Perished Civilisation Lyrics by Abaddon Codex

The Human Parasite

2017

Digging through the ancient walls
Abandoned ruins long ago, long ago
Under the earth
Will we find some answers to creation
Or ancient technologies
Longing for knowledge and the truth
That lies in history
Beneath the soil, beneath the sand
Excavating the halls of mystery
The hope is big, the afford is much
But the winds
They‘re singing a tragic melody
Rise up, wake up
From your thousand year long sleep
This creature filled with hate
You cannot kill what you don't create
Rise up, wake up from your
Thousand year long sleep
Demons of perfection
Costly designs
Covered by permanent rock
Facing the obvious, facing the truth
Those who built this
Knew more than we think
Searching through
Chamber by chamber looting the treasures
But the place comes nearer
Where the bones will turn to dust
Standing in front of the last gate
Thrilled to see which secrets it reveals
Beneath a stunning sight
They explore a machine of old wisdom
A construction‘s inexhaustible force
It brings a chance of evolution
A way to reach the infinite wealth
But the human mind's greed
Prefers to make new forms of slavery
And won't provide for global peace
Once again the weapons
Being turned against ourselves
The ancient knowledge
Used for mass destruction
But soon they notice their mistakes
The reactor detonates
Due to it's exploitation
And sends a signal straight into the deeper space
This cosmic beacon draws attention
Of ancient races
From far away
They start their journey towards earth
To erase the species that destroys this planet
Another empire fallen
Another mission failed
Human kind repeats it's cycle never ending
