Red Nails (For the Pillar of Death) Lyrics

Far from every caravan
Guarded by a dragon's scorn
In the desert's silver waste
Of time and space forlorn

Sleep thy walls
The ghosts of the past they scream
Tolkemec, master of the pit
Tascela, your wishes are command to me!
Speak the word and I shall kill!

Labyrinth of bitter jade
Xuchotl was thy name
Valeria was by my side
For plunder and the fame

It's war eternal, genocide
All Xotalane must die, must die
Let them feed the rack
The worms shall abide

Take their heads
Tear out their eyes
Slit their throats
Truncate their lives
One for each man
A sorrow of ages
Red Nails For the Pillar of Death

Take their heads
Tear out their eyes
Slit their throats
Truncate their lives and
We fight, we cry
We falter, we die
Sharp were the nails
For the Pillar of Death
