Filaments of Armageddon Songtext

von Manticora

["In the Blazing Sunlight, the priest unveiled his horrid tale..."]

I travelled on through the swamplands, sailed up the river damp
To bring back the church from its state of oblivion
A mission to the land of the long gone retired tribe
The inbred people on the edge of the cleft
I crossed the lightning horrors of the burning forest
To face my unattainable holy task
A Hell alive, Armageddon, a violent energetic eruption
Of immense proportions

Domine Dirige Nos

Kept alive for eternity by this throbbing parasite
Distorting, numbing, mind reducing - Eternal life through this horrid growth

"Saying mass in my life's work - the awe striking chapel
- sweet communion, I'm at inner peace"
... to drive out this parasite by self inflicted non-lethal pain...
"I am eternal, immortal"
...I'm swirling in a vortex of the deepest agony...
...offered an eternity of mindless life...

I saw the wonder of a giant church carved into the moutainside
A descending path into the mystery of the labyrinthine worlds
Idolized and worshipped by the tribe of the short retard men
... I began praying to my God again

We walked into the tunnel mouth, eroded by elements
As darkness gave away to light brighter than thousand stars
I was embraced by the legendary avatar, (the creature of death)
In the illuminated glowing vaults

...I'll fight my immortality

Kept alive for eternity by this throbbing parasite
Distorting, numbing, mind reducing - Eternal life through this horrid growth
