The Spider and the Lamps (feat. Max Bemis) Lyrics
Barayas (Max Bemis):
So you're Ahrima, nice to finally meet ya'.
Heard so much about you, and I hope it's all true.
I saw what they did, yeah, such arrogance.
I'm the spider, crawl inside her.
I'm gonna show you this once, and then you're gonna do it.
You have a special gift, but they still treat you like you're a kid.
It must hurt so bad with a knife in your back.
Oh, oh, oh, they don't understand.
This is their last chance, no more idle hands.
You'll destroy the lamps, then they'll know who's in control.
Bring those lamps back to me, don't leave them in one piece.
Make sure there's a crowd, then tear them to the ground.
Bring those lamps back to me, don't leave them in one piece.
It's your chance for revenge, this will show them.
Now it's your turn, come on, like you mean it.
Ahrima (Thomas Dutton):
I have a special gift, but they still treat me like I'm a kid.
It hurts so bad with a knife in your back.
Oh, oh, oh, they don't understand, this is their last chance.
No more idle hands, I'll destroy the lamps.
Then they'll know who's in control.
Barayas (Max Bemis):
They can't stop you, bring those lamps back to me.
Come now, don't stop, they underestimate you and your gift.
Tear those lamps to the ground, let them cry their eyes out.
Tear those lamps to the ground, let them hear the sound.
Narrator (Aaron Weiss):
The seed had been sown, now the evil would grow.
His keen young veins were ripe for this aim.
So Ahrima set forth to use the lamps as a torch, and with everyone around, he tore them to the ground.
And suddenly, without warning, their creation was burning.
Their design ignited, all that hard word slighted.
So Toba the Tura was sent to hold Ahrima responsible for his mess, to ban him to this firey abyss.
While the remaining found a new place to live.
So you're Ahrima, nice to finally meet ya'.
Heard so much about you, and I hope it's all true.
I saw what they did, yeah, such arrogance.
I'm the spider, crawl inside her.
I'm gonna show you this once, and then you're gonna do it.
It must hurt so bad with a knife in your back.
Oh, oh, oh, they don't understand.
This is their last chance, no more idle hands.
You'll destroy the lamps, then they'll know who's in control.
Make sure there's a crowd, then tear them to the ground.
Bring those lamps back to me, don't leave them in one piece.
It's your chance for revenge, this will show them.
Now it's your turn, come on, like you mean it.
I have a special gift, but they still treat me like I'm a kid.
It hurts so bad with a knife in your back.
Oh, oh, oh, they don't understand, this is their last chance.
No more idle hands, I'll destroy the lamps.
Then they'll know who's in control.
They can't stop you, bring those lamps back to me.
Come now, don't stop, they underestimate you and your gift.
Tear those lamps to the ground, let them cry their eyes out.
Tear those lamps to the ground, let them hear the sound.
The seed had been sown, now the evil would grow.

i love how max quotes say anything's spidersong... "I'm the spider, crawl inside her." its a fitting cameo.
Definitely my favorite song on the album.
Max's vocals are wonderfull on this track, I also loved how he sings some of his own song, "I'm a spider crawl inside her" to perfect.
I adore this song--thanks to Max Bemis, it's one of my favorites on "Razia's Shadow," with "Doctor Doctor" as a close second (Shawn Harris, in my opinion, just steals the show with his part!!!)
The line "Yeah, such arrogance," is definitely sung by Thomas Dutton, though. Not sure if you want to separate it from the Barayas lines or not.
The Spidersong reference = mint.
I didn't knew about the spidersong reference. Up until now that line "I'm a spider, crawl inside her" just bugged me 'cause it didn't seemed to fit.
