The Lust I Seek - Anno Pandemonia Lyrics

[Pt I: Upon the Dying]

Locked within this cedar's glare
Eating my own lion's share
Observing their lives from above
Restless be my wicked soul
Tempted by your witching glow
Abandoned through your anarchy

World in flames, reign of pain
Wasted land by divine hand
Dying smiles, long lost cries
Facing down the dying crown

Blessed by my soul that took the pain
Blessed by my lust that betrayed me
Blessed by my hear that petrified
Cursed by my god who crucified me

Thus death overtakes and swallows
Nothing remains the same

Lay us down, deep down here
Amongst these ruins
Lay us down, deep down here
Amongst dead flowers
And let us sleep eternally
Upon the dying
Oh let us sleep eternally
Upon the dying

World in flames, reign of pain
Wasted land by divine hand
Dying smiles, long lost cries
Facing down the dying crown

[Part II: Ocularis Infernum]

Thousand tears from bleeding eyes
Witness how weak mankind dies
No alpha race to reign supreme
No new messiah to set us free

Now my eyes are open
And my heart is broken
For what I have seen
Should have never been

Look deep into my red, glowing eyes
And tell me, what do you see?
From long slumber demon freed?
Crying god at my feet?
Demi-god in darkness? Icon of sin?
Antichrist? This war within?
See the end of humanity
Witness the glorious rise
Of vampiric tyranny
Vampiric tyranny!
