Only The Weak
Out of the ashes
Humanity born into kingdoms on Earth
choices are left to the strongest of all
Into tomorrow
Eternity lays heavy burden
What kind of course do we take to survive
How can we learn to forgive
If history’s not on our side
How can we gain from dismissing our past
A force now to keep us in line
Only by leaving the past can we truly arrive
Only by losing our way can we ever survive
Only unlearning the truth will we overcome lies
Only in death can we find out the meaning in life
Shock revelations
Renew all attempts to return to an innocent
Phase, Soon to decay down to ritual and rite
The recurrent cycle
Salvation that withers away
Damned, by our treachery, bought back to life…
Denial
Here in the Skies
We stare down your actions and thoughts you deny
Lengthened shadows prevail in your kingdoms of light
Hiding all but the truths that are easy to find
Making Promises end
Making Promises History
until all that is left
is a sense of denial
Here in the dust
We question and judge your indifference to us
Seperation disputes our connection to
all you’ve made
But if that’s what you meant By
leaving our worldly possessions behind
Then there’s no other choice but
Breaking our land and des1troying our ways
Making Promises end
Making Promises History
until all that is left
is a sense of release
Here In The Dust
Where broken and shattered are fragments of our mighty
Reign, A fickle resemblance of prophecy
made by our kind
Our hope will remain
That we’ll build our empires to burn them again
Like the tide we forget our past and return
to dominions that one day are destined to fall

Acid Empire Guildford, UK
'Listening to Acid Empire is almost like sitting on the lawn of the Philadelphia Art Museum and listening to the
Philadelphia Orchestra perform while fireworks explode in the sky above you.
Almost, because of one notable exception- no Acid Empire to complete the musical score! That is because Acid Empire has created symphonic metal in the purest of forms- with a symphonic orchestra' - Danteprog
