Return to Earth,
Faint and dark illuminating light
To grant rebirth,
Under somber shade of starless night
Sweeping darkness surge,
Reveal all within what you hide
Blood moon converge, reel me in along with your tide
Resonating first breath,
Like hungered wolves howling into the hollow
Generate un-death,
Escape the womb and blindly follow
Revolution is the flame,
Answered prayers unto Apollo
Tread against the grain,
Your light is what the night will swallow
Prevail through sacrifice,
And stand before the all seeing eyes
Flawless flame we ignite
Beyond bleakest pitch, transcendence burning bright
Darkness cloak us all
Wild cosmic onyx gorge
Where Orion once stood tall
And sagittarian arrows soar
Twilight engulf us all
Supreme existence ignored
United we shall fall
Independece unexplored
Lost... here in time
Perpetually still
We are indoctrinated blind
In opposition to our will
Fading... is the light that never shines
Aiding... manipulation against our minds
Here below the great watching eyes
Deception encases the illusion of our lives
Thy will be done, without the son.
Where are we to seek meaning in your truth
When only fib, fable and fiction is absolute
Deny his name, there are no flames
Constitutionally enslaved
We would surely drown if it wasn't for the waves
Look to the sky, open your eyes
At what point will we try to break away
And turn back from the paths that they have paved
We have to see, we are not free
Below the tide we strain to breathe
Imprisoned selfish suffocating souls
Salvation screams from high above the trees
While our beating hearts beg and plead to fold
Paling light falls behind approaching clouds
Hope flutters like ashes in the wind
So blind we've become to the burial shroud
Cautions unheard silently shriek from within
Time is lost and we bear our scars
Without rise we are fearful of the fall
Darkness has come to blanket the stars
And even mountains vanish behind the squall
Broken hands exhume unspoiled graves
Digging deeper for the dust below the dirt
Here you'll find only bones of once a slave
Ridden with regrets they are unable to revert
Faded flesh slumbering in the tomb
An indication of our inevitable doom
Echoing voices from below the hollow
Calling us... calling us to follow
Time of light is falling
Dark of night is drawing near,
Transcendental voices calling
Whispering horror and fear
Marching forward all alone
Without vision I can see
Into the depths of the unknown
Are the secrets that will set you free
Distant are the stars that shine
Not only those within our sight
But soaring beyond our highest mind
Internally burning even more bright
Levitating into the sky
Atmospherical breach
Breathing where no air lies
Transcending out beyond our reach
Hollow is the heart
That beats within the earth
Death of winter starts
And Walpurgis brings rebirth
Aries in the moon
Sign of the horned child
Sprint, for death will strike soon
Whisking broad, winged and wild
No dusk without dawn
Nor creation without doom
Infinite is the sun
Eternal is the moon
Ignite the fire of all creation
cauterize the loins from which it bears
praise the birth of disintegration
the decaying of our embers flare
Into the pits where we must fall
the trying fires will consume us all
confined, convicted, condemned to burn
radiant be the path of no return
Our own temple will turn to ash
supernova searing the souls of man
sudden strikes with light & flash
smoldering stone walls now crumble like sand
Into the pits where we must fall
the trying fires will consume us all
confined, convicted, condemned to burn
radiant be the path of no return
We are but ashes in the earn
accommodating the gift of fire
for no boulder will go unturned
scorched earth funeral pyre
Let us kindle those who observe
lighting up the next of flesh
blistering down to our last nerve
bidding farewell in its final caress
Snakes, the great deceivers,
governing the minds of man
True falsifiers, coiling
& constricting their master plan
Leeches, cheats & liars
infecting the deepest drinking pools
Pure poison in the mire
where we squirm like worms and defenseless fools.
Snakes and vultures
...you are…
fucking snakes and vultures
...you are…
Vultures, the sinister soars
with talons like knives in your back
Blood feeders, winged death dealers
descending a disguised aerial attack
Ravenous are the regal ravens
like opportunistic thieves picking at your bones
Preying solely upon the weak
raptors commanding carrion thrones
Snakes and vultures
...you are…
fucking snakes and vultures
...you are…
Farewell dreams of liberty
none more enslaved
than those who believe they’re free
Forsaken thoughts of prosperity
none more defeated
than those obsolete
Give way the logic of all rationality
none more deprived than
those blinded by greed
Incarcerated within world slavery
none more alive
than we who bleed
Snakes and vultures
...you are…
fucking snakes and vultures
...you are…
Confined in hopeless valleys
stricken with vast veil of shadow
no light will reach beyond these mountains
there's more comfort to be found among gallows
We're lost within the pitch of gloom
as night-tide piles the dead ashore
the breathless laugh in the face of dreams
and the subsisting smirk midst scaling banks of gore
Decomposing tower
self-generating cadaverous Gate to Abaddon
Lining lungs with azure plage
all will succumb to putrefaction
And we crawl higher... over the dying
without remorse, for life we're prying
and we push forward... we march on
into nothing... where we belong
[Instrumental]
Supreme scarlet splendor
sky-swept across astral planes
Ancient illustrated lifeforms
are the stellar constellations within our veins
Behold galaxies of collapsed matter
the great vacuum of buried truth
Witnessing the former shades shatter
while waiting for the breaking of misinformed youth
Orbiting the ego sun
barren oasis of the soul
Star-fall; the downward one
generating outright black hole
Whirlwinds fuel the illusions of importance
sandstorms guiding back the blind
Dying are opportunities for self-contortion
horses high will ride enshrined
Temptations are the fires that burn the hands
while seeking fountains to quench one's thirst
And yet we bathe in the lava rivers of Vulcan
in hopes that a lost god will grant us rebirth
Expand the mind well beyond Yesteryear
Breathe every breath until the very last
Bronze are the caskets of all regret and fear
For all we are is blood, sand, ash
Circular tomb
the mind, body & soul
Framed in flash
elevating beyond control
Suspended in animation
timeless, motionless walls
Celestial divination
echoing throughout our vacant halls
We are of these stars
long dead before we're seen
Enslaved before our start
bound in our illusions & dreams
Madness overtake my mind
let beat my heart to the cadence of the wind
For what else is there left to find
when we are born imprisoned from within?
Oh great mirror, ye who sees through me
Parallel dimension, nebula of symmetry
Shatter my reflection, distort the memories
Oh great mirror, ye who sees through me
Lingering behind the pane
replicating the here & now
Empathy beyond the sane
vanishing the optic shroud
Deeper down into the maze
waiting there the archetype
Entranced in paradigm gaze
dimmer becomes the inner light
Oh great mirror, ye who sees through me
Parallel dimension, nebula of symmetry
Shatter my reflection, distort the memories
Oh great mirror, ye who sees through me
Fading complexion
negating direction
questioning recollection
telepathic projection
Oh great mirror, ye who sees through me
Parallel dimension, nebula of symmetry
Shatter my reflection, distort the memories
Oh great mirror, ye who sees through me
Diagnostic dissection
psychiatric objection
schizophrenic subjection
stigmatic infection
...ye who sees through me...
