Buried Kingdom

Lyrics

[Intro] [Instrumental: hard-slam riff, sudden stops] [Verse 1] Stone teeth bite through the buried gate Iron lungs pull against the weight Down in the fault where the old walls split Something stirs with a mouth full of grit [Chorus] Break the seal, bring the hammer down Make the buried kingdom shake the ground No retreat when the pillars fall We are the force beneath it all [Verse 2] Black earth turns under boot and chain Rusted bells ring out through the strain Every blow leaves a mark in the stone Every locked door learns we have come [Chorus] Break the seal, bring the hammer down Make the buried kingdom shake the ground No retreat when the pillars fall We are the force beneath it all [Bridge] Cut through the bedrock—split, then strike Faster, faster, teeth of the night Stop—hold—crash through the line Tremors answer, one last time [Final Chorus] Break the seal, bring the hammer down Make the buried kingdom shake the ground No retreat when the pillars fall We are the force beneath it all [Outro] [Instrumental: brutal low riff, final crushing hits]
