Lyrics: NECRONOMIDOL
Music: ゼロツ (POIKKEUS)
This track is a homage to Danzig and T.S.O.L. (True Sounds of Liberty), so the lyrical themes are rooted in 80’s punk. Ricky said there is a lot of borrowing from the Return of the Living Dead soundtrack, which is littered with punk songs. The overall lyrical content of the song has to do with taking back a dead city from the ghouls which have overrun and currently inhabit it.

Vespers Cremains floating down
Voices of the dead gliding on nightwindsRest in peace
Our metropolis
Fists clenched in the graveyard of our hopesDawnbreak-illuminated vestiges
Jet-black animus
Not to be dispelledLightning scorches the heavens
Crimson fury
OverflowingOut of the night
Out of the night
We uniteCast you fear aside
As we pass our dying hour
In the midst of our city slain
We alone standWhen the warfires burn down
Raise your eyes from the vestiges
Sweeping away the ashes of our dreamsInto the light
Into the light
We uniteCast you fear aside
As we pass our dying hour
In the midst of our city slain
We alone standWhen the warfires burn down
Raise your eyes from the vestiges
Sweeping away the ashes of our dreamsAll corruption seared away
No treasonous ghouls will be spared
In the midst of our city slain
We alone ruleVespers Cremains floating down
Voices of the dead gliding on nightwinds
