lyrics

VANGUARD OF DESPAIR

In my discontent
With the blood and tears of men
I confronted the prophet
Demanding answers

And he replied
I predict not the storms
Nor fire bleeding from mountains

But I knew of their imminence

You will weep
Drink deep from the fountain
Until your ruin comes

I remember home
Treacherous stair-stepped path
And as my hope died
Magic abandoned me

Now discordant winds
Blow me through firelight
My age ending

Witness this sobering dawn

You will weep
Drink deep from the fountain
Until your ruin comes

Antiqui colant antiquum dierum
Quo fata ferunt

Wicked gray plumes
And apocalypse upon us
The vanguard of despair
I tread toward the inevitable

Dirt and dried tears
Nothing matters anymore
World reduced to charred memories

My last inconsequential steps
So I weep
As I drink from the fountain
I am in ruins

And now forsaken
The fountain dried and crumbling
Prophecy come to be
I will thirst for my last days
