Lyrics
King of the Land of Plagues
Slice through the vines, live for the day, only to sail to a cursed place
Reckless lives that caused us to flee, try not to dwell on our memories
The only way out was to leave our girls, explore the dark places of the world
We reach the city on the seventh day, a place eclipsed in misery
Piled with bodies that used to bleed, pools of water where mosquitoes breed
Their gods told them to lay down their swords, but they fell to men with more than words
The eyes of the dead have a massive grip, frozen screams from decayed lips
A terrible mistake for better or worse, the ultimate sacrifice, taking the curse
Leave me behind I'll try to hold
This evil from taking our precious souls
The light of day will soon be here
The light of day will soon be here
If you see me throttle your legs, I'm the king of the land of plagues
If you see me just shield your eyes, I'm putrid flesh that never dies
