Selling Rubicon by the Pound

by SOULMASS

/
1.
Auspicious tidings read on wings of the dead Splayed out in entrails telling omens left unsaid A sign that's calling for the dawn of new age Cinders are yearning for release from their cage Foreseen by the all-knowing The winds of change are blowing Unseen intelligence holds secrets deranged Willpower burning toward a fate prearranged Soldiers of fortune dealt unfortunate hands Each one for sorrow wandering the wastelands Across the ocean grows a garden of weeds Fed by the corpses of a corporate disease Let loose the dogs to dig up long lost friends Forgotten curses will arise once again Where roots and branches have grown Shadows beneath hearts of stone I will quench your thirst with a barrel of blood I will show you fear in a handful of dust
2.
Within the fire Burns one true flame Voice of desire Given a name We speak in hushed recesses Where eyes can't see All suffering progresses When none are free Darkest sin or sacred right? Can't you hear the anguish in our cries? Imminent flash of light Wash away this stain between two lives At the violent hour Where all turns black The blind are honest liars Denying hope they lack The choice falls upon us Betrayal to defend Should we trust the process When it means the end? Red sails where the future awaits Bones bleached by the passage of day Engaged in a star-crossed embrace The weight of innumerable calamities at stake Our voices are perceived I still believe
3.
Hear the thunder in distant mountains A demon rising to shift the balance From this point forward, there is no water No sustenance or reprieve from the doom to come Who is this that walks beside us? Who is this that seeks to guide us? Release all the inhibitions that you keep Release ignorance upon a world that only weeps Release all of the hate you feel Release the ties that bind Release the sickness to be healed Release control of your mind Hear the bells tolling in empty chapels Threads of reality will soon unravel From this point forward, there is no turning back The die is cast and we must adapt Awaken the dawn of a new existence An evolution for a distant home Main System. Activating Combat Mode.

about

This EP comes hot off the heels of our third album, Let Us Pray, and is inspired by Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon and The Waste Land by T. S. Eliot. We've returned with our trademark blend of soul-crushing death/doom metal, sure to please all who have followed our exploits over the past ten years.

Main system. Activating combat mode.
