PROFUGUS MORTIS LYRICS

1. The Fallen

Here I stand, stained in red
Bodies lie all around
The battle lost, and lives the cost
Paid in full and then some

I look around this place, these hills
As children we once did play
Those were times of innocence
Now the dead, they own the place
And once was does not remain
Innocence has turned to pain

When death surrounds and lights not found
The fallen weep in misery,
My hand to theirs and theirs to mine
It's mine to give and them receive

Now stand my friend, it's not the end
Your cries have not gone unheard
New life you'll lead, new things you'll see
And fill your spirit with a new hope...

2. Arm Yourself

So arm yourself
When you think it's time to fight for what you think is right
Your wits won't dodge all the hits
The strength you possess won't always stand the test
Everyone has fallen to their knees
So now while you can, put on the full armour
And take your stand when your enemy is near
You won't be overcome with fear

Their attacks come swift so take your hits
But you'll stand once more
Don't let adversity and pain bring you down
At all times be ready, be brave
Friend or foe, no one will know until it's too late
Then you feel the knife is sliding deeper in your back

This world is a battleground
And their legions come to tear what we built down
With lies they'll try and some will fall
But all should heed this call

For those who destroy you will fall
You'll fall, you'll fall one day
For all the times that you preyed
On the weak and the poor it will add another chain

So arm yourself for all time
With truth and wisdom by your side
Honour those who honour you in return

3. Vile

Vile human, the world it weeps on your existence
At just the sight of you, my blood it boils
I see all that you do, I see the poison in you
But you know that few will stand tall in your way

Plant your seeds of evil deeds
Poison more minds, all that you find
Experts in greed, they take all they see
Destroying peace, corroding the innocent

Vile being, your heart is black and veins run cold
Love the wages of wickedness seducer

Your life hangs by threads

Fear is how we fall
The fear that we are not strong

4. The Darkest Hour

In times of darkness, fear and pain
All seems dark, unwavering, unchanged
The war is long, the end unseen
But, the darkest hour is just before dawn

Endure hardships as discipline to strengthen your heart
Stand tall and head strong, protect your light inside
It will guide your way

Be ready and waiting, this night it will not take you
Soon the dawn will come and we`ll be waiting here for you

5. Upon The Raging Storm

Your body's filled with fire
Your heart is filled with ice
You never cared for others
So you will die alone

You're walking all alone
You're running now through midnight's cold
They all will follow you until you die.

6. Majesty

I am but a servant defeated in battle
Fallen and weak, to the halls of my majesty I must go
What will be said? What punishment shall befall me?

I walk up the stone stairs to where the throne room lies
Fear surrounds me and tears they fall
At the sight of the doors brazen with gold

I walk into the hall and I approach the throne
And there he sits in glory, there sits my all
I kneel before his throne and I begin to cry
"I don't deserve your mercy, I deserve to die"
With all the mercy that I know, he looks me deep into my eyes
"You've not failed me, so walk in victory tonight"

Allegiance renewed, spirit reborn
I serve a master of mercy and grace

7. The Beauty Of This Form

I watch in wonder with racing heart and shaking hand
At the beauty of this form so delicate a creation
But at the same time fragile and weak
That all the eyes can see
The illusion of strength is quickly dispelled
As it's all destroyed with whisper and breath

Light and rain creation awake to touch with hand
And the pleasure it would bring
I am in awe of the beauty of this form
Not constraints in all it's shape and form
My flesh cries for it all
And with it all my flesh would die

8. Last Pain

I feel the blood running down my face
With a look in his eyes that screams demise
My life seems all but mine

Here I lie awaiting
My death is looming

The blade that he draws must spill more blood that's mine
For all that has passed I cannot help but ask:
"Why am I the one to die?"

I face this end alone

The touch of his blade against my flesh
Fills him with pleasure so dark it passes not his lips
With a swift move my end is signed
I can feel my very essence being drained
I can hear the whispers of the demons poisoning his mind:
"More blood," they say. "More lives."

9. Automne
