldness and fear
But I’m still breathing
How could I have come here
Without a reason?
I’ve returned from the bottom of the depths
And I’ll not stay possessed by all the times that I regret
Feel the streams of pure necrotic green
I welcome them to make my final form complete
Accept the fate you’ve begotten
A revenant swarm to the heavens this Autumn
Your kingdom shall fall to its knees
Your people will perish with your lies your misdeeds and
This is the judgment you’ve brought them
A garden of torn skin and mourning will blossom
In unmatched pain, they’ll curse your name
No move can be made when you’re completely swallowed by hate
In the destruction a world’s left behind
Covered in lichen, a lich lord presides
Hands strong and glowing, a scepter alight
This is our time now, the dead shall arise
The hatred above us shall never survive
From rot comes the growth of a new world to thrive
Free from our tormentors, from our past lives
Peace can reign following their great demise
