Lyrics of 'Iconoclasm' by Xenolith

Burning fires light the sky
Burning pyres condemned to die

Behold the rotting temple
Built upon the pillars of indoctrination
Follow its steps that circle skyward

Led to an alter of blood and corrupting lies
Stand and stare long into the blinding light
Radiance of arrogant hypocrisy blind your eyes
Stripped of thought and truth

Lost in decaying concrete hives
Overgrown and spilling filth into the sky
Follow its boundless alleyways into hell

Crouch in the damp sodium light lit shadows
Caged beneath the monolithic slabs of greed
The great bastions of avarice
Stretch up forever into the firmament
May their esurient towers crumble
And collapse upon them all

May their towers fall
May the towers fall

Feel the lurid claws of death
Tear away the skin from your eyes
Taste the bitter disdain in the blackened undertow
Blistered tongue cry out in shame

Viral pandemic humanity
Cannot avert its demise

This wretched civilisation of humanity
Is condemned to fall
Collapse like vast towers
Back into the blighted soil

Watch as society crumbles like the Earth beneath your feet
The urban sprawl and decay collapsing into nothingness
Leave nothing but concrete cairns of wasted human graves
Asphalt and concrete horror abominations
Disintegrate before my very eyes
The great monuments defiled by nature
The lands and seas scorched clean of all mankind

This world is meant to die
Burning pyres light up the sky
