about

The oldest, most grandiose, and possibly darkest track from this album, this WWI themed epic details the horrors of war that soldiers face.

lyrics

Open fire
The whistle blows
The nations call you to spill the blood
Over the trench
Through No Man's Land
The objective is all that matters now
Take up your arms
And join your brothers
The highest price awaits should you fail
So take 'em out
We'll make 'em pay
Their blood shall foster Our divine ascension

Let the rodents come
Feed on our decay
The stench of rotting flesh in the air
Eat from this vessel of war
This pile of youth
Been Left for the Rats
Digging through our bullet wounds
Horde to us and let thee consume

It's time to feast
The bodies blanket the shambled ground
Keep pushing through
Harvest their screams
To win the game, you wagered your life
So burn 'em out
And inhale the gas
We're growing through your shambled corpse
Get blown away
Your courage failed
The mortars are thrashing your shattered mind

So let the rodents come
Feed on our decay
The stench of rotting flesh in the air
Eat from this vessel of war
This pile of youth
Been Left for the Rats
Digging through our bullet wounds
Horde to us and let thee consume
Limbless
Mindless
Hopeless
Take my pain!

Kill - sustain Our kind
Die - Our sacrifice
Flesh - We feed on you
War - the Hunger appeased

I'm bleeding out
The dead are all that's left
The rats dig through their organs now
A hollow corpse
What awaits me
A friendless death, undignified
Your life drains out
And becomes Ours
We honour your great sacrifice
As sustenance
So fold the flags
And take the next trench to push through the hunt

So let the rodents come
Feed on our decay
The stench of rotting flesh in the air
Eat from this vessel of war
This pile of youth
Been Left for the Rats
Digging through our bullet wounds
Horde to us and let thee consume
