lyrics

Bound beyond
Mercy corrupted
Blood of the attainder
We serve the bonds

The faceless thralls Of Varangian assault
Harvested steppes Beyond Byzantium

Penitence for the barren
A tithe for a blessing
Gorged to oblivion
Like the wretched abandon
Of sentient thieves

We drudge in odium
We till the sepulchre
We harrow and burn
Without tenancy,
Without refuge.

We, with deadwood and piety
Without tenancy,
without benign asylum
Satiate the keepers law
Serving the bonds,
serving the will
Of the possessor

Expelled from the autarchy
Our chattels bereaved
Annexed to a kingdom
Immured by excess
At the foot of majesty
Assembled in tremors
With eyes to the sun
Crying out
‘armistice’

Bound beyond
Mercy corrupted
Blood of the attainder
We serve the bonds

De rerum natura,
Such liberty
Our demense,
Our labour
To toil and to be
Our Vassal awaits
To survey
Such fealty
De rerum natura,

Such liberty
Such fealty
Such villeiny
De rerum natura
