Shadow of Intent
Album • 2022
Farewell, the time has come The world shall bleed, and into inferno we'll go Farewell, the time has come The world shall bleed, and into inferno we’ll go I must fight, die if I must (Into inferno we go) It won't rest 'till the grounds have no room left (Into inferno we go) All goddamned legions are condemned to their God (Into inferno we go) I beg for your forgiveness (Into inferno we go) For we’ve found ourselves wandering hell Yet my love for you burns forevermore I will climb from this widening chasm To my feet I shall bring defeat beneath my feet I trampled all in my path, I bow not to the Saurian King But if I do not return The fight may take a perilous turn The day may never come where I shall come home For I'll gladly give my own life If it means that you will survive What choice do I have? To fight or die, no way out alive The cowards are left shot in both sides I must [?] survive But without you I shall remain in you You'll live in my heart forever (Forever) For you, I die You'll find me in the afterlife Live out your days with grief out of sight I am sorry that you'll never find My body to say your goodbyes

Oh, this is where it began Before the coming of war With long knives they carve the night Waiting in anticipation To long persist the coming abyss Savage conflict is unfurling Condemning of faith, condemning with hate and death Violent expulsions Claiming the lands as their own A cataclysmic and misanthropic catalyst shall further enrage Demands for our deaths Several long nights of terror The cleansing begins This is the new beginning Of our living hell The coming was foretold, warnings went unheeded We all sat by and stared as the stampede proceeded Conquer all, drudges invading the denizens Laughing and dancing while bidding the devil's work Martyrs lie in the streets on this night So you may live, they give their selfless death But the madness does not end yet Scales project from beneath his ophidian skin Misanthropic, you were never supposed to be king The coming was foretold, warnings went unheeded We all sat by and stared as the stampede proceeded Conquer all, drudges invading the denizens Laughing and dancing while bidding the devil's work Martyrs lie in the streets on this night So you may live, they give their selfless death But the madness does not end yet, my friend This is not the end Pissing right on our graves Razing, dragging our names through the dirt The worst has yet to come The blame for their failures falls on us We pay for this The conflagration of one thousand shrines, yeah! I obey you not You deceive your own Others blinded by your lies I see through them all I obey you not You deceive your own Others blinded by your lies I see through them all

The coming fire, ignited in an instant A purging flame, the swarm engulfs With a lust for war increasing in their appetite Crossing the insects' blood At the pace of lightning propaganda Fuels the massacre, granting who oppose abysmal death They gather at dawn Hail (x16) They march through the vast verdant steppes Leaving naught but ruin behind Their forefathers' words keep them present Absorbed with mephitic pride Burn for your leaders Mourn for your futures Burn for your leaders Yearn for a savior Burn for your leaders Mourn, everlasting mourning for The boundless sacrifice We honor those who died We do not know the price Paid by those who were left behind This tragedy consumes So many wasted lives Those to the left and right Know all too well In a series of failed counteroffensives along the front Encircled in a labyrinth of enemies to die abysmal death Burn for your leaders Yearn for a savior Burn for your leaders Mourn, everlasting mourning for The boundless sacrifice We honor those who died We do not know the price Paid by those who were left behind

Again, they've come to tear down our ideals With prestigious grins, staring down at us Dispelled from the region only to return thirty cycles past These wounds recur; is this the day I die? Forced away, driven into these holes We leave behind our memories of home I've lost all that I know Everything I own was taken away from me Amidst the silence, distant foreboding cries The ambience of warfare chills my bones It should have been me; why did you have to take them away? Now I ask myself, is this the day I die? Forced away, driven into these holes We leave behind our memories of home I've lost all that I know Everything I own was taken away from me Lying low from the sterilization of the earth The roars overhead have chased all wildlife off Each way out has been cordoned off Accumulation of displacement These cellars won't protect us all We will soon meet the same perilous end As the times change, they continue to resist A perverse aggression of no limit As the cities crumble, a rise of fists Now they hunt them down, back to where they live Taught to kill From the day they were born We never asked for conflict But the world views us as the enemy I've lost all that I know Everything I own was taken away from me I've lost all that I know Everything I own was taken away from me

