Survival depends on defiance of law The rejection of sanitised, obstructive causes Reversion to primitive, instinctive impulse The thrill of the hunt, the encompassing rush
Those who deviate from common bounds Must suffer the scorn of a nation enraged And those who would inflict this barbaric transgression Will face no reprisal removed from confession
Heed well this warning of due darkness told Hear now this story of two darkened souls
This friendship bold, alliance strong Upon this path we've strayed too long The Autumn air bears nought but calm Not mute despair, nor mild alarm

Beneath an empty sky, a deed here done sublime The Godless stars forever baring witness to our crime Satisfied are we
