Grim Void
04:40
|

Escape from the ether
Regain lucidity, regain agony
The hour of penance has passed
Trapped in the era of eradication
A witch hunt streamed live
A death march following the hive
The tarot has spoken
The swords have been drawn
Like lines in the sand
Mob mentality is on demand
Do you feel at home?
At home
Home in the grim void
A chamber of echoes and prophets
Falsified, demonized
What a waste
The weak are weaponized
No atonement
Guilt is branded
Labeling the martyrs and the monsters
The hate is planted
Sinking deeper into a false world
No panic as it pulls you under
The mire consuming
The blood on your hands
A permanent stain
Marked for death with a curse on your name
At home
Home in the grim void
A chamber of echoes and prophets
Falsified, demonized
What a waste
The weak are weaponized
Powerless behind the mask of a filter
Screaming secrets of a silent killer
Cycles aren't breaking and nothing is changing
Cry of the trauma while you are creating
More, now you're frozen in fear
Hands soaked in red with a wish to disappear
Take me back to the void
Where I am the victim and you are the one destroyed
Crushed by the pressure of your repercussions
Delusional
Painting yourself to be so distorted
Feel what I feel
At home
Home in the grim void
A chamber of echoes and prophets
Falsified, demonized
What a waste
The weak are weaponized
Alone
Hope has been destroyed
A mask of strength and endurance
Ripped away
Slow decay
What a waste
A permanent stain

Revenant

Four walls
Build a home of hopelessness
Nevertheless I
Bury the bones and carry the guilt
Taught to encourage the pain and distress
Look in their eyes as you go for the kill
Let the writhing within your grasp be your (our) reward
Bound to these affluent prisons
Four walls and a sealed door
Your efforts won't justify the lies
Blessings won't nullify the demise
Your evil lingers
The atmospheric hell
Claws digging deeper still
These shadows follow
These thorns in my back
Digging deeper still
All harm shall last
Washed away revealing scars of apathy
Drowned in shame
Failure weighing down on me
Four walls and an open door
All harm shall last
In the house of guilt
Reduced to ash
In this lie you've built
Your evil lingers
The atmospheric hell
Claws digging deeper still
These shadows follow
These thorns in my back
Digging deeper still
All harm shall last
A grand division
Controlling with such precision
Cast away, return to your ritual emptiness
Let the writhing within your grasp satisfy you
Revenant
All harm shall last
In the house of guilt
Reduced to ash
In this lie you’ve built

Immolate
04:50

Rest - destined to elude me
Still programmed to execute the requests
Fatigue evolves into fear
Of a destiny of decay
The machine turns with or without me
Lost in the waves of collapse and disintegration
Nothing stays the same
Wherever you find me
Leave me to feed the fucking ground
Tell the surviving I feigned this strength
No remedy for the demand of a constant ache
There’s never wonder, no doubt or question
Only absent eyes and frail connections
What should’ve passed prevails and lasts
Malevolence sheds its mask
If you’re quiet you can hear it speak
And watch its twisted tongue paint a future so bleak
The final transformation
Last immolation
I didn't think that it could get any darker than this
Rest - destined to elude me
Still programmed to execute the requests
Fatigue evolves into fear
Of a destiny of decay
The machine turns with or without me
Lost in the waves of collapse and disintegration
Nothing stays the same
Hollowed out, emptied entirely
Drained of everything I am and will be
The fear is growing into desperation
The final transformation, last immolation
What shouldn’t last seems to be adapting
Everything I’ve done is collapsing at once
And I am frozen in still life
Every chance of survival denied
Survival denied
The final transformation
Last immolation
I didn't think that it could get any darker than this
Failure becomes me as I become a hollow shell
Imprisoned in my own mind to rot and dwell
Every chance of survival denied

My descent into this madness
Slow and everlasting it seems
Quicksand in the hourglass
Frayed threads where the seams used to be
Corrode, break me down even further
Until there's no revival
Corrode, save me now from this eternal melancholy cycle
Cold sweats, pulsing resentment
Bereft of empathy
Mirrors of all my desires
Shattering in front of me
Disintegrating
The spots of haze and gray
Only grow into more faces without names
Descend with me and you'll see
Why the world is bathed in haze and gray
Disintegrating
Descend with me
One spiral, continuous
Barely alive, stares blank as the thoughts
Circling, it's chaos blurred
Barely alive, the rest is all gone
Devolving in mind and matter
It all dissolves once it starts to scatter
Everywhere, it's chaos blurred
Faces I've never seen, words I've never heard
It's all falling apart now
Disintegrating
The spots of haze and gray
Only grow into more faces without names
Descend with me and you'll see
Why the world is bathed in haze and gray
Disintegrating
Descend with me
Lasting images of decomposition
Passing instances of perspicuity
Clashing emotions of redefinition
Treasure what I was before this descent

