The Lazarus Sign / Hollow Bastion. Official music video by Defiler & Chris Pikul. All content herein belongs to Defiler. LYRICS “The Lazarus Sign“ Hello, goodbye. How have you been? I don’t fucking care. Conducting hatred from the walls, to the bed, to your soul. I will show you the evil inside yourself that you never knew existed. You are lost, I hope you choke your dying breath hopelessly wandering the earth. Cross your arms and wait for the end of times, The skies align - bow to The Lazarus Sign. Passing days in a wasted life, but not mine. The skies align. Bow to The Lazarus Sign. I am the demons that you can’t help but let in, I am a pillaging scourge of dirt and smoke. The fabled reign, this cloud of blood, a final cry for hope and love. Suffering but still not learning her lesson. Cleansing everything she touches in atomic fire. This hate will never end, even with her gone - it will never end. The skies have aligned, the prophets weep at the thought of today, The day she finally rests. The air is burning, and it’s dancing ’round her mangled shape, Oh God above, what have I done? The clouds above are still telling me to eat her heart. This hate will never end, even with her gone, it will never end. 3:55 - “Hollow Bastion“ You cannot burn what is forged in fire. Every vein, every artery and tendon, Sliced like the blade you used to stab me in the chest with. I meant every word I said, and every time I see your face, Visions of blood and death fill my head. Tripping into the sun, your lips left a sickening stun. I will fill you with a deadly glow, our life together was a puppet show. It’s the law of reciprocity - you’ve got a shit storm coming, And the living can’t save you from me. Why? Fuck this and fuck you, you piece of shit. I’d say that this was all a nightmare, but we’re wide awake. (You’re falling asleep at the wheel on a crash course, headed for the deepest circle of hell.) Have you ever seen a human face melt right off the fucking bone? I could crush you with the weight of a thousand suns, Before you could mutter “I’m sorry“. I will open up the sky and watch you swallowed whole, By the black abyss to which you pledged your soul. These are the knuckles of a night well spent, And this is the face of a hero you hate. I hope these love songs break your fucking heart.
