Bring me the storm Wash us clean Bring me war Bring me screams Bring me the rain Drown the world Petrichor Make us clean I'm in love with the rain The way it feels on my skin How it smothers the streets The way it washes us clean And I know deep in my heart I want to see the world choke Between the tempest above And rising waters below Rend the seas Drag us down Tear the cloth We will drown Fill your lungs With death Claw your eyes Stolen breath Your god has abandoned you No angels will come for you Endless night Dark skies Quench the sun Crush the light I will watch you die I will see you scratched out from this life I see clouds on your horizon Black clouds No silver lining The world drowns with me I smell dirt after rain Total absence of pain taste of blood in your mouth Water in. Water out.. Endlessly flowing rivers Condemn this world to die Ravens leave home forever And circle in the sky I will drag your bloated corpse To hell with me As the light above you fades Your god is dead I saw it. He drowned. The old world washed away The new king in black is crowned Drown the World Drown the World Drown the World Drown the World

When summer lays down Her breath heavy, breast heaving Sickly and scoured By the chill of the evening Her children once green Now withered and weaker Enter young Autumn Our entropic reaper From the fire Of the day Came the march Of decay In the twilight Of the years Winter Winter Is here As the dark steals the light Unleash the waves of frost All that was good as died Absolute holocaust From the fire Of the day Came the march Of decay In the twilight Of the years Winter Winter Is here Die

Unspoken utterance at the back of your throat. A braid of lilies that becomes a noose You dream to contract the human curse A demonic presence to grow inside of you This cannot be, this too must die Words I cannot speak to you So here we are again my love At the precipice of choice and change Reflecting on the roads we took To be here, cold, alone and in pain This cannot be, this too must die Words I cannot speak to you This cannot be This must die This cannot be This too must die Yes we have lost so many friends To the traps of a painful life Along the way they lost themselves United by our grief, we cry This cannot be, this too must die Words I cannot speak to you This cannot be This must die This cannot be This too must die

Turn over the altar Cast the crosses out A ceremonial cremation For the devout Your insipid children The smoke will fill their lungs We'll reclaim the past Tear out their tongues. O great redeemer! We call the flame Payback the shepherd For millennia of pain We are the fire We'll burn you down Turn churches to cinders Kick the ashes to the ground Their cursed temples Made of stolen wood They raped our forests And disrespect our gods Your churches lay aflame and in ruin Your bastard Nazarene in the mud The price for slaughtering pagans Will be paid in Christian blood O great redeemer! We call the flame Payback the shepherd For millennia of pain We are the fire We'll burn you down Turn churches to cinders Kick the ashes to the ground Nothing Burns Nothing Burns Nothing Burns Quite like a bible burns O great redeemer We call the flame Payback the shepherd For millennia of pain We are the fire We'll burn you down Turn churches to cinders Kick the ashes to the ground

When you lose faith in everything, You are capable of anything Nothing can be known Except that we can never know Reality is just a construct And all your gods are dead I buried them myself With the books above my bed No Masters No Loyalty No Gods - Only beasts No Faith No Lies Just destruction - Nihilists rise The scales fall from our eyes So finally we see Your gods turned away, long ago Shame on them. Shame on me. Morality Is A Construct An Ivory Shroud To Wear And I Don't Care I don't Care No Masters No Loyalty No Gods - Only beasts No Faith No Lies Just destruction - Nihilists rise A stillness like death, In which everything is forlorn A grey line in a sunset The ever-approaching storm Obsessed with our destruction We try to make it mean And spend our twilight hours On what might have been Rise, Nihilists rise Tear the veil that covers your eyes Stand on the cliff's edge And bravely, face the sunset Rise, Nihilists rise Tear the veil that covers your eyes Stand on the cliff's edge And bravely, face the sunset
