SINGER: Skyclad

SONG:Terminus

[intro:] 'megeddo's gateway.'
hunter of the silent darkness--
mighty steel leviathan,
rise from your nocturnal vigil--
'davey jones' the time has come.
send spitting fires and roaring thunder--instigate poseidon's wrath,
unleash the terrors of the deep uncertain of the aftermath.
attack is the best form of defense--fingers on a keyboard play,
when genocide's a numbered sequence death is but a breath away.
i. i hear sirens screaming--
c. see lightning rip the sky,
b. be afraid my darling--
m. embrace me as we die.
dark clouds gather (tensions mounting)--current tides are making waves,
they navigate a sea of tears--above them storms in tea-cups rage.
only jonah 'neath the ocean witnesses the damage done,
but can't turn back the hands of time--none can unload a smoking gun.
i. i hear sirens screaming--
c. see lightning rip the sky,
b. be afraid my darling--
m. embrace me as we die.
the lords of fleet street speculate--as noble statesmen mediate,
they tread on thin ice cracked by hate--one slip could spell disaster.
we gave you power to decide--but now you gamble with our lives,
we've all been taken for a ride--next stop the hereafter.
these implements of science-friction--
are the pawns of power play,
by splitting hairs and splitting atoms--
they'll kill us all the 'new-clear' way.
entice us through megeddo's gateway on this final exodus,
as flesh is turned to ash and vapour by the fires of 'terminus.'
