Ensepulchre - Thy Shepherd

Rays of unlight pierce the burning sky Illuminating
Steaming piles of filth and rotting flesh
All that remains
That which was once so mighty and so strong Reduced to ash
Shadows cast in the Likenesses of All that used to be!
Civilization perpetually On the edge of reason For eternity

Cattle can't be told they're lions
Neither can electric sheep
Let them think they're getting somewhere
Let them see the Lies we keep

Progress keeps the Beasts in order
Progress keeps the Beasts in line
Let them fight their Little battles
Let them think They have the time

Screams whisper curses Through the rubble In the dark
Tragic broken voices Of souls long torn apart Heed not their warnings
Their conscience led astray
Mired in subjugation Breeding ignorance and shame

Aimless blind bewilderment
Shameless minds belligerent
The rod and the staff, thy comfort
Fear be thy shepherd

Whispers tell the stories Of what they were afraid
Dismal black illusions That we're keeping them enslaved
Poison, their home, Their every precious breath Prison, their minds, Their lives until death

Aimless blind bewilderment Shameless minds belligerent The rod and the staff, thy comfort Fear be thy shepherd

Rays of unlight pierce the burning sky
Illuminating
steaming piles of filth and rotting flesh
All that remains
What was once so mighty and so strong Reduced to ash
Shadows cast in the Likenesses of All that used to be!
Civilization perpetually On the edge of reason For eternity

Aimless blind bewilderment Shameless minds belligerent The rod and the staff, thy comfort Fear be thy shepherd
