Existential Terror

[Intro]
Pulvis et umbra sumus
Pulvis et umbra sumus
Pulvis et umbra sumus
Pulvis et umbra

[Verse 1]
Meaningless
Is this all there is
A flicker of life in a black forever?

[Verse 2]
Shine a light on the bowels of heaven
Dark futures howl in her grip
Frightening new constellations, headlong
Press their scowls on Orion's lip

[Pre-Chorus]
Our earth is strangled
From within and soon without

[Chorus 1]
Existential terror
Four Horsemen: our pallbearers
Riding nightmares of purebred belief
In the coming apocalypse

[Chorus 2]
Existential terror
Furiеs spit on grave endeavours
Thе world is a slippery reef
Encircled by beasts of the sea
'Neath an eclipse

[Refrain]
Pulvis et umbra sumus
Pulvis et umbra sumus
Pulvis et umbra sumus
Pulvis et umbra

[Verse 3]
The more we know, all the more we quiver
On our knees before prophecies
Just begun or being sung for countless centuries
Psalms carved deep into our psyches

[Pre-Chorus]
Our earth, newfangled
Abrim with sin and fully undevout

[Chorus]
Existential terror
Four Horsemen: our pallbearers
Riding nightmares of purebred belief
In the coming apocalypse

[Chorus 2]
Existential terror
Bleak winds blow storm-crow scarers
The world is a slippery reef
Encircled by beasts of the wing
'Neath an eclipse

[Bridge 1]
A gnawing fear of death
Of the great beyond
Of the lessening bells of midnights left
To dwell upon what the hell went wrong

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Bridge 2]
A perverse, reverse Pentecost
Mass cataclysm, all is lost
Accursed music of the spheres
Ascends to score a bitter ending here

[Chorus 1]
Existential terror
Pestilential errors fly
In the face of planetary strife

[Chorus 2]
Existential terror
Four Horsemen: our pallbearers
Riding nightmares of purebred belief
In our extermination

[Post-Chorus]
Decide
Eyes scour blazing skies
Time to embrace the inevitable
We are all going to fucking die

[Bridge 3]
Pulvis et umbra sumus
Nothing but nothing remains
Pulvis et umbra sumus

Pulvis et umbra sumus
Nothing but nothing remains
Pulvis et umbra sumus
Again

[Outro]
Pulvis et umbra sumus
Nothing but nothing remains
Pulvis et umbra sumus
