Lyrics:

A subterfuge emerges from the confusion
Corrupting patterns, piercing the timeline
A trail left emblazoned with no regard
They fly the black flag high

Ubiquitous backstab
Maddened insurrectional acts
Rampant misinformation
Slaughter of defectors

These great tides of change usher the new
Those who can withstand the pressure offer resistance, quickly slipping between the cracks
The path towards ascendancy lays at the extent of their reach
Infinite interstellar genocide at their feet
Annihilation necessary
Destiny complete
Every last soul, by their hands, deceased

Throats slit before devout and jeering swaths
The separation further persists
A force of paralyzed minds
Prejudice and murder through fear
Remaining deaf and blind
An ideology to evolve, alas

Harsh betrayal
Abandoned to the past
Explosive Dismantled and devastated
Forcing new subjects, they carry out deeds of carnage

Slicing and dicing
Disintegrate, obliterate
An ancient subterfuge spawned out of pure ignorance
Civilized erosion highlighting their human nature
Ideological forsakers are stripped down and cast into the light
Throats slit before devout and jeering swaths

With or against, it matters not
Entrapped betwixt tandem forces clashing are the abandoned, unfortunate Void of regard
They fly the black flag high

Spewing of hatred through messages written in blood
Effectively defecating into the mouths of their brethren
