Lies are living within my soul,
wounded hearts, break- the heavens toll.
I rage against the Earth and scream,
machines are coming,
coming for you and me.
Archangels fall and Michael's tears,
bleeding their sins and irrational fears.
The sinners will bring, the sinners will live-
their darkness is their strongest tie.
they are blind to the light.
Angelic light.
We will never surrender to the kiss,
eternity has lost, and our spirits fall-
chains are dragging us beneath the lake-
roars of thunder, roars of hate.
Demons call and fall we must,
to the etheral bonds of satanic lust.
Wrath is breeding in these frail bones,
beneath the darkened veil I find my home.
Oil is my blood, iron is my strength,
I fight against, I win, I gain.
I am, I am all there is.
Daughter of humanity's mistakes.
Daughter that lives.

I like this piece, well written with double meaning. This piece also brings to mind man's shortsightedness and greed, particulary when it comes to the Earth.
Good write and congrats on silver.

'The Black Omen''s my second fav song of Zonaria's. This is very well written and thought out. This is my fav line: 'Oil is my blood, iron is my strength,'.
Funny but Zonaria have a song called 'Way Back to Before' and in it they're trying to show someone back to before 'the fall'. In other words sounds like they're attmpting to save someone from darkness. Almost the opposite to what they're saying in 'Ravage the Breed'!
Peace Georgia
