4th track from Hail The Horror's debut release, 'A Symphony Of Horror'
lyrics
Blood is charred to black with extinguished souls
No light nor solace in these darkened halls
The Betrayer rules above us with his cursed skull
He strides the battlements, no solace in his fall
YOU ARE NOT PREPARED!
Damned by his own hands, we will break these walls
The Betrayer shall be betrayed
Twin blades stained by the power that runs through his veins
Annihilation of the sweetest kind
Hooves of steel and alabaster horns, The Huntress is nothing without the hunt
Kept atop the spires far from reach - Maeiv, Maeiv, what have you unleashed?
But still he hungers!
Is there no end?
Break me down, scarred with grief
You are not your own, foe of she
Elune be forsaken, Sargeras shall cleanse
Into your weary hands - God amongst men
'Twin blades stained by the power that runs through his veins'
Leader of the Naga and the saviour of the dead
Is it not the greatest tragedy all things come to an end?
Your victories prolific - God amongst men
10,000 years and he grows weary for his time
Eyes burned through with lust for his sleep
What do you see, 'God amongst men?'
Your scars once purified by the waters of eternity
Destroy this earth, burn everything down
It is your birthright to wear the crown
Of pure power - they have denied you your right
Take it from them, it is yours tonight.
Green flame and beasts of old
A stampede of hate for those who sold
You to your captors
Every second is revenge
Malfurion is a traitor, Tyrande is a whore
She reaps from you what she swore
Does the snow cleanse Frostmourne's wounds?
Arthas has left you all too soon.
Do you feel it burn as you walk on hallowed ground?
Embers flow as you take your bow
Behind a veil of cloth you can see it now
Betrayer, prodigy, you don't make a sound.
