Ruins Of Ur

The great death pit of Ur
Divulges its secrets once more.
Crushed beneath the weight of earth
Lie the stones and bronzen bones.
Dust to dust and mortal remains
Spewed from darkness into day.
Tombs and monuments of kings
trampled into nothingness.

Greatest of the temples,
Built to honour the Gods of Sumer.
Elemental pantheon,
Deity of the Moon, benevolent.
Lord of Wisdom,
Primeval force etched upon the edifice.
Bull of Heaven,
Sin resides in the incantation.

Cast down into nihility,
City of Ur, bleached and ruined.

Destruction of the temples,
Built to honour the Gods of Sumer.
Forgotten religion,
Reborn through the abject patriarch.
Lord of Lies,
Obfuscating the mystic ancients.
Bull of Heaven,
fallen from the ritual scrolls.

Cast down into nihility,
City of Ur, bleached and destroyed.
Sunken beneath the rule of time,
Ruins of Ur, potency maligned.

Ur-Nammu, Enlil
Nanna, En-Zu
Ur-Nammu, Enlil
Nanna, En-Zu

The earth reclaims.
The soil swallows up.
The earth exhales.
Ruins of Ur.

Crushing the ziggurat,
Fallen before the Gods of Sumer.
Arcane religion,
The desert storms and burns.
Forces of death,
Trample on the ancient edifice.
A bloody price,
Destruction in the name of peace.

Cast down into nihility,
City of Ur, bleached and destroyed.
Sunken beneath the rule of time,
Ruins of Ur, potency maligned.

Cast down into nihility,
City of Ur, bleached and destroyed.
Sunken beneath the rule of time,
Ruins of Ur, potency maligned.
