A Work to Stand a Thousand Years Lyrics by Negative Plane

The Pact

0

I have seen it in a dream
A palace to exalt the angels
A monument to the God in Heaven
With spires that seem to touch the clouds
Upon the hill where the martyrs fell
A place of worship will stand
The steeple's shadow across the sky
A spear for the hearts of the unbelievers
Scores of the young and old must break their backs and be crushed beneath the wheels
But the Lord is good and merciful and the work will stand one thousand years
A blessing from the Scarlet One
Rejoice and give thanks!
But the first of those across these steps must perish in the flames
Piling the dead and filling the trenches
Grinding their bones to make from them mortar
Brick upon brick and stone upon stone
Whatever the cost the work must continue
Forty years of endless toil
By the Grace of the Holy Fiend
This cursed place of worship and
Horror will stand therein a thousand years
