about

Bandcamp only allows up to 291mb per track, and this was a few dozen over. I had considered splitting them up like this anyway, but then I would've moved Interlude to the end of Gutenberg, because I still needed it to be 9 tracks.

lyrics

Somebody once told me
All that glitters is not gold
Not everything ancient is old
You and me, we were born to breathe
The same air fills our lungs
of the older and the young

Finally, in front of us breathing gently
The devourer himself, the destructive spawn of hell
Serpentine, flesh scaly
Out of our nightmares, slumbering in its lair
How are we supposed to kill
Something bigger than our skill
Maybe this was a fool's errand after all

Burn with fire
Greedy desire
Wanton destruction
Wars and corpse production
Burn

Waking up
Our nemesis draws its breath
All I can see is pillars of smoke and falling coals
Mem'ry of a fallen time so long ago

Wouldn't you like it to see your family again?
I can take you to them, your life doesn't have to end
All you have to do is kill your fellow man
He doesn't deserve the life he wishes he could have

Run from its flames
Scurry from its hooves
Avert eyes from gaze
Be careful how it moves
Somebody save me
I can't do this by myself

What have you done?
You betrayer
You know he'll never keep his promise to you
I thought you were better than this
All I can do now is run from everything
The only thing I've ever done before
Now my only hope
My only dream
Summed up like this
Cavern collapse

Well it's been fun, but I'm afraid I've got to go
You've killed us all, still I want you to know
That we will rebuild it all
It's a cycle

Neverending cycle

Darkness betrays her
Devour my very soul
Poison consumes her
Your death will not make you whole
