Zebulon
Come Day of Reckoning

Tracklist

• 1. Reap the Fruits of Famine (06:53)
   copy

  Scourge of God, devourer of light
  Feasting on fields, where life once thrived
  Blackened skies, the sun obscured
  No crops remain, all hope is blurred
  
  An ancient plague, risen from the grave
  No sanctuary, mankind enslaved
  When greed turns to need the beast will be freed
  When the people who plead for a strong hand to lead are deceived
  
  The chattering of wings, a symphony of woe
  As famine's grip tightens, our spirits sink low
  
  Our bodies wither, our spirits decay
  Bound by hunger, we long for the day
  
  A horseman rides on a steed black as night
  His only gift, a contagion of blight
• 2. Day of Wrath (06:46)
   copy

  Oh, what fear man's bosom rendeth
  When from heaven the Judge descendeth
  On whose sentence all dependeth
  Wondrous sound the trumpet flingeth
  Through earth's sepulchres it ringeth
  All before the throne it bringeth
  Death is struck, and nature quaking
  All creation is awaking
  
  Day of wrath! O day of mourning!
  See fulfilled the prophets' warning
  Heaven and earth in ashes burning!
  Come day of reckoning
  
  When the Judge his seat attain
  each buried deed arraigned
  Nothing unavenged remain
  What shall I, frail man, be pleading?
  Who for me be interceding
  When the just are mercy needing?
  Grant Thy gift of absolution
  Ere the retribution
  
  Ah! that day of tears and mourning
  From the dust of earth returning
  See, like ashes, my contrition
  Help me in my last condition
• 3. Headstone (06:51)
   copy

  Lay me face down in a nameless grave
  
  As I fade into memory
  I am at peace
  As I transcend into obscurity
  I am at peace
  
  What is this gift, I've been given
  Not of silver, not of gold
  In garments white as snow
  
  What is death, but a clean slate
  A ransom paid in blood
  Leave my headstone empty
  
  As I reside unscathed, forevermore
  Weep not for me
  There is no pain, I suffer not
  In absence I remain
  
  Though i know you won’t forget my name
  From grave through purgatory
  My heart is set
  My heart is set
  
  What is death, but a clean slate
  A ransom paid in blood
  Leave my headstone empty
• 4. Break Bread with the Dead (05:01)
   copy

  From the shadows it feeds your mind
  The fear of being left behind
  Nothing left for you to find
  Pray for your soul, ‘cause you are next in line
  
  For as the bell tolls
  withering leaves fall
  And you break bread with the dead
  You were there when mountains fell
  Now only you live to tell
  As you break bread with the dead
  
  Desolation, your only friend
  as you await your fiery end
  It is too late to sow with tears
  You'll only reap your inmost fears
  
  For as the bell tolls
  withering leaves fall
  And you break bread with the dead
  You were there when mountains fell
  When your world merged with hell
  As you break bread with the dead
  
  You saw the horizon fall
  This is the end all, be all
• 5. Where Dead Hands Linger (06:47)
   copy

  Lost souls wander, bowed in dismay
  In this cursed land, they forever stay
  Freezing rain, howling winds
  In this moment, the end begins
  
  Bleak winter skies
  As they'll be forevermore
  See your fate intertwine, at the end of our bloodline
  Whispers of the past, remind us every day
  In the bleak winter skies, love fades away
  
  Feasting crows, shallow graves
  Taste of iron, broken glass
  In these ruins, where we held our mass
  By dead hands, the end came at last
  
  Bleak winter skies
  As they'll be forevermore
  See your fate intertwine, at the end of our bloodline
  Whispers of the past, rising every day
  In the bleak winter skies, life finds a way
  
  Lifeless sun
  Dead hands show no remorse
• 6. Deathless (08:56)
   copy

  Time grinds bone to dust
  No man is spared
  No quenching its lust
  Can’t be ensnared
  In ashes, I rest
  Cleansed through fire
  beware the nothingness
  the endless void
  
  Relentless
  The marching of time
  Helpless
  Consumed by the flame
  Mercyless
  Leave the dead behind
  Deathless
  
  I am Deathless
  Cremate to create
  I am Endless
  Reborn to remain
  Ancient of days
  Show me the ways
  I am Deathless
  Reborn to remain
  
  The illusion is broken
  With every word spoken
  Cleansed in fire
  Light the funeral pyre
  
  Let not your feet stumble
  Do not fall asleep nor slumber
  from ashes to dust to ashes
  on earth as it is in heaven
  
  I am Deathless
  Cremate to create
  I am Endless
  Reborn to remain
  Ancient of days
  Show me the ways
  I am Deathless
  Reborn to remain
