Dew-Scented - Cities of the Dead

Go! Seeing through souls of black
Into absence of redemption,
No signs of life in this desert of mankind
Breathing out frames of dust,
Bodies lay in ash again
Under skies of red
Call, welcome the end
Striving for comfort while we slay,
Self-created glamour of disease,
To the sound of mortal screams
We are burying one another...

Retribution - Absolution go!
In streams of blood
Bathing in lust
A far cry from death!
Ruins of presence
Damnation on hold,
Necropolis rise

The cities of the dead!
A million spirits longing for rest!
A pain unending
Downward spiral's light,
A far cry from death!

Vanished future
Preview the past
Necropolis rise!

Rise! With bliss in my eyes,
Contemplating
Educated perdition
Cultivated death!
