Blind-folded and gagged, stood waiting
With the whole world: my firing squad
At the edge of the world I'm faced out
Staring the sun right in the eye
Vultures circle above, hyenas mocking the kill
Excrement drooling down their chins
Atop the cliffs I look down, into the starving Hell-mouth
The rabid foam crashes hard on its teeth

Their mouth's salivate
Fantasizing my gruesome ending
This world looks down upon
A man who can stand on his own two feet

As they're feeding their guns: "ready, aim"
They say I'll live, if I die for their cause
Living under the rule of fellow Cro-Magnon fool
They fear who leads and will kill to stay still

Their mouth's salivate
Fantasizing my gruesome ending
This world looks down upon
A man who can stand on his own two feet

Without eating from their claws
Life feels like Hell should
this Hell's so cold
Pull another knife out
Stick it with the rest of them
When my back is full
Turn me around to face it
Such melancholy, burning the stars from skies
As we melt, drowning inside their bloodied eyes
Hope is ravaged, running from lacerations
Sob so heavily, we choke, then we die
solo: CKB
solo: MKH

Die...
Life feels quite like Hell should
But this Hell's so cold
Pull another knife out
Stick it with rest of them
When my back is full
Turn me around to face it
Sob so heavily, we choke, then we die

TO BATTLE!!

Excellent.

I'm glad Matt's doing lyrics like this again. The Crusade had good lyrics but I felt Ember To Inferno and Ascendancy had more time spend on them.
Obviously The Crusade was recorded incredibly quickly so Matt probably didn't have as much time to throw something mind blowing together.

But these certainly shit on the previous albums lyrical content.
