Father I know the gods have all gone away
But I will remain to hold up the sun
The darkened sky, omens of our fate
The end of this horrid cycle
Hollowing further losing my mind
Only the heat of the flame can restore what's left behind
Another undead led by the serpent
Seeker of kings, a lie for which to repent
More for the pyre extending the age again
Charred husks left as remnants of the dying world
The scaled lord has hidden his children
Given them wretched spawn to revere
We'll rebel, their number among us
We will stand united anew
Dearest daughter, where did you go
The light's gone out, but I'll stay
As the darkened sun
Awaiting your return since you've gone away
Here I lie hidden from the sun
Waiting to be devoured by the slime of the dark
Here I lie hidden from the sun
At the mercy of sinners come for my soul
Here I lie hidden from the sun
Waiting to be devoured by the slime of the dark
Father I stand the lone god among us
I will remain your darkening son
Hiding behind your grand illusion
Their prayers will all fail when I'm finally lost
I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive
never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel. Metallurgical Fire
