Lyrics (to be sung clearly, slow and solemn):

Verse 1

Curfew falls, the city sleeps,

Smoke and iron veil the streets.

On the roof a shadow breathes,

Mask of silence, mask that bleeds.

Chorus

Drink, o fountain, blood and sin,

Wash her weary soul within.

Tyranid whispers, soft and low —

Sleep, my child, let shadows grow.

Verse 2

Under heel, the chitin cracked,

Venom rose and mercy lacked.

Sleep and poison filled the air,

None could know she’s fighting there.

Chorus

Drink, o fountain, blood and sin,

Wash her weary soul within.

Warp winds echo, cold and true —

All will fade, and so will you.

Bridge

Twenty minutes, silence reigns,

Empty streets and crimson stains.

“This was the last,” her whisper dies,

Mask removed beneath the skies.

Final Chorus

Drink, o fountain, blood and sin,

Wash her weary soul within.

The Emperor silent, void replies —

All returns when the shadow dies.
