"Red Goliath" lyrics

"Red Goliath"

The hunger drives me forward to hunt the red goliath
Vine and concrete fight around me
Conquering the violent land that we lived on
Before the limb of Leviticus came

Gone are the days that we thought we would see god
At the gate lifting up the ones who prayed
Faith turned to fear
When a spear from the sky drilled
Down into the first skull
Commandeering random bodies
Now in the calm of the sky ophidian recoil
We crawl along the ground we dominated
Left by its grace we can starve but we can't die
Immortal human vermin stranded by their curse of pride

The sky limb bred us a vile mammoth
The red one our only prey to hunt
I must kill and eat it
I must flay the body that I dug out from the ladder
Become the hunter

The hunger drives me forward to hunt the red goliath
Vine and concrete fight around me
Conquering the violent land that we lived on
Before the limb of Leviticus came

A bear's skull melded with vulture wings
Bison pelt and a panther spinal column
Apex with a thousand mouths
Riddled with tongues and eyes
Taken from land and sea
The ground breaks under its weight
Its network of throats echo death and decay
Through vine and concrete into the caves
The limb bred every animal that wasn't human into one

Flayed one lay before me
Howling out to the sky void the name I once held

Gone are the days that we thought we would see god
At the gate
Lifting up the ones who prayed
Faith turned to fear
When a spear from the sky drilled
Down into the first skull
Commandeering random bodies
Now in the calm of the sky ophidian recoil
We crawl along the ground we dominated
Left by its grace we can starve but we can't die
Immortal human vermin stranded by their curse of pride

The reborn
I know they are not human
The mimic replicates her voice to torture me
It begins the begging
Simulated desperation clawing at my starving body
Nail her feet into the ground
To beckon the abominant

Prey
Its many tongue shifting in ravenous malice
Engorged by the stench of the black fluid within the bait
In one last attempt
The bound desperate replicant
Begins reciting past intimate memories

The flayed one lay before me
Howling out to the sky void the name I once held
Rain down your salivation
Red one widen your jaws
Engulf and consume this our offering

I release the blade to decapitate
I swing a razor pendulum built out of vine and relic metal
Then down it came
One head of the beast
The rest ran away
I eat a mutant brain of dog and hawk and vomit up regret
I release the blade to decapitate
I swing a razor pendulum built out of vine and relic metal
Then down it came
One head of the beast
The rest ran away
I eat a mutant brain of dog and hawk and vomit up regret

The flayed one lay before me
Howling out to the sky void the name I once held
Rain down your salivation
Red one widen your jaws
Engulf and consume this our offering
