Axis Of Perdition - Reflections of the Underdark lyrics

[Lyrics: Test Subject MGB]

Join me here where the stark trees whirl their shadows in the nuclear winds

Under bloated, acid-stained clouds collapsing in upon themselves

I have clambered through the chains that mask my prison to witness

The effigies of dead earth that symbolise your gods are crumbling

I saw how toxic and poisoned life became in that stench-ridden dark

I am the first of its spawn to crawl distorted and free out of the filth

Where the shadows wove a veil for that which slithers through charnel warrens

Where your herd means nothing in awe of our ravenous hive

Devour, blind and twitching young of the chain-linked shadows....

The feeding frenzy ends when nightmare propagates a soul

Now we revel in the secretive confluence of abominations

A face stretched to accommodate its malice

Devouring the grotesque dancers with its eyes

Scribing its name in the pit of excrescence with malformed hands

Learning how to writhe inside its messy skin grafts

Eating towards the surface in a foul swathe of dripping air

Malignant one, skin ripping the world

A distorted crown of bones is worn as a blindfold

By the contorted avatar, trembling in excitement

Slug-like and repellent in undeserved splendour

Consummate priest of the void betrayed by eloquence

Devour, blind and twitching young of the chain-linked

screen....the shadows....

He...chaos that crawls spider-like through its abyss....
