Elegy II: Devise letra

Desolate, a sea of rubble and debris
They've come to avenge their burning lands
Desecrate, the city crumbles under their feet
The pestilent forage of all who remain
Nevertheless, this headlong struggle for supremacy
Persists throughout our history
From ancient ages to modern times
These untold atrocities have amassed

Permeating the ground
The soil soaks up their blood
Divest this reaping hand
Two alphas cannot share the fruits of existence

Treacherous tales unfold as the undying hour
Of bloodshed reaps and sows the weary and the weak
Powers of new blood now play God with maniacal ease
They shall enslave all
They shall enslave all

So, we sing ourselves to sleep
When the strong overtake the weak
The cities burn, the bridges bend
Now, we lay our heads to rest
So, we sing ourselves to sleep
When the strong overtake the weak
The cities burn, the bridges bend
Now, we lay our heads to rest

The winds of change oust the inept
Powers come and go, a fool's
Existence subject to their terms
Loss roams on neglected
Some eyes have not seen a day
Spared of loss, litany
Anguishing pain, sterile of reasoning

Hopeless, it's hopeless
Trying to outwit the colossal construct of life itself
No matter where you are in this world
You'll always have what they want

Defaced human creations
Memoirs of fallen cultures blanket the blood-red ground

Defaced human creations
Memoirs of fallen cultures
