[Verse 1]
Boots on bones
Ashen ground cracks
Iron rain falls
From a dead black sky
Your name scratched raw
On my rusted blade
Every breath you take
Just one more lie
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that scrape?
Steel on stone
I am every fear
You die with alone
[Chorus]
I am the Reaper in the river of blood
Red eyes burning through the smoke and the flood
Black heart beating like a war drum choir
Drag you screaming through the gates of fire
I am the Reaper
I am the end
Scythe marks carved in the backs of men
[Verse 2]
War dogs howl
At the furnace doors
Cities crumble
Into glowing dust
Your gods choke
On the taste of ash
Every holy word
Shredded into rust
[Bridge]
[low vocal register] Step by step
Down the spiral stair
Every soul a spark
Hanging in the air
[blast beat kicks in] Destruction sings
In a thousand tongues
Hell is just the echo
Caught inside your lungs
[Chorus]
