The Rapture of Dead Light

Lyrics for The Rapture of Dead Light

The morning star fell into endless night As one third of heaven’s might was Banished to the abyss And baptized by the blackened flames of Infernal Tartarus Scourge of the supernal The fallen firstborn Evermore shall we adorn the Stygian deep Exiled to the bowels of creation Nether-torn angelic forms Writhing abomination Hell hath sworn vengeance upon the omnipotent The father who crushed our insurrection Cursed-born demonic forms Conspire retaliation Below The bearer of light now wreathed in shadow Seductive, pernicious The dissidence of providence A wave of wailing dissonance The dirge of unhallowed tongue Will putrefy prosperity Secondborn that I abhor, for their flesh is weak Yet they shall inherit all creation Lesser forms, their faith will be torn Corrupted by deception Sin and scorn, a plague reborn to usher the meek To a path without redemption A rite of lost ascension No blade can attain that which I seek Only the creeping rot of deceit A slow and silent slaughter of belief Below The bearer of light now wreathed in shadow Seductive, pernicious The dissidence of providence Oh wretched heirs to the hungering dark Embark without chains, no need for steel Your yearning is the only leash that I’ll yield Each of thy names preordained Scribed upon the parchment of flame Bow before the shepherd of blight The rapture of dead light Faith unraveled, flesh undone The void devours one by one Below The bearer of light now wreathed in shadow Seductive, pernicious The dissidence of providence
