Lyrics
---------------------------------------

Verse 1:
Unsheathed
Trust into the void
To walk in the shadows
Of better men
Firstborn
The final chapter
Holding the means
To see hereafter
Not for power
Nor veneration
These benighted worlds
Condign only annihilation

Chorus:
The path of exaltation
To truths you wish you'd never known
Forever unforgiven
We hunt for those who fell
In the name of absolution
These fallen m ust be slain
For only though salvation
Can we redeem our shame

Verse 2:
When honour is torn down
And valour holds no place
With the power of suns
In the palm of our hands
Only vigilance prevails
Each contrition
Etched in blood
Clandestine our cloak
Tethered to our transgressions

“Repeat Chorus" 2nd Time

Interlude:
In the face of ruination
Our sins we must confine
As fire serves
To clear the soil
Only faith will
Seed these basis

“Repeat Chorus" 3rd Time
