Forged Doctrine

from Edifice by Heresiarch

/

lyrics

Alone and unbowed
Before the shifting horrors
Myopic eyes hunt ravenous
For the hollow sacrifice

Cruel edifice demands flesh
Without reason, without desire
Stave off the privation
Metaphysical cannibalism

Abolition of spirit
Obfuscation of truth
Divide, maximise disharmony
An age of quarrel beckons

Demonstrable subjugation
Grand imposition of force
Path of most resistance
An affront to nature

Spiritual transgression
Character wounded and judged
Zealotry clutched in pallid paws
Principles negated without conscience

Iniquitous regime
Wholly callous
Humanity butchered
Extinction denies reincarnation

Icon violated
Wrought iron cruciform, transfigured
Bred to suffer in chains
Obeisance supplants discipline

Intangible decline, old ways perish

Command for violence
Civility displaced
Regression deposes the tender-hearted

Weakness pervades, of mind, body and essence
Man seeks comfort in failed philosophy and doctrine
Dependent, parasitic begging
Trodden beneath hierarchy

Few stood intransigent
Stolid on the path
Warrior of the over-way
Atop the swarming rats
Seized the hammer
And forged the doctrine of overcoming
