Residual Blight Songtext
von Kriegsmaschine

I alone have known all shades of the horror
I am the pit without sun, where blind beasts dwell
I am the revenant at the very bottom of the source
Never to grow weary
Running on doubt
Dead thoughts, dead movements, dead ideals, dead desires
Beneath this world there is another, built of bone and decay
Grey hell
Dry
Motionless
Upon even rows of downfall Methodized loss
Inherent ruin
Residual blight
For these gates need to be opened
For this shell needs to be broken
Ether guerilla
All hail the alpha fallen
Dead words, dead drives, dead passions, dead urges, dead dreams
As the world above is shrinking, the one below thrives
Cinder springs
Ashen horizon

The sarcastic grinning of gargoyles
The refuge among scattered remains
The temples of iron and concrete
The great death
The silence


The roaring depths of insight
The maze of severance
The golden throne, abandoned
The agony
The strife
The penance
I alone have known all shades of the horror
I alone have seen the rays of lost grace
Residual blight
A sunless pit to crawl in
Ether guerilla
All hail the alpha fallen
