Píseň: The Lord Of Mortal Pestilence

Interpret:
Anathema
Album:
An Iliad Of Woes
Storm-lord, the Dreaded One 
Poison of our worlds 
In times of darkness, of death and decay 
he grasps dominion all over 
His stench hovers as shame 
in the house of fraticide 


An impressive depravity of a cadaverous epiphany 
A profane blasphemy of the darkest atrocity 


Welcome me, mortal beings 
to a world a cry of fear 
Incursions to evil 
shattered are your dreams 
My breath, a torrid wind 
of immortal pestilence 
heaves torment, pain and anguish 
suffer in your silence 


Chaos, no salvation 
misery, no redemption 
Twisted minds hold the key 
Benevolence, I pray for thee 


Drowned in fear, shrouded in black 
Mourning eternally in a spiritual lethargy 


Every beat of his heart 
is a death-toll chiming in a mind 
As chimes grow stronger 
the earth shudders in his wake 
His final lament is a 
requiem to the Gods of Darkness 
All deep contempt is a 
blasphemous sacrilege to his name
