Wolves of Rome

*Summoning forth the werewolves dormant underneath Latium, rise and reclaim the realm, restore the ancient Roman Empire*
Achtung Ancestors Lupine! Awake from your thousands year slumber
Rise from your tombs of dirt underneath the seven hills
I summon thee, howl and will towards power
Hear thy orders to subjugate, dominate and war supremacy
Wolves of Rome
Rise again
Cause might is right and with my lupine reich
I will conquer 'til the end
The frontier will be restored and stretch passed its golden standard
Dominion will be reinstated over those crude and primitive
Return us thy iron Latium, butcher and vanquish all resisters
Force the weak to submit like their forefathers before them
The red moon glows like a wound in the midnight dark
And our gods watch from their celestial constellations above
March onwards army of Romulus, thy first wolven king
The guiding light will shine so bright it'll blind the world until the end of man, until the cold earth sleeps
Wolves of Rome
Rip and tear
Cause might is right and with my lupine reich
I will usher in this new nightmare

The Dreaming God
05:20

*A malevolent ancient deity is awoken, harbouring a will to dominate all life*
Thunder and lightning split the sky, the ocean roars and thrashes
The earth shakes throughout the land, animals cower and hide
The return of a darkness is whispered throughout the kingdoms
Rumours of an awakening, of a name in barbarous tongue, thought forgotten
Dreaming god, spread your wings, a new dawn will rise
Dreaming god, take your flight, let us hear your cry
The ritual is complete, the chalice overfloweth with sacrifice
Praise be to this martyrdom, for the ancient god of the Wurms
Now shatter your marble chrysalis, flex thy muscles stiffened from slumber
Take to thy throne, cloak the world in your shadow, for an eternity to pass
Feast on the pallid flesh of man like ripened fruit
Assuage your thirst with mortal blood like wine
The weak will be conquered or crushed like rats
The strong will serve by your left hand, a devotion to divinity
The reign of the dreaming god has begun
Kneel down before the drainer of stars, swallower of the sun

*Cursing the legacy of Arminius / Hermann the traitor to Rome who orchestrated the ambush and massacre of three legions*
Wild eyes glow through the trees, a storm suffocates the sky
The forest is thick with impatient muffled cries
The legions march onwards with heavy ignorant steps
Oblivious to the vassal plotting their grizzly deaths
Arminius, treacherous leech, traitor to Rome, our Orcus you'll meet
Hermann, betrayer, leech, assembler of the tribes of death, drowning our lights reach.
The sons of Rome ambushed, a spite-fuelled massacre
Rained upon by tribesmen's spears, surrounded for slaughter
Iron tactics useless, Arminius attacks what he already knows
Three legions surrounded, suffering this fierce Germanic blow
The gilded eagle eroded, the roman standard lost
In the depths of Teutoburg, Rome's legions paid their cost
Slain within the woods, murdered in swamp and bog
Twenty thousand casualties in the forest fog
Brave men devoured, to appease a barbarous god
But in Teutoburg forest, their spirits remain, singing their frontier song

*Losing the war within my own mind*
Spat on, in the face of a constant mockery
Howling for armageddon
Sour soil filling body, spirit eroding, emptiness
The trumpets of redemption are blowing on deafened ears
Failing to summon the light
Barbed-wire nooses my throat
Tortured in trammels, I am thy own retribution
Falling on sword, no twelve labours of penance for me
A Sisyphus crushed by thy boulder
Rotting, let the vestiges of thy carrion
Be consumed by the vultures, by the worms
Let me be erased, forgotten, dust