So quickly you removed
The air from my lungs
Cold hands pull at every string
Until the fabric of unity is undone
By the vultures disguised as doves
Holding lives within their palms
Prolonging the storm
Manifesting fear in the calm
The gravity of greed
Outweighs the sting of grief
This weightless disbelief
Will give way to desperate relief
I know you'll bury me
In the name of currency
Sedate my sanity
And extend my artificial suffering
So empty
Behind the tired eyes
Wandering halls where care is left to die
So disconnected and distant
Numb to the silent patients’ existence
So quickly you removed
The air from the room
Left suspended in this doubt
Witness the sound of pins and needles crashing down
Carve this symbol of death out of me
I may struggle but I will not succumb
This fire rages on
This ash will be reborn again
Comatose, so picture perfect
Limb by limb it’s taking over me
The smoke gives way to dawn
And I am reborn again
Skin uncovers the bones
Time and time alone
Will heal this broken heart
As the rest is ripped apart
A feast for the doves
The gravity of greed
Outweighs the sting of grief
Weightless disbelief
Will give way to desperate relief
I’m begging you
I’m begging you to
Carve this symbol of death out of me
I may struggle but I will not succumb
This fire rages on
This ash will be reborn again
Comatose, so picture perfect
Limb by limb it’s taking over me
The smoke gives way to dawn
And I am reborn again

Obsidian
04:20

You won't resist it now
Leave before you can't
Drawn in and cornered you'll be
Home in oblivion
Once the spell is cast
You won't resist the allure
Of the obsidian
The cold winds
Will wash over you and guard the open wounds
Skin decorated in harm, hope has been all but consumed
The dead sing the prelude to insanity
The sin of your existence
Insulting and unforgivable
Toxins paralyzing
Into submission, into control
Into submission, into control forever
Until the reaper parts you in mercy
I am tethered to this ghost
Exit wounds and visceral pain
Lethal eyes, spellbinding
Misery is chained to me
And I’d be nothing without it
And it’d be better off without me
What a pathetic illustration
A mockery of the structure of power
You can’t decide to survive
You’ll starve without my hand to feed you
The light that won’t surrender
Goes dark
No safety in sacred
Know hatred
(Escape it)
Exit wounds and visceral pain
Lethal eyes, spellbinding
Misery is chained to me
And I’d be nothing without it
And it’d be better off without me
Free of my burden
Will it ever leave me
Don’t deceive me
I can’t resist it
Drawn in and cornered you’ll be
Home in oblivion
You won’t resist the allure
Of the obsidian
You won’t resist it now

Infernum

Red hands weighed down
By mounting crimes
Reflection reproaching again
Consequence approaching
Terminal guilt unleashed at once
No guilt before a spineless confession
Of deceitful connections and careless regression
(It follows) This curse will follow me forever won't it?
I am the victim of nefarious impulse
I'll turn the tides, let the redeemed beg
No guilt will die completely
No hate will will perish
Until reborn and transformed into the same sin
No guilt before a spineless confession
Of deceitful connections and careless regression
You'll see the beauty in the agony
Feel the warmth of the spiteful flame
Let the reversal of apathy
Evoke the pain that still remains in me
Forced open eyes will witness
Damage that can't be rectified
The end of the elusive line
Will now bleed you dry
Forced open eyes will witness
Damage that can't be rectified
A sweet revenge that feels divine
A desperate soul that's been bled dry
I am the victim of nefarious impulse
I'll turn the tides, let the redeemed beg
No guilt will die completely
No hate will will perish
Until reborn and transformed into the same sin
You'll see the beauty in the agony
Feel the stinging warmth of spiteful flame
Let the reversal of apathy
Evoke the pain that remains in me
Forced open eyes will witness
Damage that cannot be rectified
The end of the elusive line
Has now bled you dry
You are the victim of nefarious impulse
I turned the tides while you fucking begged
No guilt will die completely
No hate will will perish
Until reborn and transformed into the same sin

Doom Phases
07:59
|

I cannot survive at this pace
A rat in the race
Shoveling strychnine that I find
Into my face
When I die in this maze
Set it ablaze
And mourn for a moment
Before I'm replaced
I welcome the end of the line
The cruel conclusion of time
Dealt a hellish hand
Frozen in failure I've done all I can
I alone will return to the void
Return to the horror I know will destroy
Me (a feast on my fear)
Nothing in sight
I don't want to die here
Fall to my knees
A life in anguish dreams of relief
Crawling as I bleed
Nothing below me, I struggle just to
Scream for anyone
I watched as they turned away
Alone I rise and I shall become
The wretched king
The god of decay
The wretched king
The god of decay
You will
Feel my wrath
Rooted in this ruinous vacuum
Gloom engulfing smoke
Breathe in the desperation
Drown in the cesspool of shame
Drown in the cesspool of shame
Drown
Nothing in sight
I return to the ruin
Nothing in sight
I cannot survive at this pace
A rat in the race
Shoveling strychnine that I find
Into my face
When I die in this maze
Set it ablaze
And mourn for a moment
Before I'm replaced
I welcome the end of the line
The cruel conclusion of time
Dealt a hellish hand
Frozen in failure I've done all I can
Fall to my knees
A life in anguish dreams of relief
Crawling as I bleed
Nothing below me, I struggle just to
Scream for anyone
I watched as they turned away
Alone I rise and I shall become
The wretched king
The god of decay
I extended my hand
Each and every time
But whenever I reach out
No one's there for mine
Kneel before me weak one
Fall to my knees
A life in anguish dreams of relief
Crawling as I bleed
Nothing below me, I struggle just to
Scream for anyone
I watched as they turned away
Alone I rise and I shall become
The wretched king
The god of decay
I may have sliced the skin
But you salted the wound
Save yourself from your phases of doom.
