Shogun lyrics

Won't walk the Earth a specter

Won't hold my tongue from lashing out

This is my writ of honor

Drawn by the blood that I have shed

The beasts will soon assemble

Conjoining in their putrid flesh

Their hearts don't beat desire

They pump violence and poison

Flesh opens up, blood's retreating

Flesh opens up, blood's retreating

Death's embracing, all is ending

Death's embracing, all is ending

Time will not heal all of your pain

I cannot wait for it all to come crashing

Down

The monsters walk among us

Leeching the blood out from what's good

Infecting at transmission

Swallowing innocence from life

Our time has come to stand forth

The wretched womb from which they feed

Behold the loathsome demons

Send them into the hell they made

Flesh opens up, blood's retreating

Flesh opens up, blood's retreating

Death's embracing, all is ending

Death's embracing, all is ending

Time will not heal all of your pain

I cannot wait for it all to come crashing

Down on your face, ripping your veins out

Your insides win and kill you from within

And the seas will rise as serpents

Spawned from the mouth of Earth's surface

Soon the skies will fall fast, burning

Open wide and eat the suffering

The pulse is now quickening

Softly, it's painstaking

Look within to calm the storm

Raging inside the form

There's no turning back

For I'm witness to the changing

Take all you have brought to sacrifice

For you will lose much more

If you succeed in this battle

You still will lose so much more

solo: MKH

The pulse is now quickening

Softly, it's painstaking

Look within to calm the storm

Raging inside the form

There's no turning back

For I'm witness to the changing

Take all you have brought to sacrifice

For you will lose much more

If you succeed in this battle

You still will lose so much more

Time has come to face all evil

Now the seas rise up as serpents

Spawned from the mouth of Earth's surface

As the skies now fall fast burning

Open wide and face the suffering

solo: CKB

The inferno spews out hell's horde

Casting the flames upon our world

As death eclipses all the light

We make our last stand, ‘til death: fight

solo: MKH

Time will not heal all of your pain

I cannot wait for it all to come crashing

Time will not heal all of your pain

I cannot wait for it all to come crashing

Down on your face, ripping your veins out

Your insides win and kill you from within
