Temple of Decay

[Instrumental intro] [Verse] In the temple of decay, where silence reigns supreme, The congregation of the damned, lost in a wicked dream, They chant their dirges to the void, their souls forever torn, In the abyss of their existence, where the light will never dawn. [Chorus] Oh, the faithful crawl on broken knees, shackled by their dread, Their prayers a twisted symphony to the demons they have fed, In the jaws of gods who thirst for blood, they offer up their pain, Their voices lost in agony, in the echoes of disdain. [Bridge] Beneath the shadowed spires, where the fallen weep and wail, Their hearts encased in iron chains, their spirits set to fail, In the catacombs of suffering, where redemption is a lie, They writhe in silent torment, beneath the blood-red sky. [Break for Instrumental] [Verse 2] They carve their sins into their flesh, a testament to despair, Their eyes aflame with madness, in the grip of darkened prayer, With every sacrifice, they sink deeper into the abyss, In the labyrinth of their torment, where sanity is remiss. [Guitar riff] [Verse 3] They build their altars from the bones of those they’ve slain, Their sanctuaries desecrated, in the name of ancient pain, With every curse they utter, another soul is lost, In the depths of their depravity, where innocence is tossed. [Chorus] Oh, the faithful crawl on broken knees, shackled by their dread, Their prayers a twisted symphony to the demons they have fed, In the jaws of gods who thirst for blood, they offer up their pain, Their voices lost in agony, in the echoes of disdain [Outro] So here they dwell, in the abyss of their own creation, Where darkness reigns eternal, and there is no salvation, In the void where nightmares breed, they bow before the throne, In the symphony of suffering, they are forever alone. [Instrumental outro] [End] of suffering, they are forever alone. [Instrumental outro] [End]
