lyrics

Red dawn retribution

Look to the skies
A sudden sunrise banishing
The darkest night
The cleansing fires
Multiply to burn and blight
The time has come to arise

Return with vengeance
Conquer the surface
Reclaim our home
Fight for the lost
The hornless ones will weep to see
The dawning of our victory

Red dawn retribution

All our fears subside
The sun no longer burns our skin
clouded by the ash

What's left that wars have spared
A shattered kingdom of avarice dethroned
Heap the bones aside
Tear down the useless monuments

The forgotten ones who remain
Revenants, lost to history
A broken people ostracized
Left for dead, all but erased

Chased into holes in the earth
Subterranean outcasts
Forced to cower like rats
Until daylight became deadly

Centuries of isolation
Scrutiny and observation
Watched the tribes of mankind falter
Fanned the flames of strife into warfare

Red dawn retribution
Red dawn retribution

Under a crimson sky
The time has come to arise
Red dawn retribution
Scarred by mankind's pride
And the deep shall inherit
