lyrics

What was unearthed was not of this world
Unnatural formation of stone and flesh
Warm to the touch, peculiar shape
A sort of grotesque beauty

The abnormal sphere gave a beckoning call
Only heard by men in their sleep

The black hymn of the fiend within
Made man into beast, and beast into man

From the vessel it burst, an inhuman being

Silence fell, and by her gaze were enslaved
men by the thousands
By her radiance, they fell to their knees
Made misshapen, and reduced to fiends

From her womb, sprang disease
A plague of the soul
The sun forever sets

We are the doom of all worlds
We unleashed the primordial truth
the scope of what was to come
Beyond comprehension

Locust queen, daughter of storms
She comes to lay her claim
Abyssal mother, bringer of ruin

She is the eater of worlds
harbinger of endless desert
By her hand shall the spheres fall
Into the abyss which spawned her

Tomb of Sa'ir

I'm a big fan of The Faceless middle two albums and when I saw Lyle Cooper was on this album I knew I needed to check it out. I bought the discography almost instantly, reminds me a little of The Faceless and a bit more of Fallujah who I also adore. Well worth the money, Support these great Musicians! dragonslayer8228
