Sunless Rise - Lethargy Lyrics

The scent-laden garden
This city once was
Is buried in ruins for ages
Below the ocean
But even drowned
The sacred fire burns

The spirit of the high priest speaks
Tells the story of the rise and fall
Of the Empire's unearthly Fathers
The Keepers they were called
"The Keepers gave us knowledge and skills
Order and peace were kept
But like rats inside the City's landfills
The agents of Chaos crept"

Before the last thread
Is finally snapped
Our world's not dead yet
But it's too late to adapt

"Hooked on euphoric poisons
That transform bodies and minds
Those of us who were hooked
Slowly started to turn into fiends"
And those who stood against
Gathered to fight the Chaos back
But to keep the rest of the world fenced
They had to plan a suicide attack
The only way to make the invaders stop
Was to cleanse the planet of the plague
Until no life was left atop
And so everything went black

To restore life after all have died
The priest have led the chosen four
Into that Siberian cave
To put them in lethargy
When they've managed to disrupt
The balance of the terrestrial poles
Then the catastrophe started
The Empire, like all life, was lost

We're ruled by inhuman savages - again
Racing into the void with the blind at the helm
Led by those who are driven by greed
Into the void at a murderous speed

Hanging on a thread
Ready to fall into void
But we're not dead yet
Not yet destroyed

Now head to the North of Siberia
Where Chaos is unleashed
Through the gates of Inferno
We're all doomed if you're late
