The Court is risen from the bowels of a wilted village flooded in quarrel Beneath the trees breathes the blood pact to reclaim our soil Indoctrinated warfare amongst the rats set forth by fraudulent monarchy Shall cease to breathe a sunset Atop steel structures rains phosphor as the false gods are hunted The oath remains fragmented until proclaimed overseers feed the worms May we harvest thine melted flesh and drink the wines that spill from their open throats May we harvest thine melted flesh and drink the wines that spill from their open throats Beware the Court of Owls, whomst watch beyond time Ruling from a shadowed perch, behind granite and lime They watch you at your hearth, they watch you in your bed Speak not a whispered word about them or they shall send the Talon for your head The Court is risen from the bowels of a wilted village flooded in quarrel Beneath the trees breathes the blood pact to reclaim our soil Indoctrinated warfare amongst the rats Atop steel structures rains phosphor as the false gods are hunted The oath remains fragmented until proclaimed overseers feed the worms May we harvest thine melted flesh Indescribable creatures tear away at the tendons and nerves Leaving the pile of gristle and cruor to the vultures Bleeding dry the corpses of the populace Spilling wrists to fill the trenches Split truths scatter like rats Restlessly flying to rain death Split the mothers from their children Carve their bones into dust that withers in the wind Hear the masses cry as their home is reduced to ash for the new world to be planted over Bound in solitude Nocturnal knights rule a world in ruin with feather and claw Silent deaths and forgotten loss Flight without fear The end of everything is near A fitting grave for the death of man In moonless night they soar beyond sight waiting for humanity's demise I dream of the day when their wings carry us away A death in the family avenged Nocturnal knights rule a world in ruin with feather and claw Silent deaths and forgotten loss Flight without fear The end of everything is near A fitting grave for the death of man In moonless night they soar beyond sight waiting for humanity's demise I dream of the day when their wings carry us away A death in the family avenged
