[Intro – orchestral / drums build in]
(spoken growl)
The wheel turns —
and gods fall silent!
---
[Verse 1 – fast, tight rhythm]
Flesh to dust, and dust to kings,
Crown of pain, the silence sings.
Rise and fall — the fates collide,
The light we built has fucking died!
Crimson skies, no breath, no dawn,
The golden age — forever gone.
Hands of fate, grind bone to sand,
No mercy left in mortal hands!
---
[Pre-Chorus – short build / shouted]
Fortune turns — no one survives!
We burn to prove we’re still alive!
---
[Chorus – massive, shouted, layered with choir in the background]
O FORTUNA!
TURN THE SKY TO FIRE!
O FORTUNA!
FEED THE FUNERAL CHOIR!
Kings will kneel, and thrones will break —
The world forgets the gods it makes!
---
[Verse 2 – faster / double bass groove]
Steel and sorrow, blood divine,
Every death a warning sign.
Echoed prayers in static form,
Faith was born to feed the storm!
Break the crown, embrace the pain,
No soul returns, no voice remains.
Every saint, a fraud, a lie —
Every truth, a way to die!
---
[Pre-Chorus – screamed buildup]
Fortune turns — no gods, no grace!
Fate devours the human race!
---
[Chorus – repeat / faster delivery]
O FORTUNA!
TURN THE SKY TO FIRE!
O FORTUNA!
FEED THE FUNERAL CHOIR!
Kings will kneel, and thrones will break —
The world forgets the gods it makes!
---
[Bridge – orchestral background / mid-tempo brutality]
(Latin choir sample suggestion)
> “Fortuna, velut luna, statu variabilis…”
(Screamed over it)
The wheel devours, the stars align,
All are judged by their own design!
The crown corrodes, the flesh decays —
The curse of men, the price we pay!
---
[Breakdown – low growls, heavy syncopation]
BURN!
THE!
SKY!
LET THE ASHES TESTIFY!
FALLEN!
SONS!
OF!
FORTUNE!
---
[Final Chorus – layered screams / full orchestral chaos]
O FORTUNA!
TURN THE SKY TO FIRE!
O FORTUNA!
FEED THE FUNERAL CHOIR!
From holy light to endless pain,
The wheel turns — and we remain!
---
[Outro – slow, whispered growl over fading strings]
The wheel turns...
and none are spared.
