lyrics

Place built on trampled bodies
Diseased and paralysed
Buried where they fell dead
Like crippled insects

Raised from blackened soil
Steel monstrosity

Rising skyward
From the gutter to the gods
Open wound on the land
Infection
Virus spreading
From the gutter to the gods
Birth of a nation
Baptised in blood

Island universe
Cage of surreal being
This flawed masterpiece
Of their own making

Raised from blackened soil
Steel monstrosity

Rising skyward
From the gutter to the gods
Open wound on the land
Infection
Virus spreading
From the gutter to the gods
Birth of a nation
Baptised in blood

Descent into the centre
Slaves but none can see
Vestige of humanity
Words that lured the ignorant

Unwise to live with illusions
Power lord or fugitive
There are no motives without deceit
A powerful instrument of control
Vultures Circle overhead

Fear and threats
In spiralling shadows
The brave fall
Unholy ground
Rebellion never formed
Empty space
A partial radiance
Ill conceived notion

Looking beyond the scope of reason

Looking beyond the scope of reason

A glimpse of twisted light
Pure will and bone
The last to repent
They have always been the enemy
The enemy
How to end this plague
Fear of the steps
That leave no trace

Rising skyward
From the gutter to the gods
Open wound on the land
Infection
Virus spreading
From the gutter to the gods
Birth of a nation
Baptised in blood

Remorse and regret
