Colossi - Hypergiant

Upon

A desolate throne

With vampyric greed

I suck all the marrow from bone

King

Of all that I see

I crush with great cruelty

Those who would stand against me

Crush with great cruelty those who would stand against me

The cities run red with the blood of the billions

The tempest howls it’s bitter chill

Heavy hangs the head that bears it’s swollen crown

But the collar is heavier still

Gilded plastic cages with ceilings of glass

Frame all-encompassing lie

The nectar is gone and all recourse is lost

Now we must fight or we die

Quake

As death rains from the sky

Steel wings borne of hatred

Black hearts fuelled by fire

Black painted spectres of fury and fire

Consume the black blood of the Earth

Skeletal hand of the feeble of conscience

Ensure that their screams go unheard

The mold has been set, cast the pieces in motion

Now crawl neath the yoke of our greed

The faceless have thrived on our sweat and our torment

Enslaved to our ignorant creed

Quake

As death rains from the sky

Steel wings borne of hatred

Black hearts fuelled by fire

Gone

An epoch cast in stone

Break the bonds of our serfdom

Seed the land with their bones

Tear our kings from their thrones!

Shatter the shadow of Crassus!

Bring the Colossi down!

Chew off the chains of the plutocrat!

We make the future our own!
