SHADE EMPIRE LYRICS

1. Ruins

 
The giants holding world crumbled
and the blow beyond the stars
Froze the entire face of the Earth
The gateway opened and seismic waves
flushed the living
into the rivers of the Underworld
 
Floating in your own feces ha!
Is this the creature that was an image of their God?
 
These are the scorched steps of mankind – ruins!
This is travesty of life – ruins!
 
They are too weak to be godlike!
They are too weak to even fight back when given a chance to do so!
 
Behold the human agony in all its glory
Is this not what you have been waiting for
Is this not what you have been trying to foreseen
For as long as you have lived
 
These are the scorched steps of mankind – ruins!
This is travesty of life – ruins!
 
Are you willing to eat
the flesh of your fellow man
If not…
Then into to pit
You must crawl
and die!
 
It is time to arise
It is to conquer these ruins
 
Into the pit…
You must crawl…
Flesh will rotten…
Bones will turn to dust…
 
The giants holding this world crumbled
and the blow beyond the stars
Froze the entire face of the Earth
These are the scorched steps of mankind – ruins!
This is travesty of life – ruins!
 

2. Dawnless Days

And so it happened
Dawn ceased to exist
And darkness became the law
The fact that only few percent
of human population survived
is overwhelming
 
With a smile I greet this new world order
 
The true nature of things is starting to reveal its grin
To witness chaos in all its glory – feasting among the Earth
 
We are privileged
We are the riders of dawnless days
We are the chosen ones
We are the dead who will hunt down the living
We are the predators
We are the riders of dawnless days
 
Tress petrify
And seas have turned
Into drowning pools of life
Acid rains hammering down
Thunderstorms cast the only light
 
We are privileged
We are the riders of dawnless days
We are the chosen ones
We are the dead who will hunt down the living
We are the predators
We are the riders of dawnless days
 
These dawnless days will go on eternally
And the skies are not cleared
The rays of Sun cannot penetrate
Through the black horizon
 
There are some survivors
Hiding in these ruins
It is our mission to hunt them down
and make sure
that we are the only ones left
 
 

3. Until No Life Breeds

In vain they fight
They have fell from their throne
 
As the light faded from the horizon
The ones of the nocturne awake
Darkness grants them its blessing
And sends them out to hunt
 
Air is steaming as the horde leave its nest
Frost is covering the ground
All life shall be raped by the dark
 
As the resources expire
The only thing that keeps the last bits of human race going
Is pure instinct of survival
 
A herd of weaklings is lost in the ruins
And panic is starting to rise
The troops of decay smell their fear and are ready to strike
 
Air is steaming as the horde leave its nest
Frost is covering the ground
All life shall be raped by the dark
 
The scavenger of apocalypse
Will hunt you down
 
Until no life breeds
Until no life breeds
Until no life breeds
 
Behind the curtains of thorns
Far from the landscape of demise
 
Air freezes as the horde leaves the nest
All life shall be raped by the dark
 
 

4. Ash Statues

Fields, as far as the eye can see
Filled with human remains
Scorched to their feet
 
They were all praising the Sun
and this was their reward
Now they form the army of ash statues
 
Into the shadows you must flee
And whom ever can find a path there
Shall become the king!
 
And from that stone made domain
Shall the destiny of all remaining lives be made

5. Disembodiment

The killing fields have now gone quiet
And you are torn apart by the cold winds
What lies ahead behind the reapers grin?
A weight too heavy to be carried away
 
As I step through the black mirror
It is just a tiny step towards the chaos
Soon devouring cosmos
 
As Earth leaves behind new portals open
 
Am I trapped forever in this orbit of emptiness?
Will I ever assimilate
 
The more you suffer
The more you see
The more you give
The more you gain
The more you burn
The more you can take

6. Malicious Winds

This coldness goes straight to the bones
It is not from this world
It is not normal…
As if the entire planet was just waiting
For something to appear
From the bottomless darkness
Something to devour the remains of
Your solar system
 
The sky howls in a way
That there is no peace
During these starless nights
Only the eyes of the nocturne
Can be seen
They will hunt you down
One by one
 
He will arrive beyond space and time
 
Malicious winds
Carry my flesh
with your wings
To face the destroyer of worlds
Malicious winds
Show me how it all ends
 
From beyond space and time
He is coming
From the bottomless darkness
He will arrive
The traveler!

7. Traveler Of Unlight

Traveler of unlight
Tremble the cosmic order
Unleash the black beast
To the halls of golden temple
Bloom in rays of black Sun
 
From within the void
And from void within
Summon the starless skies
 
Hear the call of a dying race
Combine my voice
To your black stream of the dead
As I join without a second thought
The knowledge through aeons
Pierce my spine
 
Traveler of unlight
Tremble the cosmic order
Unleash the black beast
To the halls of golden temple
Bloom in rays of black Sun
 
My dreams of Saturn now come alive
As my flesh melts from my bones
This calming blackness…
At last my thoughts are clear
Towards the gateway
I travel beyond the veil
of cosmos
Into chaos
 
I abandon this weak flesh
To set my will free
 
Traveler of unlight
Tremble the cosmic order
Unleash the black beast
To the halls of golden temple
Bloom in rays of black Sun
 

8. Devolution

[Instrumental]

9. Slumbering Giant

Forgotten in the turns of time
Existence denied
A tamed beast tied up in chains that won’t last
Buried beneath the surface of this dying planet
Wandering in cosmic disharmony
Far beyond the structures of reality
 
There is no hope for your pitiful race
You cannot bury the old
I will arise
With joy I observe as your flame slowly suffocates
 
Observer under ice
A beast tied up in chains that won’t last
It’s time to purify the scum of this planet
Dying planet
 
Wandering beyond the structures of reality
 

10. Nomad

Deserts of ice to be crossed
Mountains of iron scrap to be climbed
To find a way through
Just to start it all over again
 
Kill – and you might live
Fall down – and you are done with
 
Limbo of death landscape is endless
And those still alive are your enemies
 
As a nomad you must hunt in wasteland
Abandon all humanity, forget the faces
 
Deserts of ice to be crossed
Mountains of iron scrap to be climbed
To find a way through
Just to start it all over again
 
Kill – and you might live
Fall down – and you are done with
 
Limbo of death landscape is endless
 
Unlike in war where you fight for a “greater cause”
Here you fight just for yourself
Just to live another day and wait
Until there’s nothing to be done
 
As a nomad you must hunt in wasteland
Abandon all humanity, forget the faces
Burn all emotions in stake of decay
 
To take another step towards the end
And feel more alive than before
Abandon all of humanity
Forget the faces
Burn all emotions in stake of decay
As a nomad you must hunt
Unlike in war where you fight for a greater cause
Here you fight just for yourself
Just to live another day and wait until
There’s nothing to be done
To take another step towards the end
And feel more alive than before

11. Omega Arcane
