Very cool mix and deep sound… well done!

Lyrics:

Pretend // That is all I have left
Prepare // For this first achievement
Preserve // The humanity inside
Predict // My deity's theft
And prevail // From the evil in movement
Prefer // Die in this war than hide

The rage in my veins // Will be all that remains
Looking for an answer // Any from my father
My internal war // Never known truce so far
Collect all the pieces // Before evil increases
You summoned me // In your life of beauty
And I come in grief // You're the key to my relief
I’ll be redeemed // From my sins and my fiends
You won’t be deceived // And you will forgive

He forced us // To quench his thirst
We'll remain enslaved // Until the last drop has spilled
He slayed us // Much more than he must
We'll remain his preys // If the people obeys
This new king // Who proclaimed himself
I must dethrone him // I must destroy him

Believers die // And I'm here waiting
Until the last time // To give up everything
Believers die // Always praying
Gave their whole life // To end without anything

The time is now // My turn has come
And I still don't know why // I must offer my own son
The end is near // On his kingdom I will spit
I must face my fears // I won't be a part of it

The others hide // And I'm here standing
Until the last time // I'll never stop fighting
The stranger smiles // And I'm here thinking
He might be the one // Who will finish everything

Take the lion away // Chase him night and day
Make him beg make him pay // This is our land
We're meant to stay

We are // Focused on the fires // And the darkness will not retire
Nemea // Needs a messiah // There is no king only lies
And yet I smile // The hero will soon // face the animal
Don't look behind // You're stronger than us // combined

And you will make fall // Submerge him in the shadow
The rain // Storm of millions arrows

Nothing // Will weak his vanity // But you'll have to try
Entering // The king's sanctuary // Please don't be shy

Give him more
Hear him roar

Facing him // The steel is sharp
Gigantic // The breath is calm
Nothing will be in vein // Nothing will end his reign
The king screams // And resonating
Majestic // Royal blood covers him
Nothing will remain // Nothing will stop them

Lyrics:

Hide // Wear the cloak stay obscure
The fog // Of your allies still the best
Slaughter // Satisfy your own pleasure
Corpses // Keep blooming around your nest

Hideous // Facing you will be the real torture
Vicious // All this scene is just a test
Blind // We will never feel secure
I hope // This chapter will be blessed

The snakes knot and drown // Legions fight for a crown

Estuaries of scales // Only one head must prevail

Imprisoned and tangled // Choose the one to strangle

Intermingled atrocity // That ever fought finality

Dying Is the art to become one with the infinite
The purest state of life

Hiding Is the art to become one with the emptiness The most useless state of life

The conundrum I face because of you Morphologic palindrome that's blurring my view
Plenteousness of possibilities at the gate
Like a blooming ivy you will suffocate 

Slice as much as the steel will permit me
I'm getting tired // But it's not me to decide

Cutting spines 'til the steel twists and bend
I'm getting weak // Hoping to abolish the bleak

Blurring my sight // Too many things to focus on
Feeling contrite // At the vacuity of my gestures
Such a delight // Too much rage to express
A new page to write // Maculated by the ruby fluid

I'll become insane // Running in circles forever
I'm not the one to blame // None of us will surrender Future fights will be in vein // My hopes are getting slender
I must break the chain // Even if I'm blinded by your splendor

Not by myself // The hissing is making me deaf
Help me my friend // On your presence my life depends

Burn cauterize the wounds
Incinerate be sure not to exclude

Oust his power from eruption Preclude it from the reconstruction

We've reached the twilight
All is over 
Hard to believe we've won the fight

The circle comes back around
The monster
Cannot offer another round

It has become an addiction
Just one more
That's all I need to cure my affliction

A new thirst appears I need to seal it Confine it

Your fangs fall into the lake
Purified
I promise we will all gather to the wake

The poison in your veins Leaking, flooding 
This will be all that remains

Your scales are scattered
They decorate
The roofs of the houses you burned

A new labor will appears I need to honor it Complete it
 No more word of glory The ending scene Of this never ending story

The noises suddenly ceased Martyrs Can finally rest in peace

Buried under my skin Reprisal A sentiment I try to hide

My deepest temptation
Being stranded
In this role of pure annihilation
