Unto the black wings of doom
I lay me down
I lift me up into the sky
Undo the shadows in this room
I take them now
I rip it up and now I fly
For mortal hands cannot unravel this monster
The sands I lost, the lands that I conquer
Keep running off
Destiny's rules
All hope is lost
To blood rites and duels
Stand on the towers that loom
I pick and choose
What secrets I will reveal
Answer and speak to the moons
In shallow dues
I pay back the power I steal
Immortal minds can't undo this legend
I'm left behind to break through this dead end
Under signs of bleak cataclysm
The light reflects through a soul like a prism
In the shadows I rise like an angel of light
Destined for the apocalypse chained in the night
Through sweet eternity I will prevail
Though my mind is unguarded, my thoughts will assail
The taste of my victory quickens my pace
I slowly pull off the mask, revealing my face
As wings of the behemoth spread from my back
The tidal waves crash as the thunderbolts crack
In the distance of time I can see it all end
With my brother alive, my true king and friend
I could be like the gods if you only lived once
For the glory I lied and I fell to my wants
In the face of all reason I stripped it away
All the armor of light I was clad in that day
From the recess of universal revision
To the dystopia of a devil's nation
I mapped it all out, on walls of stone below the abyss
I said my goodbyes and let you go with one last kiss
Watched you fall into a slumber meant to last forever
In keeping with my schemes, I kept your world together
In the darkness where I make my moves
Playing games with petulant children, I can't lose
Walking through the gates as I predicted that they would
Leading them into the core, those paragons of good
I only ask that all of you keep holding to your natures
When you unveil your evolution leads to genocide
You fought against your better selves, my guiding hand of fate turns
I set aside a mystery to save you all from parasites
Enhanced, you die in misery
My arms are open for your weeping hearts
I set your souls in entropy
To save you from the darker parts
Your spiritual constitution failing in the end
I can't be blamed for your design, you're flawed my witless friends
I've seen the future of your people, the swarms are all you'll see
From nests below the island's shell, machinery is your destiny
In the shadows I rise like an angel of light
Destined for the apocalypse chained in the night
Through sweet eternity I will prevail
Though my mind is unguarded, my thoughts will assail
The taste of my victory quickens my pace
I slowly pull off the mask, revealing my face
As wings of the behemoth spread from my back
The tidal waves crash as the thunderbolts crack
In the distance of time I can see it all end
With my brother alive, my true king and friend
I could be like the gods if you only lived once
For the glory I lied and I fell to my wants
In the face of all reason I stripped it away
All the armor of light I was clad in that day
From the recess of universal revision
To the dystopia of a devil's nation
And I see the stars as my birthright
A crown of galaxy jewels on my head
The cosmos under my reign of night
For all time, for the king of all the dead
One nation under devil
In the shadows I rise like an angel of light
Destined for the apocalypse chained in the night
Through sweet eternity I will prevail
Though my mind is unguarded, my thoughts will assail
The taste of my victory quickens my pace
I slowly pull off the mask, revealing my face
As wings of the behemoth spread from my back
The tidal waves crash as the thunderbolts crack
In the distance of time I can see it all end
With my brother alive, my true king and friend
I could be like the gods if you only lived once
For the glory I lied and I fell to my wants
In the face of all reason I stripped it away
All the armor of light I was clad in that day
From the recess of universal revision
To the dystopia of a devil's nation
