Inferi - The Ancients Of Shattered Thrones lyrics

War subsides Destruction of the humans and the demise of the divine Behold the flames The aftermath of battle mounds of bodies lie in charred remains I will erase remnants of the past destroyed I will remain Plant the seed inside my bloodline sustained Burn all the scriptures of their putrid lies It was not my will to have these peons deny This creation was intended to save our lives Drenched in the flames, the surface of the earth Crumbled structures, idols in our image will now be burned Now the demise, all life is now extinct Cleansing fire will annihilate the souls Of those who love or deny me The all consuming blaze will obliterate Scorching embers char the earth and will devastate Fragments of life now ash Shadows of existence is all that remains Withered and weak The chosen ones will be filled with the seed And planted deep below Inside the womb the demon spawn will grow His enemies will never know Cultivation and preservation of the human soul Their stories forever told The Ancients of Shattered thrones (Lead: M. Pugh) Writings on the walls, the explanation for the fall The beginning of time and the slaughter of their mortal thralls Unrepentant blasphemous slaves Encroaching into darkness, their lives will now be saved Spitting in the face of their martyr, their paths have been paved Forging generations of filth as black seeds beget Victory by corruption in a deity's silhouette Burned and forgotten The sacred dialect, scripture and chronicles shall be Abandoned by divinity Fabrications of life now lost for eternity (Lead: M. Low) The ancients of shattered thrones Left the burdens of withered remains And the stains of their blood flow Through the sewers of humanoid veins Monarchs of the dynasty have sown forbidden seed Lucid was the path to yield their souls into oblivion (Lead: M. Low)
