Gravemind Lyrics

The abyss

Has opened again

To join the tired chant

As we lift

Voice in unison

Call plague upon the land

The abyss

Has opened again

To a world scattered like ants

As we lift

Wings in unison

Blot out the dawn of man

Autonomy had so long led us astray

To wander 'til we were extinct

Intuition, then, to instinct gave way

Our lives, our purpose now succinct

No longer, from then on, would we be enslaved

By these ambitions we called king

Our knees worn to the marrow, we continued to pray

Forgetting what it means to think

Our bodies are many, our mind is one

And we hunger for what keeps you alive

Our ascension will eclipse the rising sun

And through your sacrifice, your famine, we thrive

The abyss

Has opened again

To join the tired chant

As we lift

Voice in unison

Call plague upon the land

By his guidance, by his hand

We'll blot out the dawn of man

By his guidance, by his hand

We'll blot out the dawn of man

By the will to which our minds are the throne

We'll work, always, to ruin the place we call home

Satisfy the hunger that we could never call our own

Offerings so willingly and so often made

Amounting only to a single piece

Of all the sacrifice through which the price is paid

Our blood communion for a thief

No longer, from then on, would we be the same

Our kind resigned to take its leave

To crawl along empty horizons we razed

Forgetting all we once achieved

Our bodies are many, our mind is one

A plague upon the world by which we're conceived

Our fall will echo for ages to come

Always unheard in a space left empty

Our bodies are many, our mind is one

A parasite whose host has nothing left to eat

We are the famine by which worlds are undone

The abyss

Has opened again

To join the tired chant

As we lift

Voice in unison

Call plague upon the land

The abyss

Has opened again

To a world scattered like ants

As we lift

Wings in unison

Blot out the dawn of man
