Astriferous - The Lower Levels Of Sentience lyrics



Tracks



01. Ghost Universe

Hollow emptiness
In endless expansion
All matter ceased to exist
In this sterile ghost universe

Black holes from eons past
In the form of radiation
With immortal transcendence
Remnants of the last universe

When what is left has been consumed
By the last devouring vortex
Time and space will be no more
As nothing will perceive them
Absence of the cosmos, total vacuity

Echoes of the origin
A sight into the future
Obscurity will permeate all
The empty space that remains

The deeds of humanity
Our ephemeral lucidity
Are nothing but unpurposed
Utterly insignificant

Galaxies absorbed
Celestial bodies crushed
Consumed by the void
Our impending demise

Ancient transmissions
From a lost universe
Ominous signals
This life is absurd

02. Exercises In Tantric Sorcery

Source of force
Well of fire
Carnal communion
Flesh adoration

The practice of lust
Reveling in genesic ecstasy
A ritual prayer in moans
Invocation of the All-Begetter

Carnal hierophany
Sacred communication
Illumination through stimulation

The sleep of Siloam
Enthralled in the Sabbath of the goat

Succumb mind and body
To the point of fatigue
The touch of divinity
Through sexual energy

03. A Myriad Of Grotesquerie

Innumerable atrocities
Erected as foul monuments
To the cult of derangement
Mankind bonding through violence and gore

Come gather, celebrate our distinctive trait
Unity through cruelty

Show no remorse for lives that ended
The human plague will thrive on hatred

This vibrant impulse to defile
Pulsating from my entrails
Wanders through every conscience of this wicked species

Thanatos Evocation
Malignant glorification

We are vessels of suffering
Applied on ourselves
Projected onto others

04. Necrohallucination

Condemned to dreamless slumber
My limbs feel numb

Conscious yet motionless
A prisoner in my own flesh
My thoughts wander aimlessly
And slowly deteriorate

An urge to scream but I have no voice
In isolation without a choice
I only long for my own demise
In pain, breathing and buried alive

The end of my body but not of my mind
