Spawn Of Ungoliant
Web of Carnage: Embracing Fate in the Spawn Of Ungoliant
Lyrics
Monstrosity, upon their stilts, a hunger never satisfied
Monstrosity, characterized by insatiable hunger, stands on stilts.
Gargantuan, yet silent wraith
Gargantuan and silent specter.
Her tusks of poison unfurl from searching mandibles
Poisonous tusks emerge from searching mandibles.
The forest creaks, rotten and bleak
The forest is decaying and desolate.
Strangling in the silk, her banquet tries to flee
Victims are entangled in silk, attempting to escape the impending feast.
The limbs quiver, then drop; toxins induce rigidity
Limbs tremble, then succumb to toxins causing stiffness.
As in life, so in death, we are flies caught in a web
In life and death, humans are like flies ensnared in a web.
We are food for a predator; immobilized, we die this night
Humans are prey, paralyzed and fated to perish.
Careless, we have wandered
Wandering carelessly, oblivious to the impending danger.
Sarcophagi are woven in the shade of The Queen
Sarcophagi (burial containers) are created in the shadow of a Queen.
Tall trees are our minarets, we call to praise her spinnerets
Tall trees symbolize praise for the spider-like Queen.
Foolish we were to run from the eight-legged Goddess Of Death
Regret for fleeing from the eight-legged Goddess of Death.
Hoisted high from the woodland floor, our Empress wants to feed
Empress seeks to feed on those lifted from the forest floor.
Thousands of corpses on display
Countless corpses on display.
Is it a travesty, to marvel at this majesty
Questioning the appropriateness of marveling at the horrifying spectacle.
When devourment is fucking nigh
The moment of consumption is imminent.
Pedipalps reveal what she desires
Spider-like appendages reveal the desired prey.
Consume the ripe; the most succulent
The most succulent are chosen for consumption.
As in life, so in death, we are flies caught in a web
Continuation of the metaphor – life and death as flies in a web.
We are food for a predator; immobilized, we die this night
Reiteration of being prey, immobilized and destined to die.
Careless we have wandered
Reiterating the careless wandering into danger.
Sarcophagi are woven in the shade of The Queen
Continued creation of burial containers in the Queen's shade.
Tall trees are our minarets, we call to praise her spinnerets
Forest's tall trees serve as symbolic minarets praising her spinnerets (silk-spinning organs).
Foolish we were to run from the eight-legged Goddess Of Death
Reflecting on the foolishness of fleeing from the Goddess of Death.
Internals are liquefied and all that's left is just a husk
Internal organs are liquefied, leaving only a lifeless husk.
Proboscis laps up the human nectar; every morsel of the slop
Proboscis consumes human essence and every bit of the remains.
As in life, so in death, we are flies caught in a web
Life and death analogy persists – humans trapped like flies in a web.
We are food for a predator; immobilized, we die this night
Reiteration of being prey, immobilized and destined to die.
Careless we have wandered
Reiterating the careless wandering into danger.
Sarcophagi are woven in the shade of The Queen
Continued creation of burial containers in the Queen's shade.
Tall trees are our minarets, we call to praise her spinnerets
Forest's tall trees serve as symbolic minarets praising her spinnerets (silk-spinning organs).
Foolish we were to run from the eight-legged Goddess Of Death
Reflecting on the foolishness of fleeing from the Goddess of Death.
