The Scourging Lyrics by Dekapitator

The Storm Before the Calm

0

[Verse 1]
Sifting through the wreckage, the empire of those killed
Sword of Damocles now fallen, brought down by totalitarian wills
Nuclear strike
Atomic might
Came crushing down
To split the ground

Crawling from the carnage, twisted, chaos breed
As it once was it shall be again, arise, archaic creed
Mankind has fell
Earth now a hell
Unspeakable things
Forgotten grotesque beings

[Chorus]
The scourging
What for aeons slumbered is now awake
The scourging
A world that will nevermore be sane
The scourging
What for aeons slumbered is now awake
The scourging
A world that will nevermore be sane

[Verse 2]
From places deep within the earth, the elder ones emerge
A shattered world their new dominion abhorrent demiurge
Tendrils unwind
Within human minds
Scions of decay
Become their slaves

Enclave of the repugnant, the reign of shadowy nightmares
Crawling up to rule once more, now all the earth is theirs
Sanity is lost
A new holocaust
This world descends
Into darkness without end

[Chorus]
The scourging
What for aeons slumbered is now awake
The scourging
A world that will nevermore be sane
The scourging
What for aeons slumbered is now awake
The scourging
A world that will nevermore be sane

[Guitar solo]

[Verse 2]
From places deep within the earth, the elder ones emerge
A shattered world their new dominion abhorrent demiurge
Tendrils unwind
Within human minds
Scions of decay
Become their slaves

Enclave of the repugnant, the reign of shadowy nightmares
Crawling up to rule once more, now all the earth is theirs
Sanity is lost
A new holocaust
This world descends
Into darkness without end

[Chorus]
The scourging
What for aeons slumbered is now awake
The scourging
A world that will nevermore be sane
The scourging
What for aeons slumbered is now awake
The scourging
A world that will nevermore be sane
