Tracks



01. Liberation

Observing
The artifact
Icons dance
In smoke
Close is the time
Of Liberation

Images are imprints
To recognize the divine
When drifting through the forms
Of the inscrutable

Threshold
Of mortality's pain
Can darken the dying
Mind
Turmoil of the last breath,
Terror devours each thought

Feeling of termination
Crawling across corridors of silence

Setting
The Path on fire,
Spirit of peace
Must be invoked

Misconceptions
And the fear of departure
Blow away the chance
To embrace the light

Confused and unprepared
The consciousnesses leave the corpse
Earth of sacred rivers
Observed by bewildered eyes

Guided by the litany
The Self begins to travel,
Led towards the passages
Where spirits are reborn as Gods

Words echo in death's realm
The spirit shall not turn back
Ignorance calls the preys
Away from Liberation...

02. Resurgence

From steel vapour,
From blindness and oblivion
The resurgence.

Once again
A primeval wailing,
I break the hush and the cold

Innervated
Pile of flesh,
I must re-learn to breathe

Sudden
Resurgence,
Dying backwards,
Sinking inwards

From steel vapour,
From blindness and oblivion
My resurgence.

03. Beholder Of The Asteroid Oceans (Part I & II)

Gliding
Impalpable,
Nomad
Of the Pillars of Creation

Eyes of silver
That swallow the light...
"Manifold oneness, answer my call!"

Teardrops of arrogance
For grace to be bestowed

"To reach Thy powers
To seize Thy nature
To browse through the Golden Pages
To forget my death... my humble praises

To the Beholder I'm crying out
My flesh is my offer, blood of the devout

Be my call heard!"

Disease of grandeur
Hangs over the Promethean

The self-magnifying
Tries to crawl towards the unapproachable
On a quest for power
Boundaries are unknowable

But all at once the request is heard,
Beholder's quiet is distraught
Now see it elevate from its watchtower,
Furiously churning with its thought

The arrogant misunderstands
The rising of the entity,
He smiles as he waits for splendour to be granted
From an indulgent being...
Powers are invoked from afar
For the retribution

And so the Promethean is pulverized into the abyss...
The order is silently restored.
