In the skies we see a winged figure,
Aviary signals familiar.
Through the door the traveller, hell hath opened.
Now summon the augur,
Ornithomancy.
See, he reads the heavens.
Will he grace our presence?
Only he can question.
Ornithomancy,
Ornithomancy I, I want to be, I want
I want to feel tooth and claws,
I want to hear the call.
I feel my body wreck, I feel breath on neck
I feel everything, god what did we resurrect?
Superstitious wisdom through the ages,
But the subjects have now left their cages.
See the bird diviner, body broken
What is done, the augur, ornithomancy
See, he rules the heavens.
Malevolent essence
Teaches us a lesson.
Ornithomancy,
Ornithomancy I, I want to be, I want
I want to feel tooth and claws,
I want to hear the call.
I feel my body wreck, I feel breath on neck
I feel everything, god what did we resurrect?
