When the first rays of sunshine kissed the barren sands Wastelands of desolation, nothing grew in the lands The Cascades remained dead for a time immemorial A sea of solitude, until the gods awoke They shaped the realm and became territorial Its inhabitants grew as bloodlines emerged Through greed and dark rituals, the rot began to surge The sacrifices they made were all in vain As they killed their own kin, the sky blackened above The crops withered and died and mountains crumbled in its wake The royal family wanted something not theirs to take The rivers ran dry and the lands are now dead As a punishment from the gods for leading them astray Feed the rot Its origin forgotten, its purpose fulfilled Feed the rot And join the song singing everlasting Feed the rot Its origins forgotten, its purpose fulfilled Feed the rot And join the song singing everlasting Nadir the all-father created his children divine Gave them all a purpose from mountains to sky And for eons they remained in unity But Adonia grew envious, so foolishly She told a priest of Ceios to sacrifice a child Harum's daughter Ria, by Nethos' dagger defiled An act of violence so mighty, the gods fell down And from the corpse of Harum's daughter, the rot began to grow Feed the rot And join the song singing everlasting Feed the rot Its origins forgotten, its purpose fulfilled Feed the rot And join the song singing everlasting Feed the rot Its origins forgotten, its purpose fulfilled Feed the rot And join the song singing everlasting Feed the rot Its origins forgotten, everlasting Harum and Nethos waged war against each other And in their weakened states, Adonia attacked her brothers And changed their natures into darkness and rot A new dawn was born with Adonia as overlord Pieces of unity rained from the sky Vortex crystals came crashing down Power from the gods in physical form And in the deepest darkness the Keeper of the Deep was born (It consumes, it concludes, it awaits) (It consumes, it concludes, it awaits) It consumes, it concludes, it awaits!
