The Behest of Serpents - Cripple the Divine

Slaves to their master
Their torturer and captor
Kith and kin
Limb from limb
Kingdom built from flaying skin
Deep in the shadows
A small resistance grows
Ancient tells of
Magic spells
Anything to end this hell
Humanity, a withered population
Embraced an unknown evil to avoid annihilation
To the darkness they have turned
The left hand path to their return
With ritual and dagger nigh
Regicide
Place their trust in the unknown
Their only hope to quell the throne
Watch as the life leaves from his eyes
The sun and moon align
To cripple the divine
He takes his final breaths
As the daggers pierce his chest
The sun and moon align
To cripple the divine
He takes his final breaths
As the daggers pierce his chest
As the tyrant's lungs collapse
His majesty's last laugh
You've woken the planet's heart
My death is just the start
Behold the truth
You've always been slaves
There is no hope
Begin the end of days
Not a world, but a god
An ancient being from beyond
All life inhabited will die
Planetwide
The spell wrought what was foretold
A prophesy from ancient scrolls
The Earth has woken from inside
Human race quelled by great deception
A desperate endeavor for a feeble insurrection
As the ground begins to quake
Their spirits finally break
Humanity transcends
The world is at its end
