Nothnegal - Decadence lyrics



Tracks



01. Salvation

The heat raging from the east
Raising the sea against its ancient foe
The oceans have risen
The sky no longer

What gives us protection
It gives us pain

Global catastrophe
Submerged lies all dry land
The change in the climate
The atmosphere unstable

To seek shelter from the blazing sun
To keep our hides warm against the cold of night
Survival of our race
Deny extinction
Hail the key for salvation

To prevent the destruction that befell the earth
And to sustain the children of mankind
Designed to restore our world
To its former greatness

To seek shelter from the blazing sun
To keep our hides warm against the cold of night
Survival of our race
Deny extinction
Hail the key for salvation

02. Claymore

Welcome to our hunting grounds

We hope you scream in fear and dread
Like stealthy predators
Hidden away from the sight of their pray
Stalking you

In the darkness when you're most vulnerable
At night when everything is still
We come out to hunt
Till you face extinction

To gather sustenance from the life forms on the surface
Like the silent breath of death
We creep oput from the shadows
We slice and dice through your ranks

Pile up bodies at our wake
Collecting ears to keep count of our kills

We mark our targets in stealth
Won't stop till the final blow is dealt

Our justice enforced
We are code-named Claymore
Our reward is return to blissful oblivion
And the quenching taste of dead finality

Drag back the carcasses
Back to the liar
Take out their brains
Increase our numbers with their loss

Drown out their waves
Replace them with our ideals
Turn them against their own kind

Our justice enforced
We are code-named Claymore
Our reward is return to blissful oblivion
And the quenching taste of dead finality

The link to our past we shall eradicate
With a searing touch their existance denied

Our justice enforced
We are code-named Claymore
Our reward is return to blissful oblivion
And the quenching taste of dead finality

03. Janus

Frozen sea
No heat from the sun
The air dry
Static storms all around

Icy tombs for those who seek to defy us
Rid yourself of the scum
The fuel cells of disaster

To stop the seeds of war
To prevent the apocalypse

They named it Janus
A new gateway for man
Ironic that the gateway
Led straight to hell

It was meant to cleanse the world
Of all its conflicts
To keep the peace
Of the sentient race

A pity that we were seen as a threat
The source of all wars lies in the human heart
Religion, riches and land
And of jealousy
We bring destruction
Unto ourselves

To stop the seed of war
To prevent the apocalypse

04. Decadence

The abhorrent taste, the stench of deceivers
The rancid cancer amongst the believers
Torrents of hope and lust for preseverance
We hunger for promise of deliverance

Brokers of decadence and chaos mongers
Seeding weakness, in stabilizing the habitat
Killing the smaller life forms
Degrading the buds for new beginning

Decay away!
Corrosion we will sustain!

They deny the world to heal its wounds
Our impending doom draws ever so near
Designated guardians of our world
Degenerated beyond a trace of redemption

The origins of the plan corrupted
Heroes of old have descended
New breeds of vigilantes erupted
The sacred oath to mother earth forgotten
Welcome to the realm of discord
Ever preserved the presence of fear

They deny the world to heal its wounds
Our impending doom draws ever so near
Designated guardians of our world
Degenerated beyond a trace of redemption

Set me free
Let me redeem humanity
Set me free
Set me free

Starved wretches we have become
The once proud human race now grovel
Our planet we have slowly destroyed
The masters now cower in the shadows of the machine

They deny the world to heal its wounds
Our impending doom draws ever so near
Designated guardians of our world
Degenerated beyond a trace of redemption

05. Armageddon

At the dawn of modern technology
The merciless pursuit for warfare
Leeching of the fluids of life
To create the perfect tool of death

Time has come
To explore in depth
Experiment with god's creations
We have yet to know how far we'll go
To bring about the end to us all

Raise fear, make war
Dismantle faith
Unleash death in the guise of machines
Their directive to doom our kind
And pave the way to annihilation

Like everything man has made
There's a weakness built to them
The risk of triggering emotion
And finally gone rogue

Raise fear, make war
Dismantle faith
Unleash death in the guise of machines
Their directive to doom our kind
And pave the way to annihilation

They thrive for the fear
Live in despair
Abandon all hope
Live in fear

The sole survivor of the fall
Caught an frozen spoil of war
Preserved in through time
Till the day it walks free

Raise fear, make war
Dismantle faith
Unleash death in the guise of machines
Their directive to doom our kind
And pave the way to annihilation

06. R.A.D.A.R

I have seen nothing but darkness
In their misleading guidance
the world they chose to rule
Whole generations they will lose

I welcome pain
As my soul they claim
I crave eternal rest
But now begins my quest

Screams of pain and cries of the haunted
Thrown liks waste with neglect
Their lives mean nothing at all
In the face of the hate we create

I've been blind to the horrors we breed
The anxiety we pose to our kind
In the name of the savior we claim to be
We're feeding the flames of a holocaust

They deny their guilt and the pain they have caused
Closed their minds to my calls
A rude awakening is what they really need
Even though it means my death

I've been blind to the horrors we breed
The anxiety we pose to our kind
In the name of the savior we claim to be
We're feeding the flames of a holocaust

I feel my life draining from me
Towards the light I soar
My peace is quick to evade me
As I'm brought back to this world

I've been blind to the horrors we breed
The anxiety we pose to our kind
In the name of the savior we claim to be
We're feeding the flames of a holocaust

07. Sins Of Our Creations

Observe the twisted tendrils of fate
Distorted, demeaning to what I believe
Like quicksand it sucks you in the more you struggle
Too tired to try, I resign to destiny

Hopeless and defeated I am left
Hungry for vengeance I am compelled
To grieve for the life misspent
To moan my loss in silence

The drive to excel has left me
I am but a shell of my former self
Too late for looking back
But not too late for regret

Wake me from this nightmare
Save me from the ghosts of past
Help me escape my inner demons
Spare me the sins of our creations

Wake me from this nightmare
Save me from the ghosts of past
Help me escape my inner demons
Spare me the sins of our creations

Open the doorway to the new age
Clash of titanic wills decay the world
Right before my eyes all I hoped for fails
Chaotic turn of events, decease with no cure

08. Singularity

Hounds of eternal night
Wretched, contaminated fleshlings
Serve the purpose
Which sustains us

Hear the calling
Heed the warnings
Reach out to gain immunity
Give us your souls, in return we offer immortality

Gaze into eternal glory
Seize your heresy
Join us to complete
The oneness which conects us all
Singularity

Hail the power
Feel the ecstasy devine
Feel no pain
Indulge in bliss
Reborn again
When you should've passed on
Programmed task

Gaze into eternal glory
Seize your heresy
Join us to complete
The oneness which conects us all
Singularity
