The Deluge

Look into your subconscious dreams
Endless years before you live
People dwelt in adored bliss
Disregarding the evil seeds

Feel the power of the fall
Obscurity of the dawning soul
Truth of heaven — a deceiving source
Driving down the destructive force

Born to live and born to die
Skies do not hear the dreadful cry
The condemned must die in pain
All will be buried under rain

Black flashes through the blue sky
Twisted winds smash human life
Agony fills the frightened world
Creeping death is in the rainfall

Turn life into fear
His truth is the deluge
Collapse becomes so real
Nothing is left to choose

Malicious murder
Agonizing prophecy
Interpreting the codex
Overall atrocity
Stimulate the anguish
Asphyxiate the spray
Feel the painful torment
Blood rises in the waves

A look of terror — death will bring
People lose the will to live
Empty hopes, blind hate and fear
Ghostly reflections in doom's mirror

Born to live and born to die
Skies do not hear the dreadful cry
The condemned must die in pain
All has been buried under rain

Turn life into fear
His truth is the deluge
Collapse becomes so real
Nothing is left to choose

I can see death slowing down
The state into which we fell
Anguish, suffering, pain —
All the price will be paid in hell
