Tilea, in ancient times A city of dwarfs and men Built by older, wiser hands In the dawn of our world Prosperity, above and below In praise of the gods Shall rise the tower A monument to pierce the sky A task of generations stagnates Until comes forth A stranger clad in grey He asks just a single boon To see the tower complete What have we to lose? Come midnight The wind blew as parted clouds There stands the tower His dedication to the gods was there Gleaming cold in the moonlight But of the stranger there was no sign Chime, chime Thirteen times Strikes the great horned bell Lightning split the sky And thunder echoed the sound Morrslieb flashing bright An ominous silence fell Black, like ash, the rain came down Great stones cleft the heavens Newborns, hideously twisted Death amidst despair and disease Hulking vermin stalk the streets Feeding on the sick and weak Drowning screams in hideous chattering Born is the skavenswarm

Crumbling mountains cry out in pain Black skies weep for our excess graves The seas are clogged, the rivers drained Our lands are naked and full of shame In fume-induced dreams we stretch Spreading wings of feathers singed A blazing trail through skies that cringe At the sight of an ocean chemical green A grey existence Buried horizon In a shallow, filth-encrusted grave We buried our horizon No more shines the sun Through poison smog No more warms the sun Beneath sulphur rain In various hues of grey We breathe in waste, sludge Choking on the realization Our future is deprived of light No more shines the sun Through poison smog No more warms the sun Beneath sulphur rain Confined to the heat Of man-made machines A grey existence Below buried horizons Under a dead sky We fade out

Sanctimony 05:05
Unwilling victims Pay them off Silence the media Absolution is guaranteed Sinful creatures Servants so foul In his name Defile and conquer Molesters of both spirit and flesh Point your finger Who is to blame Deny all accusations Conceal your shame Bless their sins Assured of salvation Bless their sins And take them to heaven Sinful creatures Servants so foul In his name Defile and conquer Molesters of both spirit and flesh Sanctimonious miscreants Claim the souls of our children A relic of stagnation Living past its due date Long since time To bury this institution Bless their sins Assured of salvation Spare us the abuse of your holy servants Say you love us but still you Bless their sins Is it on earth as it is in heaven? Is it?

Phantom Sun 05:22
I will carve my hatred into your flesh A gospel preaching my loathing of you Sweet release in mutilated form How I crave thee My foe, my victim You are the effigy I burn Incite, agitate the fiend in my bones Compel to extinguish Snuff out all that you are Like spoken words of venom An utterance of doom With a dismissal, repealing the right of being So your existence ceased Odium inspire Hatred, spite and ire Beneath a setting phantom sun Declare animosity in ritual Your judgement, come