Blood in the sands of time The ageless clock is counting down The purveyors and crusaders bygone live on renowned Some dare aspire to join the ranks of the gods The certainty of your safety now drains with every hour Only the dead have seen the end of war All sons of the many gods The race of men, begotten end Empires fall, years have progressed and are forsaken The meek are cast down, the strongest garnering the gains Sounds of war echo on in solemn spirit The blind, the sick, the old, the young, even the demons hear it And as time passes on, these situations Remain a constant in the name of indemnification The oozing black heart below the surface is calling outward And those who dare listen shall be relentlessly pulled under Worldwide crisis, divinity rehashed The world you see that surrounds you was built from murder The cycle of death continues and we push it further Always mobilized Eager to pulverize Corrupt, destabilize Autonomy strung up high The whole are dead to rights Nothing shall ever suffice The age is prophesized The suicide of our kind Rejecting signs as the grand clock unwinds Oil pipelines pour spilled blood in the sands of time We walk the earth and still the ground, it trembles Transcending elements, from death we cannot hide Suicide of humankind Suicide of humankind Kiss of death claiming lives To persevere is no option, reset, rewind Suicide of humankind Eden is falling apart Sounds of war echo on The sounds of war echo on The sheer will of mankind can only hold on for so long Acting as though the last grain has faltered

This track is instrumental.
Go beyond Dig your graves Bury the bones Wait for God What fate awaits Those who kill? Murderous tyrants Only seek supremacy

Desolate, a sea of rubble and debris They've come to avenge their burning lands Desecrate, the city crumbles under their feet The pestilent forage of all who remain Nevertheless, this headlong struggle for supremacy Persists throughout our history From ancient ages to modern times These untold atrocities have amassed Permeating the ground The soil soaks up their blood Divest this reaping hand Two alphas cannot share the fruits of existence Treacherous tales unfold as the undying hour Of bloodshed reaps and sows the weary and the weak Powers of new blood now play god with maniacal ease They shall enslave all They shall enslave all So, we sing ourselves to sleep When the strong overtake the weak The cities burn, the bridges bend Now, we lay our heads to rest So, we sing ourselves to sleep When the strong overtake the weak The cities burn, the bridges bend Now, we lay our heads to rest The winds of change oust the inept Powers come and go, a fool's Existence subject to their terms Loss roams on neglected Some eyes have not seen a day Spared of loss, litany Anguishing pain, sterile of reasoning Hopeless, it's hopeless Trying to outwit the colossal construct of life itself No matter where you are in this world You'll always have what they want Defaced human creations Memoirs of fallen cultures blanket the blood-red ground Defaced human creations Memoirs of fallen cultures

Now, they crumble the kingdom Tied their hands to their feet Burned, bereft of forgiveness City, a smoldering heap From ancient ages to modern times These untold atrocities have amassed Permeating the ground, the soil soaks their blood Nevertheless, this headlong struggle for supremacy Persists throughout our violent history So, we sing ourselves to sleep When the strong overtake the weak The cities burn, the bridges bend Now we lay our heads to rest So, we sing ourselves to sleep When the strong overtake the weak The cities burn, the bridges bend Now we lay our heads to rest Now, they crumble the kingdom Tied their hands to their feet Burned, bereft of forgiveness City, a smoldering heap Powers of new blood Now play god with maniacal ease They shall enslave all Nevertheless, this headlong struggle for supremacy Persists throughout our violent history Powers unite, joining to extinguish the fight Pacifying, undermining Some survive; others shall be cast alight Into a burning pit of fire Immolate, a creed now disintegrates Never to be seen again Caged, confined, opposition brutalized By an unfamiliar dogma Petrified as the wrong now becomes the right Persecution of a people Some survive, others shall be cast alight Into a burning pit of fire (x3) Isolated, wallowing in the shame No resurgence Preparations for the next war begin This cannot be escaped The world holds its breath, awaiting death Victorious, now, the victor sings And rewrites the cold facts of history To present their greatness to their offspring This process cycles continuously So, we sing ourselves to sleep When the strong overtake the weak The cities burn, the bridges bend Now we lay our heads to rest Victorious, now, the victor sings And rewrites the cold facts of history To present their greatness to their offspring This process cycles continuously
