Asserting dominion


Night falls
Yes we stalk again
Insatiably craving
The warm flesh of man
Endless bodies
To lay iron and steel
We cherish the sunset
Ready for next kill

Meeting amidst this great drought
Two strangers, cast out
Now brothers, concurring
To share, this miraculous feast

For months
We've dined upon them
Dragging the weak off
By night to consume
We savor the flavor
Terror infused blood
Shake 'til the neck breaks
Feel the body go limp
More sport than survival
This hunger more than primal

The arrogance of man
Seeking to tame
Our wild and savage land
We two kings vow to kill
Assert dominion

So futilely
Building walls of whistling thorn
Stoking barriers of flame
Easily we circumvent
Continuing with our plans

Oh yes we've killed again
Our maws stuffed with delicious meat

Luxuriously we bathe off in the sun
As their hunters enter our den
Spears and guns in hands
Trembling fast

Our home their tomb
The stench makes some wretch
They never assumed
That we save all the bones
A shrine to their doom
Surprised by our entrance
Their weapons prove useless

We met, amidst the great drought
Two strangers, cast out
Now brothers, conquering
Made flesh, the will of this land
With tooth, and claw we soldier on
Our hunger heeds the call

The arrogance of man
Seeking to tame
These wild and savage lands
We two kings vow to kill
Assert dominion

The Mother Earth demands
We shed as much of their blood
As we can
We two kings take pleasure and thrill
Asserting dominion

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
