The Ionian fire - it flickers and falls in the cold wind
In the streets, the cities ablazing
The final descent, the spirals turning;
The barricades are breaking
At breakneck speed, a celestial pestilence descends upon the world
And delivers a sacred gift of everlasting d**h
Get on board the ship, it's sinking
The barricades are breaking!
Annihilate, envenom, impregnate!
Decimate - reduce to ashes. A war of attrition
A sullen contrition, the stench of redemption
We have no need of your salvation
Raise the standard from the broken city walls
Another harbinger of doom, a herald of annihilation
Get on board the ship, it's sinking
The barricades are breaking!
Can't you hear the wolves at the door?
The barricades are breaking!
