Burn the Pyre Lyrics by Resisting Vegas

Fearless in its Wake

2019

Fire is feared not
When blood alone is fearless in its offering
Restless, the onslaught
With blades held to ease into the slaughtering
Fate I am, and I have woken
From the dead you left unchosen
Hellhounds feed on dogs of war
Blame the gods you kneel before
Spears in a phalanx
Give way to a reckoning
Blackened water, bleeding dry
Cross me once and end your life
Through the mire, through the hate
The countless ones who lie in wait
Dim the lantern, burn the pyre
Red the full moon in lurid fire
Death you know is never late
And death you know you can't escape
Blood in the mud rests
When dirt drinks from the bitter price of bravery
Malice of madness
They fall without the pleasing cry of misery
Fate I am, and I have broken
Blind prophets for words misspoken
They will march, but they are frail
They might as well be blood for sale
Shields in a phalanx
Fall prey to a reckoning
Blackened water, bleeding dry
Cross me once and end your life
Through the mire, through the hate
The countless ones who lie in wait
Dim the lantern, burn the pyre
Red the full moon in lurid fire
Death you know is never late
And death you know you can’t escape
Sullen is the night
Beautiful and cold
Out among the dead
Wandering alone
In a given moment
She'll drag us all to hell
But, I intend to keep her
And court her for myself
Sun rays cut through the morning sky
For the doomed to fall, for the dead to rise
And if you fight with the roar of hell relentless
Fate won't forgive those who stand against us
Send your champion, let him decompose
With a sun-soaked blade, with a javelin thrown
Another soul in the world with just a head to cleave
Under gods who are helpless should they intervene
Hear me now oh heavenly muse
Am I doomed to fall? What have I to lose?
You can break my body, you may bring the end
But I will walk this world again
Blackened water, bleeding dry
Cross me once and end your life
Through the mire, through the hate
The countless ones who lie in wait
Dim the lantern, burn the pyre
Red the full moon in lurid fire
Death you know is never late
And death you know you can’t escape
