lyrics

Captured
Captured through pens and brushes, in a known time
death scoffers, Testified by chroniclers,
The terror of the middle ages, the unknown personified
a deja-vu behind the door
Sweeping over
Sweeping over the fields, cities and settlements
Segregations under the command of elemental instinct
Quarantines and collective hysteria, god's justice
Guided by the winds of hell

Bodies piled up, Triumph Portrait
Feast of skeletons, Triumph Portrait
Rotten creatures, Triumph Portrait
Nightmare visions, Triumph Portrait

Stains on
Stains on the skin, cough, gangrene and prominent bleeding
A death sentence after feeling the smell contained
In the black buboes, the pestilence of an uncertain future
by the raven-masked beast

Bodies piled up, Triumph Portrait
Feast of skeletons, Triumph Portrait
Rotten creatures, Triumph Portrait
Nightmare visions, Triumph Portrait

A powerful plague
like never seen before
spreading across the continents

Spread by rats and other agents
still discussed,
entrusted to exterminate

Souls
Souls in despair, tortured in agonizing
but short pains
Charred bodies waiting to rest next to the guilty
Mothers and children, butchers and sinners praying loud
all facing what is due
Sweeping over
Sweeping over the fields, cities and settlements
Segregations under the command of elemental instinct
Quarantines and collective hysteria, god's justice
Guided by the winds of hell, the triumph of death
