Prophecies drawn from the skies Tales told, naught but lies Challenge the augur as end draws near Disown the words of the seer Unknown terror rises from below Volcanic destruction, death in tow The ash filled skies cause you to choke On your knees, void of hope BURNING DEPTHS BLACKENED SKIES VOLCANIC INFERNO EVERYTHING DIES BURNING DEPTHS BLACKENED SKIES VOLCANIC INFERNO EVERYTHING DIES Burning Blackened Skies Volcanic, Infernal Blackened Skies Desperation drove them through the fires Entire towns funeral pyres The Burnt War began in a flash of flame This world, not theirs to claim Protective waves, you must seek Future vision so bleak Plumes of smoke rise from the land Time for one final stand BURNING DEPTHS BLACKENED SKIES VOLCANIC INFERNO EVERYTHING DIES BURNING DEPTHS BLACKENED SKIES VOLCANIC INFERNO EVERYTHING DIES Burning Blackened Skies Volcanic, Infernal Blackened Skies The beaches were lined, the flames kissed the sky The earth torn asunder, the doomed gaze in wonder Molten lava meets water, solidification A matter of time until eradication Creatures of fire came across the seas They will not heed our pleas We face extinction of the human race The Earth will have a new face BURNING DEPTHS BLACKENED SKIES VOLCANIC INFERNO EVERYTHING DIES BURNING DEPTHS BLACKENED SKIES VOLCANIC INFERNO EVERYTHING DIES Burning Blackened Skies Volcanic, Infernal Blackened Skies EVERYTHING DIES

Embody the fire we draw our strength from it Into the battle we ride the flames A torturous path we live our lives through it You demonize and cast the blame The planet is ours we stake our claim to it If not for us it would not turn Welcome the life that we have prepared for you If you do not then and prepare to burn Your path begins Now go convert your kin You can absolve their sin Convince them, take the mark of flame Soon you'll see Human adversity A fatal tragedy The walls of hate too tall to climb Left behind Forget the closed off mind There are more souls to find They shall come to follow you They'll be saved And bathed by the flames When they become enslaved Sear their skin with the mark And for the glory of the flames Now you can die and rise again The bringer of death is just a name Now you must go and build your fame Create an army of disciples Prepare for our arrival We will ensure survival And usher mankind's revival Embody the fire we draw our strength from it Into the battle we ride the flames A torturous path we live our lives through it You demonize and cast the blame The planet is ours we stake our claim to it If not for us it would not turn Welcome the life we've prepared for you Or walk your own path and prepare to burn A ritual Of pain perpetual You must endure it all Lie back and embrace the flame Restore your life And bring and end to strife Witness an empire rise Come forth and join us In a life of servitude Go forth, complete the ritual now Go forth, complete the ritual now Go forth, complete the ritual now Go forth, complete the ritual now Falling into oblivion You embrace the flame Let it wash you clean Now your life is so linear You embrace the flame Nothing but the flame And for the glory of the flames Now you can die and rise again The bringer of death is just a name Now you must go and build your fame Create an army of disciples Prepare for our arrival We will ensure survival And usher mankind's revival Embody the fire we draw our strength from it Into the battle we ride the flames A torturous path we live our lives through it You demonize and cast the blame Go look around we've turned your own on you Don't even try they yearn for flame Give up the fight and join the rest of them One with the fire, forever enslaved

Burn It All 03:24
The coals, the ashes, the flames lick lashes Scorching the earth, turn it all into flame Resistence, pathetic, their cries, poetic Screaming in pain, bring their bodies to me! The blaze, we wield, combust their shields Forces so weak, nothing stands in our way Arise, the victor. The spoils, the splendor Fuel to the flame, incineration begins! Ignite it, Ignite it, Ignite it! Ignite it, Ignite it, Ignite it! Burn it, Burn it all! Burn it to the ground! Burn it, Burn it all! Burn it 'til it's gone! My progress, unfailing. Charred victims, still wailing Crushed underfoot, no one gets in my way My legion, Adaptive. We claim, no captives End of the line, melt the flesh from their bones! Immolate Suffocate Deprecate Dominate

