Dismissed by the masses No longer their master Miracles in vein It ends in disaster Encased in ice protracted death Once a God Now rotting flesh Dig the grave in icy earth Let us pray now lower the body Immortalized against your will An unwanted revival Is now your fate Pinned down by the neck O how’d you find yourself in this mess Nothing you can do to stop the process Attempts are futile You persist But no resolution Intent is misplaced No ones coming for you this time Now bow your heads Bow our heads Bow our heads Bow our heads (Now bow your heads) Bow our heads Bow our heads Bow our heads Bow our Dig the grave in icy earth Let us pray Now lower the body Immortalized against your will An unwanted revival Is now your fate Pinned down by the neck Nothing you can do to stop the process How’d you find yourself in this mess Frozen immurement An unwanted revival Is now your fate You won’t feel a single moment All the pain lies in your head Tonight’s the night that you fell prey To eternal involvement Frozen immurement You won’t feel a single moment Lay your head Count to ten You won’t make it Dug the grave We are ready For immurement You won’t feel a single moment All the pain lies in your head

Cannot distinguish Falling with no end in sight Fixated to my demons No longer in control Mind disengaged from body A general anesthesia Unsure if alive Or playing dead Is this rebirth Or beginning of the end Of the end Curators of our Underworld Drag me to Nadiric Depths I can only hear as I’m told Darkness shadows my sight Transformation awry No longer in control They keep dragging me dragging me (Dragging me) They keep they keep dragging me dragging me (Dragging me) They keep dragging me dragging me (Dragging me) They keep dragging dragging me dragging me Curators of our Underworld Drag me to Nadiric Depths I can only hear as I’m told Darkness shadows my sight Transformation awry No longer in control Death Death Show mercy on my soul My one regret Knowing I could have done right Unfit to rule Take my crown I beg Sacrifice my world For another chance Dark emperor Reconsider my fate Dark emperor Reconsider my fate As a pawn in your game Willingly I will play Bestow upon me The power to bring forth Our enemies Drained of their blood and courage Tomb of the living Oh to breathe again To be free again Free again Tear through my skin The only way out My word, my faith I’ll uphold to you Tear through my skin The only way out My word, my faith I’ll uphold to you My word, my faith I’ll uphold to you Dragged into Nadiric depths Bestow upon me The power to bring forth Our enemies Drained of their blood and courage

Shadows cast The world turns cold Shadows cast The world turns cold Depths of despair Cold grips of fate Existence debated Frozen in time Journey to hell A desolate space of my own Trapped Soul torn apart Demons surround With laughter like screams Am I lost in dream With flames so intense A Torturous path Silence becomes eerie As I’m thrust to chaos Suffering No mercy in sight Just torment and pain Journey to hell Relentless decay Life slips away Sealed in frost Where all is cold and lost Demons dance in the haze Eternal bliss As I’m Drawn to a void Darkness coils Forever bound to remain Forsaken by the heavens Murkgore passage

Back to the depths A place I know too well Faced these demons here before I’ll rise and I will quell In the darkest abyss I find myself once more Fate has dealt this twisted hand A cruel and wicked spell I will rise and break these chains I’ve faced these demons here before I’ll do it once more I’ve faced these demons here before I’ll do it once more I’ll do it once more Back to the depths I know all too well A place I thought I’d left behind I’ll draw my strength Echoes of screams They haunt my weary soul With each step I take In this despair Horrors that surround me I’ve conquered once And I’ll conquer still With scars to prove I may not know why I’m trapped inside But I’ll draw the strength I’ll conquer still With scars to prove I will do this myself Defy the dead before me I will do this myself I’ll conquer still Still In the darkest abyss I find myself once more A place I’d thought I left behind I’ll do it once more I’ve faced these demons before I’ll do it once more I’ve faced these demons before Fate has dealt this twisted hand A cruel and wicked spell Defy the dead before me I will do this myself I will do this myself Do this myself I’ll do it once more I’ve faced these demons, these demons before I’ll do it once more I’ve faced these demons, these demons before

As I am below So is the world above A rotting shell Of something that used to be In control Considered a god A source of hope now gone Beneath earthly decay I lie As I am below So is the world above Mother earth Consume my flesh Rot away Until I’m gone As I am below So is the world above So is the world above Above So is the world above Considered a god A source of hope now gone Beneath earthly decay I lie

Regained my senses I've hit oblivion Into the nothingness of my mind The spawn of Satan I’ve become realized For all the tragedies we commit Divine or divided For all the tragedies we commit Divine or divided No God on which to depend Sink yourself in the deep end No God on which to depend Sink yourself in the deep end No God on which to depend Sink yourself in the deep end No God on which to depend Sink yourself in the deep end No God on which to depend Sink yourself in the deep end Succumb to the real world Burn the scriptures binding you down We separate each and everyone Into doomed theories written to us from God We separate each and every Written to us Written to us We separate each and everyone God? If you're willing to understand Seek the freedom that doesn't take you away If you’re willing to understand
