Crawling Chaos - Let the Vultures Sing Our Deeds lyrics

Divine punishment at stake The beloved of the gods Fruitful lands worth their price in blood Crimson banners are summoned Ruler of Lagash, Ensi of the land Lead your faithful soldiers Sender the army of Umma To plant the seeds of your dynasty The phalanx is unleashed Fearless heroes, a living engine of violence Defeated enemies trampled below their feet Spears piercing chests, decapitation drawing near Vultures flying above The heads of the foes in their beaks A bloody victory Forever carved in stone For the centuries to come Forever carved in stone For the centuries to come Inspired by the giant Ningirsu Wielding a mace in his right hand Anzu, the lion-headed eagle by him A net full of naked bodies at his feet The mother of the god, goddess herself Ninhursag observes, sacrifice ahead Her horned headband is towering behind The marching soldiers' shouldered spears Vultures flying above The chariot is ready, first strike, the king's strike Head crushed by the iron, the battle begins The deafening clash of the human waves fills the field Scattered bodies, gutted, pierced, maimed and nailed to the sand The naked priest prepares for the libation ritual Animal blood feeds the freshly soaked ground Slaves begin cutting into the necks of the fallen The defeated ones beheaded, with no exception The phalanx is unleashed Fearless heroes, a living engine of violence Defeated enemies trampled below their feet Spears piercing chests, decapitation drawing near Vultures flying above The heads of the foes in their beaks A bloody victory Forever carved in stone For the centuries to come Forever carved in stone For the centuries to come A bloody victory Forever carved in stone Forever carved in stone For the centuries to come
