lyrics

She needs to be alive
No method can be spared
for me
She needs to be alive
My methods shall never be questioned
I place the figures so it can begin

The black cloud thickens
A dusty, glimmering cover of life-returning shadows
Remember who you are
Bring back the memories of
power that you wielded
And the terror I induced
These are the components needed
to finish the inauguration

In a prison of stone
Cold like her skin
Energy evaporated

Life’s warmth returns
But there is one thing missing
Swiftly recovered by my hand

I gift you your tongue
I gift you your tongue

She needs to be alive
Darkness
Shall bring her back to life

Shall bring her back to life
To consummate our union with the gods

Bring her back to life
Make me the ruler of this people in the eyes of the gods

This is how I prove
I will go all the way
I will do anything

The wager
Landed in her favor
Her rest has been disturbed

Deep within the night
In the darkest chambers
Came the figures wandering
Into his mind

With zealous inspiration
They were carved to fit the
image of the power that allowed the resurrection
And her spirit once again to manifest inside the flesh

The tongue of sovereignty needs to speak
The tongue of surrender already has

Dear empress
Give it all up

Dear empress
I succeed where you have failed
Glory is finally upon us

Bring her back to life
Shall bring her back to life
To consummate our union with the gods

Bring her back to life
Make me the ruler of this people in the eyes of the
Gods

This is how I prove
I will go all the way
I will do anything
