Vesuvius Lyrics

The pyroclastic surge buries us all

As we burn alive we watch our city fall

Entombed by debris from hell

Forced out from my mortal shell

I watch as my kin turn to ash

Torn asunder from the blast

My people gone

Hades have mercy on us all

Toxic gasses start to pour down from the mountain

The people scream as we all try to flee

The plumes of smoke chasing after all life

Hope is lost as we all ignite

Burn

Civilization gone and wiped from the map

Everything I love taken with the thunderclap

A culture filled with complexity

All is swallowed in the volcanic sea

Deep and rich in it's history

All is swallowed in the volcanic sea

The pyroclastic surge buries us all

As we burn alive we watch our city fall

Entombed by debris from hell

Forced out from my mortal shell

I watch as my kin turn to ash

Torn asunder from the blast

My people gone

Hades have mercy on us all

Mt. Vesuvius has erupted and damned us

Such a tragedy

All has turned to dust

There is no time for fear when our death is so near

This will be our end

"It was so particularly violent that night

That it not only shook

But actually overturned

As it would seem

Everything about us"

This will be our end nothing left the people dead

I can't believe what I'm seeing

Is this punishment is this intervention

from the gods who've damned our well-being

This will be our end, nothing left, the people dead

I can't believe what I'm seeing

Is this punishment is this intervention

from the gods who've damned our well-being

Burn

Civilization gone and wiped from the map

Everything I love taken with the thunderclap

A culture filled with complexity

All is swallowed in the volcanic sea

Deep and rich in it's history

All is swallowed in the volcanic sea
