State of Decay

from In The Company of Snakes by False Witness

/

lyrics

No sword or shield can stop me
Fuck your iron will
Cloaked in shadow waiting
I'll cut you down in stone
Here I stand among these
Hopeful heroes left to rot
A captive audience
To applaud my merciless onslaught

For all that are dead
For those they left behind
We seek revenge
Ready to conquer, willing to die

Gaze into my eyes
A monument of life
Built upon the dead inside
I am not to be trifled with
Forever encased in a statuesque
State of decay

The path is clear
This is my destiny
Chosen by the gods
I'll end her tyranny
Into the serpent's den to face her stone-cold glare
The path before me reeks of failure
But I must prevail

I will prevail

Gaze into my eyes
A monument of life
Built upon the dead inside
I am not to be trifled with
Forever encased in a statuesque
State of decay

Eyes as cold as the grave
Bring death's embrace
Hunter and prey
Come face to face

Gaze into my reflection
Face your final reckoning
As my blade dissolves your life
I am not to be trifled with
Forever enshrined in a statuesque
Heroic display

I'll leave your hellish corpse to rot in a desecrated state of decay
