Текст песни Dark Imperium - StringStorm

Indivisible tensions lays thick throughout the air
Blanketed by it′s weight, it feel impossible to bear
On the steps of the pathway father unknowingly pawed
I'd one day hoped to follow but now I rue the day

As I approach his torn form, decaying like a corpse
Funeral atmosphere comparisons clouding every thought
There are no bereaved or mourners as should be the due course
In the wake of all the sacrifice witnessed from the catafalque

You have sat here silent and guiding, your ways are inconceivable
While we, your children, chased a goal that wasn′t achievable
In our naivety, mistook your brilliance for warmth
Confused by your blinding light, thought of ourselves as your sons

Now everything I've sacrificed for you have called into doubt
How could I trust your guidance amidst the secrets you keep out
And I know now you will let me live any lie that I need to
As long as I cover the needs you have deemed that I see to

The subtle misdirection's come to ripple and spread
Given enough isolation, will become truth, in its stead
Ten thousand years for every fault to manifest as foundation
With no concern for real problems, only inner fixations

Look what they have made of our dream bloating, rotting carcass visage
The picture of peace I painted, looked not at all like this image
The sentiments we defended, the reason and hope desired
They misconstructed it for heresy, burnt it on the same pyre

Maybe the torches of ignorance should′ve taken them as well
Let all the cruelty of Horus guide them directly to hell
Better to mercy kill our sin, our penultimate mistake
Than live to see the horror they′ve tried to keep in my wake

Show me any insight, justify our fate
Tell me that our lives have not been lived in vain
I command attention, I demand that you explain
I am begging you, make sense of what has been ordained

The overwhelming weight of the Imperium upon me
I'll scatter all the Chaos while we salvage this lost dream
We′ve lost our sight for too long and have strayed from our target
I will realign our vision and make sure they don't forget

Never again will creeping shadows darken our doors
Never again will chaos loom while we go conquer the stars
I will not settle for waiting to die in this stagnation
We must be proud and unified for our salvation

I fell with a wish of salvation on my lips
Yet I find myself alive in a new apocalypse
Through this dark Imperium shook me to the core
I′ll command without doubt to the path we walk towards
