Forbidden Sanctuary

Borders touch the sky’s
Haven for the snakes
Appointed by the gods
To seal the sanctuary

The streets are paved with gold
On the outside we decay
A window to the underworld
Kings and creatures block the way
Deep within the walls
The time has come to conquer

I see
Serpents they wait in the grass
Orchestrating the end of time
Pathway leads to a vigorous land
Find our way through the sanctuary gates

No asylum
Human sacrifice
The pillars fall
An end in sight

Leaving our home
Destined to fall
A distant memory of hope
Die by the sword
Or be reborn

Our sacred tree
Stripped of its bark
Rots to the core
Rooted in bile

Enter the gates
Obtain the light
Free the enslaved
End of the night
