Root of the Mountain

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Stooped, now the wraith, more shadow than flesh Once mighty hews lie sunken in chest Spectral hoar frost spat on breath Pulse ebbs, yet, still lord of death A silent tongue whispers tumors in head Bending will of war-dogs led [Verse 2] To glorious carnage armies were fed Leech to thrombosis, nations were bled World quailed in terror, stricken with fear Parents slew children as juggernaut drew near [Verse 3] Beneath vast crush of crag Entombed in gut of molten slag Archon, king cursed to live As regent in Abyss of eldritch Necropolis [Verse 4] Stalking caverns, gargantuan scope A revenant sits on his throne Emperor infernal in city of Bone And shattered stone Shattered stone [Outro] At world's edge, mighty range Cuts through the clouds, impaling heaven Follow fissures down, behold: The root of the mountain
