Bearer of Dark Tidings
04:58
|
|
||
The most profane observes the scene from mountains made of bones
Words of damnation was uttered forth when the moon was drenched in blood
The lifeless knight on a pale horse rides, his crimson cape sweeps across the globe
Bearer of dark tidings
Harbinger of total death
Unseen by the naked eye but its kiss can’t be denied
You’re forced to sing in its praise through collapsing lungs of suffering
Tenacious and eternal is this multiplying beast
Illusive and cunning neither dead nor alive
Indiscriminant in its ways to its whims you are bound
A stellar blight, a child of night, the reapers familiar
Ignite the flame that lies hidden within man
To reveal the true nature that dwells inside us all
Even God must fall at its feet as faith goes cold
Chaos rules in its wake as all we know is gone
The wrathful hatred from the vast abyss has materialized in organic form
Voices scream inside my head as I am to become one with the bearer of dark tidings

Terminus
03:57
|
|
||
Consummation - Of all the means to a irremeable end
Halls of worship - Frantically licked by voracious flames
A funeral shroud - Falls heavy on monotheistic faiths
Fine hominis - An insufferable path towards the terminus
Dead eyes staring - Contemptuously upon the ugly truths
Venomous - Is the bite from the subconscious
Denunciation - Of the constraints from the holy trinity
Terminus - The liberating thermodynamic fire
An unbearable plight lies ahead
Their pathetic lamentations echoes across the ruins of their former opulence
The heavy rain of naught trickles down their brow as they drag
Their feet across the shattered remains of prosperity
Bound to the cosmic threads that is entangled with the terminus

TON 618

|

When a heart holds nothing but contempt for our existence
The beats synchronizes with the pulsing current beyond the event horizon
When a soul holds nothing but darkness it’s aligned with its furious contortions
This most formidable nemesis of the laws of physics
All knowledge is contained within yet it’s distorted in ways beyond mortal comprehension
The forbidden tree stands tall in the center of its funnel
Bleeding its poison to invoke eternal night
Ice cold yet burning with majestic flames unseen
Gods of rebellion resides in there
Fueling the insatiable hunger of this ravening monstrosity
It stems from the undawn before time as a final frontier against creation
Determined to reverse everything back to naught
Immersed so far away yet still so very present;
The merciless accuser and unyielding destroyer
I seek to be intertwined with the gravitational pull of cosmic damnation
Accept my allegiance, I sacrifice myself to your dissolving principles
Reshape my soul into a spearhead and place me upon the invisible star on the other side
Time becomes distorted
No laws in there apply
Nothing lives and nothing dies
Constantly expanding to consume
The remnants of three failed attempts
To preserve the ego lurking in there
The sworn enemies of the confining light

Apokruptein
04:54
|
|
||
Ominous premonitions as the miasma from coffins breach the soil
The obscured constellation aligns, all the seals lies bare and broken
Angst, uncertainties, turmoil and premature deaths;
It is the writhings of the restless sleep of a serpentine presence hidden in the watery grave of the Earth
Behold what the blind reveals, harken as the voiceless speak
Mouths filled with worms, vile and horrendous sights from their charred and eyeless sockets
The spear that was plunged in their saviours side shall penetrate the bleeding sky
And the thorns that pierced his brow shall spread disease in virtuous minds
And heaven shall be flayed by the sword of contempt and thee who once fell are now bound to ascend
All beauty is just a mirage to hide the foulness that lies within
Good deeds fades with time, pure evil is what persists
I am of thee, who was never meant to be
What might be the next to crawl out of the genetic soup of failure?

Malformed
05:21
|
|
||
Kneeling to receive a poisonous communion
Fear is accumulating with the blood-curdling screams
Far out in the sea, seven heads emerge
Distorting the balance, this storm is a breath from the bringer of light
Malformed, everything you touch will be malformed
And writhe in the depths of your failure
Lethality spikes with the multitudes
Perceive this curse through draconian eyes of night
An utterly malformed salvation
Receive this pestilent gift devoid of light
Twisted tongues forming words that essentially holds no value
Myriads of chaos in matter mind and soul
A great expansion of the void is now inevitable
The grandeur of madness is adorned with the afterbirth of the damned
To transgress the will of God
Is the definition of sovereignty of thy soul
I call upon the queen of the desert night
To snatch the unborn from the womb, from their wretched wombs!

Existential Abhorrence
04:10
|
|
||
If your God is the absolute, then explain the absence?
I can only smirk at the irony when by his own image he was rendered obsolete
They seem to sleep while they’re still awake; who can now tell what is a lucid state?
Frozen limbs from a mental rigor mortis stuck in a cycle of existential abhorrence
To serve their needs, you’ll burn, you’ll bleed
It’s an honor to join the opposing force in the fatal dance in between space and time
And to see it all be revealed, that which is the utmost pure is also the most unclean
And the fickle swine welters in the man made cesspool of failures
And the Devil is laughing as the naive keeps shoveling in desperation and hope
In the prosperous fire we’re all burning
And when only ashes remain, no one will be left to mourn

Visions From Megiddo
03:41
|
|
||
In the shadows the serpents lie; the heralds of evil and darkness
Pestilent demons spreads a plague to reek havoc across the world
False kings will rise to sow deceit and the mother of all abominations
Raise the golden chalice of filth and fornication to celebrate the victory of the final war
I saw it all unfold in the visions from Megiddo
The blinding dark of the inverted sun is present in my frozen heart
A pound of flesh from the living God is the magic key
To the void and beyond its ancient darkness the I won’t follow
Let it all be undone in the raptus of Megiddo!
Buried deep in the sand embedded in solid rock
Lies the eleven seals etched with the ink from the qliphotic shells
The pinnacle of esoteric opposition towering inside her scarlet smoke
The upheaval of dogmatic contempt emanates from the bowels of the Earth the sign of total obliteration
|

Beneath the ashes of time, above the futility of life
The pillar of wickedness stands firm and ready to strike
Interstellar in its reach, dormant in the unknowing mind
Scraping the fabric that holds it all together
Firmly placed upon a throne of total vacuum
Touched by its gloom
It is the constricting pressure on your chest
Its voice makes you question reality itself
All disasters and suffering is both its gift and punishment for a world in disarray
Death is the only constant that keeps it at bay
The sum of its work equals zero
The universe is hanging by a thread at its fading and unwilling mercy
Its pitch black mouth is a gaping void
Its eyes radiates the decimation of cosmos
The corrector of all the fallacies
Made by the hand of narcissistic omnipotence

Torrents to the Void
04:53
|
|
||
There is a presence unexplained embedded deep inside the brain
It feeds on all the misery and breeds through our connectivity
Materialized to desensitize, to much for most to withstand
From where does it originate, could it be one of the heads?
No way out of this predicament all your truths revealed as false
You shall receive not what you’ve preached, an inconceivable death toll
From all the fatal errors you now must reap what you have sown
The penetrating spikes of judgement shall strike at what you crave the most
Going under, the pitch black waters of transitioning
To merge with something deeper, something sterile and more refined
Now they stand at the brink of falling, the time has come to meet your fate
There is no light at the end of this tunnel
This darkness is paramount
