Ihsahn - Panem et Circenses lyrics
[Ihsahn - Panem et Circenses lyrics]
It is time (It is time) the sun stands high
And unfaithful crowds await thee
Redemption in their eyes and stone at hand
The arena hungers for your venom
Hey! Let the games begin
Bring in the lions, bring in the beasts
It is time to confront the
Masses with their fears
A sober moment, a shred of truth
To gaze into an honest mirror
A disturbance of their sleep
Violent teeth and claws untamed and fierce
Reaches far and cut deep into the empty eye
It is time to let the bitter venom flow
Trough this embodiment of emptiness
And the blood shall run free like words
And the bones shall form stairs to the future
Now, unfaithful spectator are you satisfied?
Did you come close enough
To feel the lion's breath? One day soon
Your shall be the sacrifice
A nameless grave (A nameless grave)
Of the past
Hey! Protagonist
Your time is now
