lyrics

Collapse of hierarchy from the dawn of
Time by the epitome of furious deities
Hunter, dominator race broken and
Beaten into a feeble shell of what we once were by gods

Feral, these creatures that stake our claim
Slaughtering, gormandizing, brainwashing
Even with swift population decrease
Still, the truth eludes the unhinged dogmatic
Aragami gorge on all in their wake
Leaving only naught but plants to decay
Impervious to conventional means
They regenerate from wounds with alien biology

Organism, unknown origin
Fucking up the earth and beyond
Ecosystem devastated and paralyzed
Remnants of our species are spread
Far and wide, yet thin and effete
The only reason we still breathe at all is science

With the formulation of ordinance
The rancid ichor of aragami is fused with death machines
Infusing the warriors with the cells
That once made a monster will take up arms to seize retribution

Battling fiercely against hostiles
Bereft of compassion and empathy for survival
Rend their cells apart, masticate their core
The sole approach to complete vanquishing anathema

Baring fangs, blades and guns with fervor
Left with nowhere to run
With each victory attained, we too
Sustain more heavy losses
Humanity's progress is delayed
By a millennia
Due to the inescapable rage
Of primal carnage and might

Treachery lies in the heart of the aegis which once swore to propagate
Sacrificial insanity brainwashes new type to attempt murder
Silencing the altruistic warriors from uttering verity
Incubating a brand new god the seeds will bow to or be demolished

Gnashing our teeth against the flesh of the once invincible gods that have blighted and scorched the earth
Using their cadavers that never housed sentient souls to replenish weapons for defying the will of heaven
Building the walls with their skin, blood and bones to defend homosapiens from this purgatory
Are us soldiers that are inculcated with their depraved hides doomed to feel naught but indignation and an inner hell?

Singularity, non-divine being is born (Human form)
United flag of mankind, she'll quickly adorn (Yet not as an insult)
Consciousness, a shock, yet will soon be met with scorn (Exile)
Eaters of deadly idols, when aware, are torn (Ambivalent passion)

Demons sever and chew bodies
Crushed up, shattered bones and mangled skin denatured
Impaled, aflame, and corroded
Savage methods, god eaters are extirpated
Grievous torture, agonizing
Suffocating laggardly and losing reason
Deprivation of most senses
Except nervous stimulation, enhancing pain

Deceit is fully unveiled by the director of death
Bioweapons are going renegade to rescue
Anthropoid aragami fuses with harbinger of
Second apocalypse by force, but still, she will refuse to devour us

Gnashing our teeth against the flesh of the once invincible gods that have blighted and scorched the earth
Using their cadavers that never housed sentient souls to replenish weapons for defying the will of heaven
Building the walls with their skin, blood and bones to defend homosapiens from this purgatory
Are us soldiers that are inculcated with their depraved hides doomed to feel naught but indignation and an inner hell?
(Gnashing teeth against flesh of once invincible gods using our oracle imbued god arcs to reclaim what's left of earth
Securing every last trace of higher morality before we devolve and lose our final armaments ere our souls)

Annihilation... pending as two minds struggle in one body
Separation of... intertwined ideals is hence impossible
Decision is made... shell has elected mind of greater knowledge
Relegated to... orbital body of celestial nature

Collapse of hierarchy in Fenrir
Leader is what we swore to extinguish

Proselytized (Can't recover), damaged beyond repair as they cannot
Challenge beliefs (That are gripped tight) by the hearts of those who lack strong purpose

Baring fangs, blades and guns with fervor
Left with nowhere to run
With each victory attained, we too
Sustain more heavy losses
Humanity's progress is delayed
By a millennia
Due to the inescapable rage
Of primal carnage and might
Subjugation will not be our
Destiny, as we die (Freedom is paid in blood)
Autonomy cannot be attained
By vehement division
Perennial cycle of horror
Torrential sanguine floods (Eaters of Gods will ask)
What benevolent god would approve
Of the fate for suffering?
