Lords Of The Poison

Venom drips from the blade like a snake fang.
Hanging by a thread.
Dread the voices unheard.

Let the song ring true in your mind till it’s over.
Sober words never tell truth.
Sooth and be the one burned.

Grip the steel and ready yourself for the battle.
Rattle your sabers and shout.
Doubting your own strength.

The eyes of the viper are watching from the fog.
Dogs of war are unleashed.
Sheath the whole sword’s length.

Lords of the poison.
Masters of the tongue.
Congress in treason.
Allegiance undone.

Lords of the poison.
Weavers of words.
One sovereign notion.
To stand against Earth.

Once I was one of you now you spit on my name.
Claim I’ve betrayed you.
Do you see yourself?

I’ve been party to a great travesty I cannot stop.
Drop your accolades.
Fading straight into hell.

We’ve sworn our body and soul to the service.
This cannot be right.
Fighting our own kind.

One day in the future I will see your head mounted.
Red running, none grieve.
Leave us peace of mind.

Lords of the poison.
Masters of the tongue.
Congress in treason.
Allegiance undone.

Lords of the poison.
Weavers of words.
One sovereign notion.
To stand against Earth.

I’ve seen you in my dreams for so long.
Gone are my last hopes.
Roped into finding the lost.

Tell me the answers that I’ve come to seek.
Treat me as equal.
I’ll have this from Kosh.

Lords of the poison.
Masters of the tongue.
Congress in treason.
Allegiance undone.

Lords of the poison.
Weavers of words.
One sovereign notion.
To stand against Earth.
