lyrics

Risen, to live another day
only to be fed upon by the great white bird of prey
nchained to the hand of great typhon
tormented for centuries, can this ever be undone

behold the fires of olympus
for flame brought to man, now bare the mark of shame

you will be (devoured as you wake)
betraying the gods, just a bitter mistake
you can't catch a rest as you bleed out night and day,
the hunger of the eagle, insatiable, here to stay
ghost of sparta hear my plea
cast into the fire is my only way

placed, in infinite chain, held before the finger of the great titan
typhon of the mountain, a prisoner in his clutch

lost all track of time, does it even matter when you've died a thousand times?
oh to wither away, for all eternity,

"please end me"
cast into the fire is the only way
"cannot fade away, to the gods I am a slave"
forever cursed by the kindness iv'e spared on man

end this mysery
tormented for centuries!

is there solace in my wake?
to the draw the last breathe that i will take
burnt
in fire
erase this curse from tearing flesh!
my desire
ghost of sparta set me free
oh
set me free
set me free

Risen, to live another day
only to be fed upon by the great white bird of prey
enchained to the hand of great typhon
tormented for centuries, can this ever be undone

behold the fires of olympus
for flame brought to man, now bare the mark of shame

Bleed the Future
by Archspire

supported by 38 fans who also own “Prometheus”

First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed. Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help. Gruso

You know when a song's chorus or hook just really hits the spot, right in the pocket? This album is 45 minutes of that. 🤘 mgoldmanmgoldman

Of Sunless Realms
by Inferi

supported by 35 fans who also own “Prometheus”

Since Spenser Moore replaced Blackburn I’ve frankly appreciated Inferi far more. I feel that his drumming improves the overall sound of the band a great deal, but it’s probably just a personal style preference. Either way, Of Sunless Realms was a great foreshadowing of the epic Vile Genesis. Metallurgical Fire
