Botanist - EP1: The Hanging Gardens Of Hell lyrics

Tracks
01. Balete
In the cracks of every structure
And from crevices of their homes
Roots growing upwards
Branches reaching down
Urostigma
Deep within its wooden cathedra
Angyaw mysticism conjured
Spirit medium channeling
To bring ruin upon their world
So, Unleashed
Balete comes strangling
Twisting, as light drowns out
Their structures enveloped
Choked in a verdant fist
Oxygen deprivation
Suffocating demise
As leathery hands glossy
Around their throats entwine
Germinating epiphyte
Dispersed by Aves' wings
Fall into new recesses
From which rises again
The green mantle of death
At the coming of the Verdant Messiah
At the onset of the Budding Dawn
The earth in floral apocalypse enraptured
Mankind's existence imploded
Absorbed into a single elliptical leaf
To be transformed and birthed anew
Into the glorious destiny of the Plantae Kingdom
02. Streptocarpus
Decussate phallotaxy
Gesneriaceae
Rosulate Streptocarpus
In small hordes form
Ever growing cotyledon
Lurking in crevices below
Colonizing the rocks
Caulescent denizen
Creeping stems summon
Rhizome propagation
New hordes arise
From its thousand young
Pair-flowered cyme
Dust-like seeds
Seekers of light
Parietal placentation
Twisted fruit
Spiraling seed pod
Unifoliate monocarpia zygomorphic
Rising and falling
In singular floral glory
