lyrics

False Sovreign:

Deceit of the tongue to endenture the masses
Claiming false soveriegnty by blood
Vengeful hands often have a lust for control, idle hands are seldom spared from woe

Misdirection remains his most sacred rite
The populus left naive, completely drained of sight
For he who sacks the cities rarely shares his spoils
Those who remain conditioned to the decay considered normal

His kingdom bred from lies generations thick
Power derived from myth hidden behind a crucifix
His lechery never runs dry conquest at the price of lives
By will of saints they fight, by will of kings they die

And those who were heard
Silenced by the knife
Never to be deposed
Their bones left for the crows

The blood paid to the false sovereign

The upper echelons taken in his stride
In favor of the Augurs longing to see throught their eyes
Blessed is he by the clereics who deceive their pulpits
Vast are the monuments which proclaim his name

Gone is the age of the oracles
Heed the calling of destiny, rise or burn
Fortune rarely favors the faint of heart

Secure the bloodline or forfeit the throne
Codify the legacy never perish unknown
The sacrifice will not be in vain

The blood never repaid

Misfortune befell the false soverign
Remembered were those silenced by the knife
The mystics mistaken in their foresight
Mutilated by the populus
Left for the crows.
