A Betrayal Unforetold - Inferi

Planted are the seeds that will carry out the deeds

For the deity’s plot bestows knowledge to the slaves

And a path to be paved for his majesty to burn like coal

There is no escaping this horror

Drunken with a rage of his infidelity

A deity of black is set

The darkness has spawned, this cannot be undone

This blackened, wretched heart

Seeks nothing more than to devour

The pestilence of man resides in its final hour

Setting out to destroy the king

Forging creations with apostasy

The cloak of his vile malicious intent relies

On abundant gifts of wealth, prosperity and lies

Willingly deceived by the luxury received

And the taste of fleshly impure acts with filthy fallacies

There is no innocence to behold

Blinded by debauchery thoughtlessly extolled

Consumed by the fruits of wickedness

And deliverance of the soul

Entwined with a plot of treachery

A betrayal unforetold

Blasphemy, through the eyes of the one true architect

And the shepherd let them wander into exile

Penance and regret

The blackened, wretched one

Seeks nothing more than to devour

The pestilence of man resides in its final hour

A web of lies will be the gate for all the tragedy

To resonate inside the hearts of man and build an infantry

To rectify and over throw the king

(Lead: M. Low)

(Lead: M. Pugh)

Slaves to his plot and cravings will be

The foundation for his masterpiece

A gateway to time and space is his desire

To breach Heaven’s gates with unholy fire

(Lead: R. Santolla)

Sinister acts severed them from their salvation

And the paradise from which they came

For their inept existence has cursed them all as his slaves

Mere pawns of the agenda allow the nemesis to convey

Whispers in the ears of man, pure lies to seal their fate

This blackened, wretched heart

Seeks nothing more than to devour

The pestilence of man resides in its final hour
