lyrics

Verse
Pestilence and violence, the future so bright
The shackles that bind us ensnare us tight
Dark age returns, future foregone
Inquisition of innocent, from many culled to one

The Men on the hill who speak for the dead
The priests of the law cursed ancients once said
The slaves of the past are slaves of today
Once freed from this clan must return to obey

Chorus
No lessons learned
Shackled by the dead
The future held in chains
Captives of the
Past to blame
The ways never change
The means stay the same
Captives of the past

Verse

We thought us enlightened, the dawn of the day
The fires of wisdom, that would lead our way
The path consumed, the darkness engulf
Benighted in ignorance, clamps the maw of the wolf

The pyres of furor, devour our future
Flashbacks of horror, the specter of torture
Dragged to the past, our torments reborn
The hours strike backwards, the present is torn

Verse
The eye of the storm, its center with calm
Its winds have returned and destruction to come
The tongue of the other, the womb of the mother
These cells the masters watch forever

Like ghosts to observe all anguish and strife
Trapped on this Earth, but taken from life
Fading and Nameless, now whispers our cries
Lost in the Tides, on time's shores we will die
