The Hunt Eternal

In skin of ash and stone
 Gaunt shade compelled to roam
 Ice heart forms a cage
 Black fangs a yearning blade
 Mind bent a starving slave
 None mourn the marching grave
 In dreams we hide in light
 Black eyes will eat the night
 And the world grew cold
 Pitted guts relentless call
 As one of us fell a stark prayer answered
 The flesh stuck in our throats
 Swallow and thrive, swallow and writhe within
 Torn skin consumed by plague
 Famine does not assuage
 Resigned unto this fate
 Monochrome crushing wave
 Wince in pain broken sight
 Bound to us by bridled right
 As days turned we abandoned our gods
 Our mouths rotten with the flavor or our own
 Gnashed and bled only a searing blade
 May halt our grim endeavor
 Let these fires rend my heart
 Till arrows fear to nest
 Pray no blade should cut my flesh
 And to the ground come to rest
 To thrive on spoils
 The hunt eternal
 Two serpents coil
 The pain immortal
 Crumbled road, rendered fat
 Bearing teeth, soulless gaze
 Hallowed flesh, hunger pangs
 Craven thirst, forsaken
 Drift and scatter
 Slow cold surrender
 Race to the pyre
 Shade of slaughter
 A coffin of hunger
 A body to suffer
 Devour forever
 A starving vessel
 A bloodless pillar
 Consuming forever
