Ophidian Memory - This Is Not Your Grave

I cast a shadow
And in it's wake
Left are the ashes of those caught in its gaze
No sign of warning
None left to tell
That faith was just a mask
To open up your inner selves
Powers seditious
And powers beyond light
Were used to show
These weakened creatures fear and might
Lo and behold
Subsequence unfold
The greatest tragedy that the world has ever known
Breathing
Feeling
Seeing
All just taken For granted
Until they're ripped
Out of our lifeless hands
Bleeding
Pleading
Seething
All just forced and then ravaged
Until they've dug
Deep into our own souls
Where you lay
You will stay
But this is not your grave
Come to pray
Then Turn away
Cause this is not your grave
Erode yourself with haste
Existence such a waste
They'll be none left to save
And this is not your grave
I must strike you down
Return into the ground
I find your kind so brave
But this will never be your grave
Your Light falls
New Life calls
How long I've waited patiently
To see you grieve insatiably
You've done so well to pray to me
Here's your reward for zealotry
A form that no one else can be
Birthed to destroy humanity's lands
And lead them straight to my grasp
As you perpetuate collapse
There is no rest for a god
Who seeks that which is unbound
By the text, eternal power in your soul is found
I saw hordes of demons
Crawling forwards
Towards the burning
Fields of sorrow
Come tomorrow
None will be here
What remains is
All but lost
Where you lay
You will stay
But this is not your grave
Come to pray
Then turn away
Cause this is not your grave
Erode yourself with haste
Existence such a waste
They'll be none left to save
And this is not your grave
I must show you how
To make the humans bow
You will die without shame
But this will never be your grave
Your grave
