lyrics

Skeletal hands reach out to offer death
The plague foretold in the prophet's dying breath
The stench of decay on the fourth part of the Earth
On the wings of the storm...
The spreading death, it taints your blood
You shed your final tears with certainty
The cancer grows, it's mankind's final years
The father of filth has come to set you free

Corrupted flesh and the stench of rotting lives
Scouring the skin and burning out the eyes
Break the seal as the madman prophesised
Saved from the sword to die of pestilence
You cannot halt the tide of plague
The crumbling ashes of humanity
The searing pain, the agony
THE AGONY!

Suffer, weakened
The blight of decay it rots your bones
Infection, destruction
The mouth starts to bleed and the breath grows short

Skeletal hands reach out to offer death
The plague manifest in your painful final breath
The stench of decay on the fourth part of the Earth
On the wings of the storm...
Writhing in your misery
On the corpses of your family
Darkness of death comes finally
