BLACK SEA DELUGE LYRICS

1. Cathedral

[feat. Mattheau Brewer]

These Cowards Awaken
To guard their dominion
Enslaved to the King
A living sacrifice
Raised to see no light
Known to no other face

He edges near with unsteady hands
Struggling to wield his blade
Advancing forth with reckless force
I witness his dismay

Sword and skin, my blade will know his blood tonight
Nearly scythed by his sword flashing forward
Mine finds its way beneath his flesh

He strikes, the worst has come
Fallen to my knees, he looks on in triumph
He did not see my sword go through his back

No longer will the bell toll
The King will surely know
I watch his eyes go blank
His body falls from my blade

[Bass Solo: Logan Stoll]
[Guitar Solo: Mattheau Brewer]
[Guitar Solo: Braedon Sutherland]

2. Encounter

I feel my fingers tremble
As it grows closer
I wait for a chance to escape
It prowls this tomb waiting for new prey

Once human, hope has all gone
Humanity has withered from behind its sunken eyes

As I wander through this nightmare
No thoughts cloud my mind
Kill or be killed
I must be the predator tonight

3. The Cleansing

Wasting our lives for this
Fighting a war for nothing
Are we all so mindless?
How can we cope with such catastrophe?

I will take the world by this hand
I can show you what it means to live
I will deliver you from blackness
If you look into the rapturous light

Blood is shed and bodies strewn
Across the battlefield
Sons and fathers die in vain
Now I will rise to be their shield

Lay waste to their towering castles
Set fire to these gates
Those who are innocent will escape the storm
And those who have sinned shall pay

With their lives

Fuck their meagre existence
They will be purged

[Guitar Solo: Sutherland]

I will take the world by this hand
I can show you what it means to live
I will deliver you from blackness
If you look into the rapturous light

[Guitar Solo: Gareth Baird]

4. Reflection

[Instrumental]

5. Clairvoyant

I've had enough of begging
For everything that I want
I'm sick of fighting
For what I've already earned
Dragged through the dirt
Silenced and hurt
When will this come to an end?

I shall reclaim what is mine
Just give her back to me, don't waste my time
I will reclaim her she's mine
No mercy for you fools who stand in line

Then I see her pale figure standing there before me
This can't be real
My eyes are bloodshot, my hands are shaking
What am I supposed to feel?

Take my hand or be forgotten, or wait
For the storm to take everything you loved
Come now rest in the chaos or wait
For the storm to take everything you love

You will be forgotten, you will be lost in the storm
The chaos was begotten, now dwell with your demons alone

I shall seek you dead or alive
I swear this will be the last time
Cannot forget you, you're trapped in my mind
I'm done with trying, I'm bringing you home

Take my hand or be forgotten, or wait
For the storm to take everything you loved
Come now rest in the chaos or wait
For the storm to take everything you love

You will be forgotten, you will be lost in the storm
The chaos was begotten, now dwell with your demons alone

She's not real
The flaw in her facade, you coward!
You drained the very spirit from her eyes
She lies
She calls my name with the voice of a wretched King

6. Throne Of Decay

He invokes the collision of nations
To abuse the crown with false intention
Those who stand above him
Live beneath his reign of terror

He is not royalty, he rots beneath the sky
he sits upon a throne he earned from spewing lies
He may be King but he will surely die a simple death
And I will be there till he dies with every gasping breath

The king is calling me to play his game of misery
Inside my mind I find that there's a place that he won't see
Show your fucking face, I don't really think you will defy your fate

You won't look me in the eyes when you call my name
I will see you sit upon the throne of decay!

[Guitar Solo: Sutherland]
[Guitar Solo: Baird]

You couldn't run this kingdom
If you felt further than yourself
The might of the world is against you
I'll have your head if it's the last thing I do

You won't look me in the eyes when you call my name
I will see you sit upon the throne of decay

She sits where the king once did, I have seen the worst
My love once here with me, she does not speak a word!

You didn't have to take her from me, you will know my pain
it didn't have to end this way, now you will share the same fate

7. Relapse

[Instrumental]

8. The Finish

[feat. Connor Arbiter]

This hero begs for incision
He wanders aimlessly
His vision is no longer blinded by his majesty
I've taken everything and yet he still persists
Reduced him to nothing but he still fights for this

I see her face, I can feel her in my arms
I've never felt so close yet so far from her before
I've come such a long way
To lose my love before my eyes
To find a reason is to burden the sake of my life

A phantom follows him wherever he may go
The guilt eats him alive and scars start to show
Revenge won't bring him back
Although red is all he sees
One of us will die tonight
On that we can agree

On that we can agree

I see her face, I can feel her in my arms
I've never felt so close yet so far from her before
I've come such a long way
To lose my love before my eyes
But I know my face will be the last thing he sees this time

He looks to the sky in anguish
I can almost taste his hatred
A fire burns where only I can see
And he will spare no blood to get to me

[Guitar Solo: Sutherland]

Our eyes meet, there is no turning back
Not now, nor ever again
We made the choices that brought us here
We will pay in anger and fear
Forced to do this fucking dance of death
We cut away until there's nothing left
And with his last shred of dignity
He falls down and looks up at me

[Guitar Solo: Sutherland]
