All consuming survival Has no purpose, no goal In our hearts we know We're prolonging the fall For no man can survive The conflict with time Yet time cannot live without The adoration of man So pay no mind to the wandering ghosts For they are too weak to live And don't follow the burning trails For they are there to deceive I believe there is a darkness For darkness I have seen Pouring out and tainting flesh And no man here is clean And no man is exempt Cowards won't be forgiven Death is carved on their face Branded by odds of even Time carries scent of your fear Hounds of death, they can smell you There's a shadow a coward brings Shadows always betray you Shaking hands with the underworld For its the season of the storm Feel the terrified pulse in soil Wrath of winter is born Those lost in the fog Feel the wrath in their bones Those touched by the frost Know they're dying alone Those touched by fear Take the coward's pay Those who followed the burning trails Know they won't find their way So pay no mind to the wandering ghosts For they are too weak to live And don't follow the burning trails For they are there to deceive I believe there is a darkness For darkness I have seen Pouring out and tainting flesh And no man here is clean Wrath of winter is born In the farthest north Wrath of winter is born Death, wrath of winter is born In the farthest north Wrath of winter is born

Have you ever seen a man That lost all hope Past zeal and all polemics What a sight to behold Man is lesser Than ever before A trapped animal That can't fight anymore Nothing Never Nether To come afterward Trawling in Crushed within The stomach of the cosmos In debris and blood Nothing Never Nether To come afterward Trawling in the stomach of the cosmos We're the apostles of our limitation The horror of the mortal reach The strain and possession The reason and its enemies With or without us The universe burns High on the dead stars The dust and the fumes With or without us The universe burns Weakened by the birth Bleeds out through its wounds Nothing Never Nether To come afterward Trawling in Crushed within The stomach of the cosmos In debris and blood Nothing Never Nether To come afterward Trawling in the stomach of the cosmos United as one We're all circling doom One by one Constructing this ruin We're the apostles of our limitation The horror of the mortal reach The strain and possession The reason and its enemies And there's no other way No higher road to take Let this vessel decay Fade

In spite and anger Cut down the oldest tree Ashamed of what it has seen Things grander than thee Like species after species The end has come to find us Hour after hour Earth grows cold around us So much potential Wasted so fast For all we know, the forests watched many go And they'll go with us Roots run deep Past graves marked by stones Past forgotten kings Cradling the jewel-clad bones The earth has collected What was buried in snow The roots can't be bested Tricked to reveal what is hidden below Like species after species The end has come to find us Hour after hour Earth grows cold around us So much potential Wasted so fast For all we know, the forests watched many go And they'll go with us Decades conquered by the centuries The monuments bask in the sun A beast at war with the universe All that lives is touched by the fear of man Like species after species The end has come to find us Hour after hour Earth grows cold around us So much potential Wasted so fast For all we know, the forests watched many go And they'll go with us

For want of a nail The shoe was lost For want of a shoe The horse was lost For want of a horse The rider was lost. For want of a nail At what fucking cost? Zealots Misanthropes Head down Shameful animals For want of a rider The message was lost For want of a message The battle was lost For want of a battle The kingdom was lost For want of a nail At what fucking cost? Zealots Misanthropes Head down Shameful animals Open the flesh, the barrier is thin The hunger lives under the skin Moves the muscles and the bones By will alone For more The kings in this world All want more The fire that burns Wants it all Ornate and rich Are tombs of time But in the dark The gold won't shine The gold won't shine Fucking lunacy Frenzied fools No-one is exempt, none of you You're dust, you're fools No-one is exempt, none of you
