Signs of the Swarm - Echelon lyrics

I feel the venom's burn Upon this echelon No hope remains Open the golden gate Only death and despair awaits In the depths pulses an oozing infection Beneath the tides dwell hidden lies Serpents curling their backs Envy-coated spines Embracing their delusion That the ship they're sailing The wave of vipers weighing you down You can swim or you can drown Your gods are covetous leeches Tear you to pieces in a sea of serpents Their fangs are sinking into your back Fade to black in a sea of serpents Old venom in the veins of your idols Surging like electric No hope remains Closer and closer Closer and closer I feel the venom's burn Upon this echelon Envy-coated spines They embrace their delusion Breeding a deaf generation Where will I find my cure? You can swim or you can drown Your gods are covetous leeches Tear you to pieces in a sea of serpents Their fangs are digging in your back Fade to black in a sea of serpents Your gods are covetous leeches They're golden demons in a sea of serpents Amongst the lost and damned Amongst the low and empty With kings and queens I stand Their power always tempting Lay your vengeance Let me become divine You will feel my presence In your envy-coated spine The venom's burning Turning idols to ash Lost in the current We were never made to last We're all servants Drowning in the sea of serpents We're all servants Drowning in the sea of serpents We are servants Drowning in the sea of serpents We're all servants Drowning in the sea of serpents
