[Intro] (Instrumental Solo) [Verse 1] The sky turns black with ash and smoke A giant rises from the choke Of burning cities below its feet Where death and fire violently meet [Pre-Chorus] Red lightning cracks the air in two There is no place left to run to The ground shakes under iron weight We stand before our final fate [Chorus] Behold the skull of ancient dread Rising from the riverbed Of souls consumed by endless war Knocking at hell’s heavy door [Verse 2] Its ribs are cages for the lost No mercy here, no matter cost The storm obeys its hollow gaze Setting the world ablaze [Bridge] Thunder rolls like drums of war Echoing through the castle floor We are small beneath the bone King upon a throne of stone [Solo] (Instrumental Solo) [Chorus] Behold the skull of ancient dread Rising from the riverbed Of souls consumed by endless war Knocking at hell’s heavy door [Outro] The lightning fades but heat remains Bound by fiery, rusted chains Silence falls on broken lands Death holds us in its giant hands
