"The Stairwell" lyrics

Destined for death
A being never suspected by man
Inclined to believe in a single power, each of malevolent grandeur
Now, peer into the eyes of the devil
Mesmerized, do you see the flame's reside?

Legions flock out of the corpse
The daemons burst forth
Armed at the flesh by nail and thorn
Aeons of primordial desire
Now awakened by an offering of fire
This shall be the end
No mortal could predetermine this inevitable extinction

Added fodder to the pile
Deemed for me to feast
Filthy and sub-servant, worth less than the dirt beneath your feet
Given understanding

Damn the souls to burn in the chambers of Hell
While the integument provides for the stairwell
All shall be deceived
Received by the hands of suffering

All shall be deceived
Received by the hands of suffering

The true king will soon crush Him underneath His wrath
The grace of your lord is not found in death

Now fall to your knees
Scream - it will not save you
Forsaken, mistaken
Devoured by the blackening of the sun

Kill
A being never suspected by man
Inclined to believe in a single power, each of malevolent grandeur
Now, peer into the eyes of the devil
Mesmerized, do you see the flame's reside?

Released upon the world
The massacre inaugurates
Torn at the flesh by tooth and nail
Corpses pile, they accumulate
Denounced as mortar for the ultimate structure
This shall be the end
No mortal could predetermine this inevitable extinction
Forsaken, mistaken
Hark his demand

I've been waiting for this day in darkness
Wondering what I will say to the one who has forsaken me, the one who has cast me astray
You favor a failed creation
Only fear brings them back to contrition
Forgiving them for the sins they commit
By damning me to a bottomless pit
Mercy
I will show you the mercy that you showed me
None
Murder the father and black out the sun

Black Star - silencing the reign of mortal life
Engulfing the Earth's surface in fire and blood
A Stairwell breaching the veil of Heaven
