Stand your ground,
and spit out your teeth.
You are not what you claim to be.
If only the house hadn’t crumbled,
the frame hadn’t smashed,
you would not have such calloused knees.
From kneeling in the dirt,
gasping for air and strength,
with dust choking your lungs
and body broken and spirit spent.
Stand,
smile,
but don’t drop your shield.
Rest tonight,
by the sentinels light,
Sleep,
soundly,
but don’t drop your shield.
We are not sacred,
but we need not be scared,
this is the last procession,
this is the last march to war.

The stars
tell me half a world of
endless waves and isolation
days pass
numberless
stranded
and lost at sea.
Monolith
shrine to unholy
sunken gods
rise.
The black,
water breaking,
reaching out, madness takes me.
eldritch,
architect,
horror,
of my last dreams.
Over the ridge,
across the festering plain,
singing for sanity,
laughing for liberation.

Oh Father!
I will burn the idol.
Oh brother!
I will rid the world.
I know the good words,
I will admonish the age.
Royal blood fills my veins,
divine will guides my blade,
Steel will sing your name,
Father, I come home.
Prosper over the godless,
I bring eternal peace,
Born in blood, my kingdom come,
I bring eternal peace,
Choke the heathens on their idol’s own heresy,
Climb their bodies to the sky.

Frozen terror,
drowning Erebus.
700 tons of coal and iron
crush ice beneath our will
Forging forward
the northwest kneels
the passage yields.
For glory eternal.
Hunger and frostbite
motionless in white
lead running through my veins
Only struggle and madness endures
Our wretched plight.
Snowblind and desolate.
For glory eternal
My footprints dissolve behind me
The snowblind, the desolate
Were never even there.

Fire
temples burn
Old Gods
split the sky.
Across the endless sea
you bring death and destruction
in skin made of sunlight
you bring a world to its knees.
Echo through the hills,
the roar of the serpent
bear the burden of divinity
I am the dawn, the setting sun
Plaguebringer
Desolator
You are the Plaguebringer.
I am the one who speaks.
You are the Desolator.
Golden hour.
Silver scar.

Thank the sky and bless the field.
Pray to the sun for your next meal.
She will protect us from the night -
and we will live and die in her light.
Hands towards the heavens.
Staring through blinded eyes
the light begins to fade.
The walls will fall.
The ground will shake.
The garden will die.
The ground will shake.
Why have you forsaken me?
We can only repent
repent for our sins
we can only repent
We can only repent
repent for our sins
we can only repent
Build the pyre
slaughter the herd
slay the firstborn, slay the firstborn
cower in terror
in front of your creator
and bow to your destroyer.

Crushed under the weight of countless heavy boots and heavy hearts.
The word is already spoken.
Your life by his charge
the steel has already fallen
your blood by my hand.
Banner raised atop the fallen.
Oracle in red and gold.
The word is already spoken,
Your life by his charge,
The steel has already fallen,
Your blood on my hands.
My hands are shaking
My eyes are closed
My home is waiting
Beasts
Follow
Flying
The golden flame
