3. Elder Misanthropy (2:34)
Wisdom infinite held tightly in my grasp
My sword one thousand battles strong
Ageless I remain beyond the reach of death indebted by my soul
I have witnessed the birthing of your faith
The tribulations, the driving of the stake
So slowly this immortal coil unwinds
Until the end the end of fucking time
The blood of the ancients idols burning through my veins
The blood of gods man's never known.
I am the one who cannot die,
I am the the killer for all time,
Seeds of infinite hate I've sown,
I walk the earth enshrouded in its darkness eclipsing I claim the flesh of man
Ageless I remain with vengeance on my breath revolted by the meek
I have witnessed the birthing of your faith
The tribulations the driving of the stake
So slowly this immortal coil unwinds
This crumbing world has become mine
I've seen the creation of this world
And I'll see it all reduced to ash
In the blink of a sunken eye
I see one hundred winters pass
My blessing, my curse
Perpetually I'm damned to earth
Of a soul I am bereft
Forever dying to be dead
Slipping through centuries untouched by human love
Void of the simple pleasures that human life provides
Forever bound I lie in wait undying and insane
My sword one thousand battles strong
Ageless I remain beyond the reach of death indebted by my soul
I have witnessed the birthing of your faith
The tribulations, the driving of the stake
So slowly this immortal coil unwinds
Until the end the end of fucking time
The blood of the ancients idols burning through my veins
The blood of gods man's never known.
I am the one who cannot die,
I am the the killer for all time,
Seeds of infinite hate I've sown,
I walk the earth enshrouded in its darkness eclipsing I claim the flesh of man
Ageless I remain with vengeance on my breath revolted by the meek
I have witnessed the birthing of your faith
The tribulations the driving of the stake
So slowly this immortal coil unwinds
This crumbing world has become mine
I've seen the creation of this world
And I'll see it all reduced to ash
In the blink of a sunken eye
I see one hundred winters pass
My blessing, my curse
Perpetually I'm damned to earth
Of a soul I am bereft
Forever dying to be dead
Slipping through centuries untouched by human love
Void of the simple pleasures that human life provides
Forever bound I lie in wait undying and insane
