[Intro]
For chaos spreads around the world we walk
The pain of life succeeds the beating of broken hearts

[Verse 1]
An umbral shroud cloaks the shimmers of life that once burned in the hearts of man
The grasp of death, the grand eradication
Their pleas, irrelevant
Swine, writhe beneath the candlelight
For I, the pestilent, dine upon the resonance of your cries
Tonight, a celebrant dies as these grounds are brought to life
The wheels of fate thus turned by sacrifice

[Verse 2]
We cast these spells of plague
Quake this rotted earth
Tear the veil of death and bring upon this glorious rebirth
In awe, enthralled, we gaze
Crack this tainted dirt
Pull the strings of the afterlife with haste, for soon the dead shall churn
Incantations that were born of raw unholiness
A fear unheard of forced upon all that lie beneath the sky
Grim, they cry as as all the stars align

[Chorus 1]
All shall hear as the banshee cries
An omen of grim fate, she sings a song of death
[Verse 3]
This earthly thrall flayed into shreds
Altar like an abattoir
Harnessing the essence of life, they will rise with rotten hearts
Drones, they swarm tonight
A legion lead by the architect of fate, a tyrant amongst the light
Diverge the spirit from body
Speak the tainted tongues of the ancients
As they claw, they rise from the soil, their rotten stench is blown forth by capricious winds

[Breakdown 1]
Grand scale hemomantic onslaught
Snare the conscious
Swallow the earth

[Chorus 2]
As the banshee cries, the wheels of fate are turned
Oh, heed the other side
For, now thine time is nigh at last

Carrion piled like mountains
A grove consecrated by bloodshed
Trampled by the might of the wicked
The black arcane stole fate with it's legions

[Breakdown 2]
Oh, night mother, I beckon your gaze
I've come to reap the skies of light
Night mother, I grasp at your stars for I will take them as mine
[Chorus 2]
As the banshee cries, the wheels of fate are turned
Oh, heed the other side
For, now thine time is nigh at last