Ember Legion 04:54
You try to run away And start to suffocate The air so thick with tar Your lungs begin to scar The heat is on your back The flames whip and crack Like snakes that seek you out As you succumb to doubt You drop to your knees Let out a war cry Then you demand they freeze Before your skin fries Ember Legion! Ember Legion! Coming for you Ember Legion! Ember Legion! They will burn you Forever burning Hatred churning Hissing laughter End of chapter Now, The Ember Legion They have come to deliver you And make you suffer Welcome to their smoldering gloom Now, The Ember Legion They have come to deliver you And make you suffer Welcome to their smoldering gloom Their malice sears your soul The pain inconceivable Vitriol fills your veins The hatred is mutual Forever burning Hatred churning Hissing laughter End of chapter Now, The Ember Legion They have come to deliver you And make you suffer Welcome to their smoldering gloom Now, The Ember Legion They have come to deliver you And make you suffer Welcome to their smoldering gloom The pain you must forsake For you to find escape The window's opening Jump now or feel the flame Clean air you can breathe It's just a short reprieve Death march soon begins Live on to warn your kin You must run now You must run now You must run now You must run You must run now You must run now You must run now You must run From the Ember Legion! Ember Legion! Coming for you Ember Legion! Ember Legion! They will burn you

We can't escape them, forever advancing We can't deter them, weapons are glancing Endless fleeing, head to the north Inferno abating, still driving forth Reveal their weakness, creation of hope Dispel the bleakness and untie the rope There's blood on the Ice Blood on the Ice Blood on the Ice again Now the tides are turning, our time to make a stand They no longer burn in fury, in this frozen land Time to fortify, we drive them back to their plane Back below the surface, above is our domain Time to repel, a poison infecting Time to excel, humans perfecting Opportunity, no hesitation Adaptability, over estimation CRUSH THE ENEMY NOW SMASH THEM INTO PIECES CRUSH THE ENEMY NOW WE NO LONGER FEAR YOU There's blood on the Ice Blood on the Ice Blood on the Ice again Now the tides are turning, our time to make a stand They no longer burn in fury, in this frozen land Time to fortify, we drive them back to their plane Back below the surface, above is our domain

Permaflame 05:53
Towering flames, ignited clouds Burning rain impales the ground Fire spreads beyond our sight Ever burning flames so bright Glowing embers, light the night Melt back the endless ice Divide the icy vice Create the Permaflame This flame it will sustain Burn their atmosphere Give them more to fear And we drown them in flames And we drown them drown them And we drown them in flames And we drown them tonight And we drown them in flames And we drown them down them And we drown them in flames And we drown them consume The vast and empty plains alight They cannot escape this plight Steams rise to signify The warm air spells demise Earth betrayal, bash the nail They still will feel our wrath Undeterred we choose our path Create the Permaflame This flame it will sustain Burn their atmosphere Give them more to fear And we drown them in flames And we drown them down them And we drown them in flames And we drown them tonight And we drown them in flames And we drown them down them And we drown them in flames And we drown them consume Chilling wind tears through the night Skies exacting endless might Frozen tears cast from above Bathes the earth in icy love Growing colder, building fright We may well have met our match Still we must attempt our task Create the Permaflame This flame it will sustain Burn their atmosphere Give them more to fear And we drown them in flames And we drown them down them And we drown them in flames And we drown them tonight And we drown them in flames And we drown them down them And we drown them in flames And we drown them consume

The icy wind blows the blindness away Deafening silence, there's nothing to say We gaze out upon a planet left ravaged And thus begins another age of the savage Fire Frozen on Fire Frozen on Fire Frozen on Fire Frozen now Frozen on Fire Frozen on Fire Frozen on Fire THEY ARE FROZEN NOW! For mother Earth there is only one cure Another ice age for man to endure How can we live on a planet so torn? All we're left with is a future forlorn Fire Frozen on Fire Frozen on Fire Frozen on Fire Frozen now Frozen on Fire Frozen on Fire Frozen on Fire Frozen NOW! We all lay down at the end Upon us all the ice descends We will surive, we have done it before When mother nature opens up her doors

Ashen Lands 04:23
In the dark you shiver, paralyzed Cleansing rain pours down, the planet cries Soon golden sun rays pierce the sky Light guiding your path, solidified Tortured from within A stranger in your skin You will persevere Weaponize your fear Tortured from within A stranger in your skin Still you find the strength To go to any length Desperate, near lifeless, you're wandering Here in the ashen lands Ceaseless, you search for, salvation You'll never find it here Left to the life of a nomad Here in the ashen lands Nothing by ashes and sorrow You're in the ashen lands Then you see a path you have never seen before The path is marked with death as written in the lore Remnants of the past a warning you forsake The fear of death overruled by what you hope to gain Tortured from within A stranger in your skin Still you persevere Weaponize your fear In but a moment you crest the rise And bask in glory of paradise Then dreams of grandeur vaporize All that you strive for, only lies Tortured from within A stranger in your skin Still you persevere Weaponize your fear Desperate, near lifeless, you're wandering Here in the ashen lands Ceaseless, you search for, salvation You'll never find it here Left to the life of a nomad Here in the ashen lands Nothing by ashes and sorrow You're in the ashen lands Lies! Nothing but mountains of ash!
