Erebus - The Amenta

And West once more

Beyond swirling of spitting seas

Past immense gates of bloody iron

Trapped, the animal bites through limbs in steel teeth

The human succumbs, meekly

And they have souls?

Shall we discuss boulders?

Slick with tears or blood

Or a flaming wheel

Bearing some screaming wreck

It will always return, for the weak

Of course

We need not bow to the choking shroud

(The shroud of Erebus)

Souls as bronze anvil, fell nine days

18 from heaven to crash on cold rock

When did we begin feeding on that lie

When did we accept our own cages

We need not bow down to the choking shroud

The shroud of Erebus

Why a life snuffled out in darkness?

Why trudge towards a disappearance?

No boulders or flaming wheels

Shall we talk of crawling chaos?

They are your chains.

Not mine

Learn strength, worms

I will not sink to your level

A nine day journey to darkness

Ah, Nyx, close your womb

Your children are heavy
