Cathedrals of Ash

(Intro - church bells ringing, with a growing organ melody. Other instruments join in progressive layers.)

(Verse 1 - first vocalist)

Veins adorned in martyr’s lace, tongues flayed in sacred writ,

I stitched a chalice from your sins and drank your counterfeit.

These cathedrals blaze with requiems, ash drifting from my eyes—

Let angels choke on censer smoke as innocence denies.

(Chorus)

Set the heavens to fire, these cathedrals of ash!

We wear the plague like a crown, and we never look back.

From the tomb to the hive, let the blasphemy crash—

We are the voice in the void, we are vengeance unmasked.

(Verse 2 - second vocalist)

I been in the dark with a spark in my throat, where the knives never sleep and the liars invoke.

Sacrilege in the mirror—fracture the frame, baptism in brimstone, shackled in flame.

You don't want none of this plague in the core, I pivot through pain like a cipher of war.

The choir be screaming, the fire be dreaming—I'm breaking the chains from the pit and the lore.

(Chorus - both vocalists)

Set the heavens to fire, these cathedrals of ash!

We wear the plague like a crown, and we never look back.

From the tomb to the hive, let the blasphemy crash—

We are the voice in the void, we are vengeance unmasked.

(Bridge - DJ turntable solo, with samples of ritualistic screaming, reversed choirs, and mechanical groans)

(Outro)

I kissed the gallows with lips of soot

And marched with angels into the cut

Your gods are shivering in the cinders

While we dance on the bones of the judgment bringers.
