The true meaning of ‘Cardinal Red’ can be found cryptically within the lyrics.” Lyrics: Go forth, kill everything you see Abhor all the life I see before me Born to raid the world of all its natural beauty No remorse for those who fall in misery Slaves to the irrational, with fear as your compass Self-inflicted cannibals in monochrome You called me fiction, dismissive, failed to listen Now I will show you that I am real More than affliction, this is a crucifixion Of everything you hold dear Now rot away In the midst of an endless night We are the dark There’s no escape As the light’s fading from the sky We are the dark Through the life of your deepest fears I will show you that I am real You preach repentance, but avoid atoning for your sins So I will take all that you have, and all you’ve ever been Within the thralls of cardinals, no one is innocent Spilling the blood of those you love, this pain is permanent A hypocritical nation of ignorance Sworn to eradicate all of existence Kneel before your fate, wrought by the hands of God Now I bring your death Just rot away, there’s no escape, we are the dark Just rot away, there’s no escape Now rot away In the midst of an endless night We are the dark There’s no escape As the light’s fading from the sky We are the dark Born to raid the world of all its natural beauty No remorse for those who fall in misery
