At the Gates
Daggers of Black Haze
[Verse 1]
Masked in merciful weakness
A tribute of ritual prey
The frozen surface cracks
Dressed in iconic grace
Bottomless the void veiled in smoke
Floods the pit of dreams
The martyrdom of perfection
A phantom construction dead

[Verse 2]
The anesthesia of repetition
Let monotony and isolation reign
Will out persistence fade like daggers
Daggers of black haze

[Verse 3]
Mute now, the anthems and dogmas
Cynicism reproduced
The reliefs watch unseen
In winding and rigid shapes
An ideology solidified
The fragments lost in time
From within inaccessible walls
Their elitism starves us blind
[Bridge]
Unending eyes
They watch unseen
Starving for themselves in me

[Verse 4]
Masked in merciful weakness
A tribute of ritual prey
The frozen surface cracks
Mute now, the anthems and dogmas
Cynicism reproduced
The reliefs watch unseen

[Outro]
Will out persistence fade like daggers
Daggers of black haze
Daggers of black haze
Daggers of black haze
