Usurpation Songtext
von Hath

Slaves to the curse rotting away
No memory to sustain
Everything ends
Drifting further from life
Embers will fade

In the pantheon of old
I′ll find my place
I'll ascend to snuff the light
Usurping the fire

What rises may fade
The spread of the dark begins
Seeking its vessels
The flame would be its bane
I covet the throne


The brighter, the flame
The deeper, the shadow
Such is the way
Free from death
Left to wander forever
Inherit fire

What rises may fade
The spread of the dark began
Seeking its vessels
The flame would be its bane

The writhing ruin bearing the curse
Always searching, wanting for naught
This ghost in the mirror
A mockery masquerading as a living thing

Every pound of flesh
Every bleeding wretch
All have failed before
To harness the truth

I′m a vessel for the dead
Their secrets are the prizes I lust
Knowledge of demise from the minds of the wise
We've lost but will soon see
For my faith lies in ruins


Let the dark be cast upon the world
Wasted to death by sloth
The might of the tempest
For he who lets the light die out
