Under Blackened Skies - Hollow Tyrant Lyrics

You promised us eternity
And you said that this would all be fine

Liars

You promised us eternity
Saying this would all be fine
Life was always limitless
Not some thing to be defined
We must consume all
So we are told
The system is what keeps us safe
Sheltered from the madness of your minds

Imagine what might happen if
The mantle breaks
We saw you for what you truly are
The defilers of the earth

Can't you see
Life itself will ever endure
But thanks to you
Hollow tyrants
Ours will not be there
You've made a world where children are martyred as soon as they are born
Sacrificed to a machine betraying the many for the sake of the few

Altruism in name
And you tell us it is kindnesses?
Horrors inflicted daily
Hidden by collective blindness
Though each act of your mercy
Is more loathsome than the last
One questions remains now
When do you say enough now?

Remember that a people are
Not their rulers

Consumption must have consequence and no you won't be warned

Can't you see
Life itself will ever endure
But thanks to you
Hollow tyrants
Ours will not be there
You've made a world where children are martyred as soon as they are born.
Sacrificed to a machine devouring the many for the sake of the few

Now we know
That you truly are

Unnatural
Impious

This foul cult of fanatics driving us to our end

Can't you see
Life itself will ever endure
But thanks to you
Hollow tyrants
Ours will not be there
You've made a world where children are martyred as soon as they are born
Sacrificed to a machine devouring the many for the sake of the few

Dreadful
Abhorrent
Loathsome
Depraved
Foul
