Tracks



01. Funeral Ground

I was led
Through this path
Weary and long
Towards the abyss
In here
The air is thin
Nothing lives
No one was there

Breathe
Try to reach out
In this hour
Funeral ground

Breathe
Unseen now
Time of dying
Funeral ground

In time
Thoughts corrode
Turn into haze
Surrounded by dusk
I see
Foreboding walls
Four corners
All there is

02. In Eclipse

rom the sky
It came down
Blinding light
To earth
To which they bow
Before thee
To which they claim
A savior

Fall to your knees
And weep
The savior is reborn
Now see

Upon black waters
Above the tide he walks
Upon black waters
All doubt in eclipse

Kiss the ground
And praise
Are you still empty?
Are you afraid?

03. Further From Salvation

White walls
Their eyes
Follow across the room
I cannot seem to look
The shame is too much
For me to bear

Here I found peace
Then it became
My grave
Its wealth made me poor
My name now vanquished
In decay

True salvation
Is now even further
From me
And this salvation is now
Even further
From me

04. Grave Image

To stand at the world's edge
To see what is coming

To see the mirror
The reflection is true
A reason to believe

No illusion in front of me
This grave image
Of pestilence

The weight falls upon me
Can you shield the pain?

No illusion in front of me
This grave image
Of pestilence
No illusion in front of me
This grave image
Of pestilence

No illusion
Came before me

05. Among Us

Man brought to his knees
Now victim
Like the others
Pride in heresy
It couldn't save him
From truth
No more

Among us
Death walks the earth
Among us
Wait to perish
Among us

From the scorn that is reaped
The hand that sows
Depravation
To come

From the scorn that is reaped
The hand that sows
Desperation
To come

Only fear assures
The will to collapse
By itself
Through this order alone
New life is now sworn

06. Words Of Dead Men

The dark is closing in
It helps me to see
White eyes coming near
Of which I dread

The words of dead men
I have nothing else
To cure me now

Godlike
They are
Can't run away
Hear my cries
They are for you
For you

The dark has arrived
Unable to see
I find myself awake
Please let it end

07. No Horizon

I wait
Buried in the mire
Of this life
Fading
See
Was it a shadow
By my side
Or reflection?

Open up my eyes
Hoping, seeking
Open up my eyes

Dying glow
I see your face
Heal me and walk away
Heal me and walk away
Nightfall comes and there's no horizon

The dark
Absorbs me
Somehow, I remember
Cast
A shadow
Close my eyes
You return again

Dying glow
I still see your face

08. Plague Of Virtue

Drawing near
Towards the end
Of the horizon
To cast the stone

This is a pathway
That runs too long
Like a dark road
That drags on through

In your wake
Honor is stained
A time to kill
A time to heed

No sorrow
No mourning
Dishonor
A plague of virtue

Can't you feel
What I feel?
All sense is gone
Your inner god

Can't you see?
What I see?
You've lost it all
You've lost it all

09. A Servant

Harsh light upon me
But still
I see
The noise grows louder
It's you
I still hear

The crack before the shatter
Sinking below the mire
Every glimpse of life before me
Tears from within

No dreams
Just destiny
This is me now
A servant

It keeps me awake
Through night and day
No match, no resistance
Desolation engulfs the path
Now you show the way
You show the way

Wide awake
This is me now
You control my destiny

10. Return To Silence

Trace to vestige
Creator destroyer
Encompass the shroud
Entombment of all
From what may
Mercy is dissolved

Will you accept?
Death feasts on everything
Then you are nothing
Will you face?
Your ill-begotten host
Then become dust

What is dreamt of
Now is foreseen
By this you dread
Never free

What is real
Sworn to believe
Lying here
To fade to grey

Return to silence
Return to dust
Return to stillness
Return to us

Return to silence
Return to dust
Return to stillness
Return to us

The creator is the destroyer
The last vestige of absolution
The creator is the destroyer
Mercy is now dissolved

You return to
Eternal rest
Return to silence
Return to dust

You return to
Eternal rest
Return to silence
Return to dust
