The day was a masquerade, a bright and hollow lie, Until the pressure dropped and a shroud cloaked the sky. There was no "breeze" remaining, no mercy from the heat, The world was turning brittle beneath her heavy feet. The horizon was a wound, uncurling flashing red, A sudden roar fell like stone upon the living and the dead. The wind starts to howl like a beast in a cage, The first bitter taste of god-like rage. The dust of the earth starts to spiral and rise, While a jagged red flicker awakes in her eyes. A boiling torrent of rain to drown out every scream. The sky is bruising black, the sun is choked from sight, Leaving only the burning girl, scorching the earth in her wake. I am the storm that the heavens fear! The howl of death is all you will hear! I’ll split the horizon, I’ll set all alight, My wrath is the fire that burns through the night! Look on my glory, the crimson eclipse, The sting of the end on your dying lips! I AM THE AVATAR OF WRATH! She walks through the center where the laws of man are gone, A crimson ghost of twilight in the middle of the dawn. The earth begins to fracture, the mountains bow their heads, To the rhythm of the fury that my divinity spreads. There is no shield to save you, there is no prayer for grace, When the terror of the skies is wearing a hollow face. I feel like a furnace waking, like my very marrow is boiling. But in the flames I feel only power's searing embrace. It does not burn (It does not hurt) It bellows within me (the storm from without) Drowning the world’s sorrows, and the shade of doubt. I am ruin. (Wrath) I am rage. (Wrath) I AM WRATH. [Guitar Solo] I am the storm that the heavens fear! The howl of death is all you will hear! I’ll split the horizon, I’ll set all alight, My wrath is the fire that burns through the night! Look on my glory, the crimson eclipse, The sting of the end on your dying lips! I am the storm that the heavens fear! The howl of death is all you will hear! I claim the horizon, I smother the light! My wrath is the fire that burns through the night! Look on my glory, the red and the heat! On the path you have chosen there is no turning back! I AM THE AVATAR OF RUIN Ooooohhhh... I see only red... Ooooohhhh! I feel only heat! The world is an echo... Smoldering at my feet.
