Through towering pines and freezing mists
I venture along paths carved by cursed feet
The air is ice and the moon is rising higher
I’ve lost my soul in a quest for pyrrhic vengeance
I will see the earth rid of their kind
Shapeshifting beasts with carnivorous desires
I will see the earth rid of their kind
The shadows of their decrepit dwelling rise in the distance
The ground is frozen, the spires are rising higher
My steed’s breaths rise in clouds of crystal fog
With every step I draw closer to Death
With every thought I drift further from God
I will feed the earth with their tainted blood
I will fete the crows on their putrid flesh
I exist only to kill those who kill
The air is ice and the moon is rising higher
I’ve abandoned love in a quest of maddening hate
I will see the earth rid of their kind
I will never step feeding my blade

Lupine Blood
06:11

Death bringer, low to the earth, in silence tread beneath moonlit boughs
Each frozen breath drifts like smoke from a funeral pyre
A grim shadow of ancient cunning lurking within the trees
A wanderer of sanguinary volition
“With Cain go wander through the shade of night, and never show thy head by day nor light”
With newfound strength and ancient hate, I dismantle the arrogant vestiges of man
Fang and claw emulate the dagger and scythe of Abel’s demise
Bloodline of the wolf flows through my veins, I continue the work of my sire
From the gushing wound of the slain secondborn I drench my maw in the crimson fountainhead
With tooth and nail I am the harbinger of mankind’s decline
Infernal hatred smolders within
Eternal dreaming of a world devoid of living man
To return humanity to the bosom of the void - the purpose of this lupine form
I fall upon them silently from out the frigid midnight mist
I take their flesh longingly within my jaws and clench
Dragging them kicking and screaming, one by one, into the grave
The euphony of the wind and the wild howl raised in defiance of creation
In defiance of hope
In supplication for total death
O’ mother Luna, bless this offering
My vitriolic lunacy brings forth the change I seek
O’ father Qayin, bless this bloodletting
With your half-dead voice I howl from the highest peak

Charging heedless of life and limb
Up a slope strewn with human debris
I face my death with certainty
I face my killers with vitriol and scorn
Their flashing eyes staring down at me
Their snapping jaws tearing at my body
The moon laughing coldly overhead
And when I meet Death this night
I will know I died bravely
I will know I died taking my foes with me
The mocking moon staring down at me
Their razored claws tearing at my body
‘Neath these decrepit silhouettes
I know now I died for nothing
