Inheritor of a Dying World - Nightbringer

Inheritor of a dying world

Wanderer in the wild darkness

Enter now this shadowed path

The affliction of Saturnus grips the heart

In leaden chains

Inherit a world of dust!

Here is no solace, no earth-born respite

For those who bear the serpent’s mark

O companion of the fetid tomb

Foul specter, of the greedy grave

Inheritor of a dying world

Enter now this shadowed path

To seek the light

Dost thou find hope in works of mortality?

Art thou awed by matter’s seeming might?

Behold!

The fruition of long ages toil

A paradise for fools!

The earth aswarm

With maggot man and tottering in ruin!

The gates of death swing wide in fateful glory

Greeting the throngs of pallid life’s abortion

The affliction of Saturnus grips the heart

In leaden chains

Inherit a world of dust!

Here is no solace, no earth-born respite

For those who bear the serpent’s mark

Inheritor of a dying world

Inheritor of a dying world

Arise, and greet the dawning light of Phosphoros
