Your Highness - Vultures
05:18

silence is upon us the fog surrounds us all
gather all the scum and trash to stand by us in war
hallowed ground on fire down to the swamps again
sacrifice your own denial despise thy blood and land
no sleep no rest for the dead
vultures they came here to feast on our flesh
not worthy of dying suffer instead
praise me for what I've become
a stranger to freedom a slave to the one
follow the shadows into the sun
stare into the horizon in blackest nights we hide
take us back where the chaos rumbles back where the beast resides
reign amongst these villains once an alliance of a million strong
bound to the hellion fires bound to the depths unknown

suffer in silence there's nobody here
to guide you on your last parade
abandoned by day embraced by the night
we are believers our victim is divine
black moon rising
cowards of men
drowned by desire
drenched in dirt
coming back to haunt you
from the gallows
by sounds of decay
black moon rising
cowards of men
drowned by desire
there's nobody here
to guide you on your last parade
abandoned by day embraced by the night
we are believers in crime

cold and alone shivering bones
this is your god your devouring fire
comely grace smothering fate
running blind run the asylum
I see the death in your eyes
I see evil in the death of night
awakening of hate and destruction
I come alive
we are the masses
longing for the sound of a death knell
taste of blood
blessed by the beast
becoming your only highness
your only god

I am afraid the numbers will haunt me eight means you're fucked get on your knees boy do watch your steps don't count too far now and if you do show it your knuckles between your eyes there's enough to believe it the timer is set five six seven nine the number eight will kill you when spoken so skip a beat and spare me the voodoo black magic and curses double the four when you're tired of breathing call me a freak point laugh and mock me don't do the math 'cause the eight will destroy you hold all the aces shuffle the deck what are the odds you're picking a doomed one I'm in my hell so come forth and join me down in t he seventh and adding a circle

What keeps your engines pumping you're a goddamn machine this toxic touch you're feeling is it a joke or for real are you cheating death are you seeing red temptation's your beset friend now like a jack in the box the devil's dying to meet you 'cause his backbone is gone are you cheating death are you seeing red are you spitting old grim in the face or do you rest your case your soul keeps dancing on like a fool in the rain when do you ever feel numb not 'till the end of our days
