Vestiges Lyrics

Past the barren land of hope
Covered in white, smouldering ashes
Human remains across roads, seas and skies

Desolate landscapes of forgotten cities
Burn on the altar once extolled
Treacherous agents hiding in plain sight
Awaiting their time to thrust the stake

Crawling on their knees
Hiding from watchful eyes
No hope, no cure, no future
For the damned

Like parasites, feasting on their own
Gnawed to the bone

Vultures circle the impending dead
Feeding on their desperation

Like starving leeches, drinking their blood
Sucked dry, bled and hung

Corpses circle your fading life
Feasting on your decaying flesh
Remnants of forgotten undead

Desolate landscapes of forgotten cities
Burn on the altar once extolled
Treacherous agents hiding in plain sight
Awaiting their time to thrust the stake

No hope, no cure, no future on the vulture watch
