[Intro] (Wailing harmonized guitar riff over frantic drums) [Verse 1] The sun is a hammer on a rusted plain I am the fever, I am the strain I smell the weakness like a coming rain You can't outrun the certain pain [Pre-Chorus] The vultures circle... they know your name... This broken land claims its toll again... [Chorus] DUST AND DECAY! A BURNING SKY! I AM THE REASON THE WEAK DIE! NO SHADE TO FIND, NO MERCY HERE! I AM THE END OF ALL YOUR FEAR! [Verse 2] Your engine coughs its final breath A slow and unforgiving death The scorpion's kiss, the serpent's tooth I am the absolute, brutal truth [Guitar Solo] (Scorching, frenzied, melodic solo) [Bridge] No angel comes to take your hand In this godless, ruined land The metal screams, the flesh gives way Another trophy for the day [Final Chorus] DUST AND DECAY! A BURNING SKY! I AM THE REASON THE WEAK DIE! NO SHADE TO FIND, NO MERCY HERE! I AM THE END! OF! ALL! YOUR! FEAR! [Outro] (Guitar feedback fades) Dust... and decay...
