Fall of the Reign

TEN DESCENDANTS GONE
AS PAWNS OF GREED
THE PRIMAL SEED PASSED ON
TO BLIGHT WE BREED

AND VIRTUES LEFT BEHIND
WHAT PRICE UNPAID
MERE SHADOWS OF MANKIND
CONSIGNED TO FADE

UNTIL WE SEVER THE CHAIN
FOR ALL WE LOST IN VAIN
WE SERVE A DARK DESIRE
KEEP CRAWLING BACK TO THE FIRE

SEVER THE CHAIN
ONLY OUR FAULTS REMAIN
TO SEE OUR WORLD SURVIVE
WE ARE THE LAST ALIVE
TO BRING THE FALL OF THE REIGN

MALICE WE DISGUISE
IN BLAZE OF PRIDE
THE SINS WE NORMALIZE
WHAT CARNAGE WE ABIDE

THE VILE WE DEIFY
EXEMPLARS OF THE AGE
REFLECTIONS WE DENY
WE TURN THE PAGE

UNTIL WE SEVER THE CHAIN
FOR ALL WE LOST IN VAIN
WE SERVE A DARK DESIRE
KEEP CRAWLING BACK TO THE FIRE

SEVER THE CHAIN
ONLY OUR FAULTS REMAIN
TO SEE OUR WORLD SURVIVE
WE ARE THE LAST ALIVE
TO BRING THE FALL OF THE REIGN

BLOODLINE HANDED DOWN
UNTAMED AS WE BEGAN
TOO FRAIL TO BEAR THIS CROWN
THE FALLEN THRONE OF MAN

AS HUMAN HEARTS DEVOLVE
A HOUSE DECLINED
WITH FAILING WILL RESOLVE
TO END OUR KIND
AND SO WE SEVER THE CHAIN

TO BRING THE FALL OF THE REIGN
TO BRING THE FALL OF THE REIGN
