Death at Your Side Fortuitous genesis educated and protected eradicated empathy groomed by greed, god primary Displaying at an early age a malice towards life Apathetic, stolid while instigating strife Appraisal of all other life removed from equations "Infiltrate these black souls, an effortless invasion" At the expense of others invincible domain was built inconspicuous adversary pernicious mercenary Traitor to the benefit of man Murdering life and liberty Destroying hope for families To protect god primary Disdain and hate for other life directs decisions made Elation as spirits crush and helplessness pervades Grotesque wealth leeched from all their beaten carcass at the shrine "Betrayed, dismayed, you shall not evade me, you treacherous swine!" "Steered your vessel, you slaughtered for me" You rode with death at your side "Destroyed life's progress with your hatred and greed" You lived with death at your side "Through that black heart, such glorious suffering" You'll die with death at your side "Payment dealt through eternal torturing" Eternity with death at your side! You rode with death at your side You lived with death at your side You'll die with death at your side

"Every part of the earth, every hemisphere, every continent, exhibits the same phenomenon. There has, therefore, been a succession of variations in the economy of organic nature. The various catastrophes which have distributed the strata, have given rise to numerous shiftings of this continental basin. It is of much importance to mark, that these repeated irruptions and retreats of the sea have neither been slow nor gradual; On the contrary, most of the catastrophes ... have been sudden." Earth-Fire Inundation Destroyers Walls of ocean water miles high stampede through the lands soon forgotten bombarding wind shreds flesh and bone Sea of white hot liquid fire Arising through new cracks in the earth Blanketing cities, they are just grains of salt Legends in the making, the myths of tomorrow Earth-Fire Inundation Destroyers Sudden revolutions of the surface of the earth the great population regulator, cycles true as with any re-birth magnetic and electrical structures, their order is not maintained nature's great eradicators wipe clean this slate a mere trace of life remains "This was no ordinary extinction of a vague geological period which fizzled to an uncertain end. This death was catastrophic and all inclusive. What caused the death of millions of beings, the corpus delicti in this mystery may be found almost anywhere. The bodies of the victims are everywhere… Muck pits filled with evidence of universal death. A picture of quick extinction. Life torn and twisted as though by a cosmic hand in a godly rage."

This was the day they burned This was the day of reckoning Anger and hatred churned As the flames sought out everyone The saturated greed the insatiable need For everything violation of our being Spend their life destroying Hate everything Corruption of our souls Formation of young minds Our Everything Segregate their own Their chosen power throne Above Everything! This was the day they burned This was the day of reckoning This was the day they learned The flames will consume every one of them The lies that have been told The truth that they withhold Trust nothing Malignant are their souls Internal crusted mold They Feel nothing The power they exert the undoing of your world Care for nothing You are useless, leeching pawns Today you witnessed your last dawn You are Nothing! Strung up in their cages like frightened beasts abused Anticipating their final painful doom As the Beast and his flames begin to swell The raucous crowd cheers, watching them dragged to hell Flames spread far and wide Nothing safe from their mistake The summounded beast, arise! A massive winged three headed snake The Day They Burned The Day They Burned The Day They Burned Blistering the skin, boiling the blood Slowly cooking in their cage, a death too generous Pleading for the end of their miserable life This vile source responsible for all of mankind's strife The Day They Burned The Day They Burned The Day They Burned As a final act to start the world anew A devouring inferno continues to consume The final sight, the last glimpse of life Witnessing the great beast roar and scorch all in his sight This was the Day They Burned

about

Wings of Dahak Dallas, Texas

Azhi Dahaka is a powerful Druj created by the spirit of destruction, a three headed dragon which brought ruin to earth. Dahak, whose wings blot out the sky, took over the earthly throne and he brought misery, hunger, thirst, old age and death, mourning and lamentation, excessive heat and cold, and intermingling of demons and men. The music here is created with this spirit in heart and mind. ... more
