THE FLAYED HORIZON
05:26
|
|||
The world turns in a toxic bed of fear,
restless for blood
Where belief is the only truth
that sharpens the heart
With scars that rain from within them,
conscripting daughter and son
Ensnared in malicious collusion,
too bound for thought
As fountains of cowardice clamour
for annihilation
Further profit, tightened control
necrotic distrust...
A dream - a demon of this place -
standing before, shrouded in hatred
Reeking of death
and blessing the dawn!
All life is revolting
in the spirit of Lucifer
Bow down,
kill or be conquered -
none remain indifferent
No lies shall be questioned,
no seditious inference
From the corpses abound laid pale,
to the dying breath
Behold the flayed, gilded horizon
and bathe in its symphony
of dire richness
Ripping the face clean to the skull
A violence forgotten...
how sweet the taste
For the garden of gore must be
righfully quenched,
as It Demands

ANGEL DUST
05:30

Fate bleeds on the steeps of nigh
False kings chosen by birthrite
Prey upon the souls of light
To become their dominion
Submerge divide and malign
A brutish reign cursed with the will
To die
Death hides beneath the lie,
In wait to dine on the carcass
Day grieves the night’s divide,
Longing to reverse the first light
Day grieves at the night’s divide,
Sorely forever falling
Fate bleeds in a mess of yarn,
Hearts quake with fervent derision
Entwined in chaos to tremble
Before the wake
Receive the sweet breath of deliverance,
And anoint the void
Angel of evulsion, come forth
with a sharpened strength
and be done with this

CHEIROTONIA

Cowering before its brilliance
A blessing drawn from blood visions
With eyes wide and arms outstretched
Cowering from a conclusion -
An insight to despair
That colours the world red
With vicious passion
Let faith deliver a world gripped in spite
of the highest strength
and let the face of God
flash with twitching candor
And it won't let me down
lead by the blight of slain
and carried by whispers
I'm held on the winds that rake
the corpse of time
beyond the fallen
and it won't let me down...
piercing dissent within your hearts
from the maze above and between the sky
unto the monument
surrendered
To be dredged
dredged along the graves of the holy
caught in the nets of negation
blinded by consequence
Lifted higher as skies give way
like snapping tendons no longer upheld
by the grace of deceit
Stolen by shadows
and they won't let me down!
Filling dissent within your hearts -
from the maze above
and between the sky unto the monument
surrendered

PHANTOM

Cut me loose
Spilling from archaic wounds
the ill-festered impression
that grew beyond the fog of stars
stirring in feral hatred
Cut me loose,
primal awaken the conflict
Internal combustion of
the holy self-messiah
Staring down a foreign dream
that hangs above as it claws at me
The scars that form, a single word
branded in blazing repetition:
COLD
So cut me loose
Crawling these lakebeds to choke
whatever virtue is left above
Withering in the driest heat,
but not alone so cut me loose
Spilling from archaic wounds
that stir in feral hatred
A bitter conception sent for us,
sent from the foreign host

TRESPASSER
05:15
|
|||
Alone along the winding rows
the dark blooms of september nod
in pallour - shades of fleeting vibrance
Like a shifting gaze, twisting from the light
poised in suspicion
A dissonance has broken through the ranks
like a feverdream;
Everything’s alive and it seeks to destroy
Searching for any means to reach a form
The call goes out -
the trespasser must be found
Alone along the winding rows
the dark blooms of september nod
in pallour - shades of fleeting vibrance
like a shifting gaze, twisting from the light
Held in the eerie stillness
No mouth to speak or scream,
no breath
A manifold of eyes survey;
everything's alive and it seeks to replace
Hunting for any means to be the scorn
Stalked through the dark,
the trespasser has been marked
To be beaten,
to be erased
Sacrificed
on the grave of judgement
To be beaten
to be consumed
and left to rot
in the bowels of justice
|

Reaching for the light
but the devil wants in
Caught in the dirge
back in a colourless dream
On the cold white breast,
on the serpent lips,
on the barren skin,
falling shadows
Reaching for the light
but the devil wants in
Smoked filled rooms
Conjuring plague
Gather the weary,
Gather the lost
To lead them further astray
And alone
In the cold light of dawn,
In the eyes of a snake,
In the breaking of skin,
Falling shadows
Reaching for the light
but the devil wants in
On the altar of birthblood
caressing the babe
Reaching for the light
but the devil wants in
Into the halls of senility,
a strangulation wrapped
in silence

ALONE WITH YOU
05:15
|
|||
Bathed in deathlight
lays a fever dream
Soaked in the panic,
glorified by the screams
And as it came to wrest
all life into the rabid void,
the lovers, blessed to tremble,
destroy themselves
with obscene arousal
Divine desecration
Dripping with disgust
The beating of the wanton harlot
Splayed and begging
Laden with sorrow,
flesh eaten through
Calling out
to be with you
Buried dreams'
burrowed paths intrude
through walls of somber
to be with you
Dead feeling
followed by chasing truth
In the hour of souls
to be with you
Spectre of grieving,
hand down a knowledge due
Held to remain
alone with you
Before the purpose,
beyond the grave
A rite of wounds
has given life
through pain
Before the horror,
beyond the grace
Disembodied from what is left,
left bleeding
(divine) Before the purpose,
(desecration) beyond the grave
A pulse of death
has taken life
in the flesh of a heart still beating
(divine) Before the horror,
(desecration) beyond the grace
And reaching in to be freed
from the wells and the gallows

WHAT YOU CAME TO FIND
06:22
|
|||
A vain pursuit
approaching the altar
but what you came to find
is no longer there
In the cascade of delirious prayer
All which can burn or be lead to fail
chase the cadence of the immaculate
Wonder and fear
An endless euphoric ascent
to golden highs, the ultimate
perfection of death
Profane coalescence
the worms will find a way
Crept in this illusion,
become as one in pitch
Synchronic emanation
fed through the stoney gaze
of the blurring folds
Reveal your carnal riddles
Left with nothing
Confusion compacts to form
A sickle of misgiven faith
Fateful and parted
A vain pursuit approaching the altar,
but what you came to find was no longer there
In the cascade of delirious prayer
All which can burn or be lead to fail
Chase the cadence of the immaculate
arcane wonder and fear
An endless euphoric ascent
to golden highs, the ultimate
perfection of death
