Lyrics
Formed from dust, fleeing from candor
Humans are created from dust and are avoiding honesty or openness.
Warring tribes and delusions of grandeur
Conflict arises between groups, and there are false beliefs of superiority.
Hearts of stone, rewarded with might
People with unfeeling hearts are rewarded with power or strength.
A recipe for a continuous fight
This situation leads to an ongoing struggle or conflict.
Lie to me, there's purity in panic
Deception is seen as pure in times of panic or crisis.
Built to feed, the morbidly manic
Humans are created to serve the excessively enthusiastic or obsessed.
Try to tame the chaos around us
Efforts are made to control the chaos in the environment.
We are a speck in the world that surrounds us
We are a small part of the vast world that encompasses us.
We can't contain our disdain for the ground we claim
We cannot hide our contempt for the land we claim as ours.
We are the cause of the flaws that we hide with shame
We are responsible for the flaws we conceal with shame.
We veil our grace and displace what we ought to embrace
We cover our grace and reject what we should embrace.
We cannot face that we're base and out of place
We refuse to accept that we are basic and out of place.
Vald er vopn sem djöflanir deila
A phrase in Icelandic emphasizing the sharing of weapons by devils.
Veira sem vafrar í holdgerðum heila
Describing a destructive force wandering in attractive disguises.
With every act the hole just gets deeper
Every negative action deepens the existing problems.
We are enslaved by this venomous reaper
We are controlled by a destructive force like venom.
The seat of greed is blind to the message
Greed is oblivious to the warnings or messages.
A throne is poison to all who possess it
A position of power is harmful to those who possess it.
To all who possess it
Reiteration of the toxicity of holding power.
Night encircles the boundless beasts
Darkness surrounds limitless creatures, growing strong from religious beliefs.
Growing fat from the creed of priests
Expressing a desire to cry out as chaos humbles us.
May we mewl as the chaos humbles us
A call to abandon established gods and reduce everything to dust.
Burn our Gods and reduce us all to dust
Whether on Earth or another planet, our talents are taken for granted.
Whether we're here or some distant planet
We are unable to escape, and our egos contribute to the earth shaking.
Our gifts have always been taken for granted
Continuation of the theme that our gifts are underappreciated.
We can't escape, no matter where we go
Regardless of the location, we cannot escape the consequences.
The ground quakes beneath the weight of our ego
Our egos weigh heavily, causing the ground to tremble beneath us.
With every act the hole just gets deeper
Repetition of the idea that negative actions worsen the situation.
We are enslaved by this venomous reaper
We are enslaved by a destructive force comparable to venom.
The seat of greed is blind to the message
Greed is blind to the warnings or messages.
A throne is poison to all who possess it
A position of power is harmful to those who possess it.
A throne is poison to all who possess it
Reiteration of the poisonous nature of holding power.
Grætur rósin geislabaugum
Icelandic phrase: "The rose weeps with rays around."
Glóandi og dreyminn
Describing a glowing and dreaming presence.
Drottnar yfir draugaheimum
Ruling over ghostly worlds.
Dauðinn gleypir heiminn
Death consumes the world.
