Atrocity Exhibition - The Principle Of Sufficient Divinity lyrics



Tracks



01. Object Of Abhorrence

Bound on earth
Bound in heaven
Released in hell

Hopeless souls
Consume thy darkness
On the altar of chaos

Screams resonating from the thousands throats
Rotten light shines so dark
Suffocating heat, no air in the lungs left

And as I lie down
Among the crimson rivers
Channeling my spirit into a new flesh
I follow the primal law:
Consume or be consumed

The temple stands no more
And the light shines so dark
As abhorrence is my name
I am crucified new god

Remember my brethren!
"Nothing is more necessary or stronger in us than rebellion."

The ballance of this world shall be destroyed!

The essence of loss and the fall of a man
Is the ultimate act of perversion
Glory to the meaningless!
Glory to the meaningless!

02. The Principle Of Sufficient Divinity

I am the dead man
The blind
Lost in labirynths of despair
Without the air

Lost in the shadows
Closed in tombs of the past
In the maze
Without the end

The coldness of my tomb
Surrounds each part of my life
The ray of darkness
Shows me the path

Oh heavens! rejoice!
As the night gathers
And falls inside my soul
And slowly corrupts my heart

Oh divine darkness
Release thy power
Let me see the vision
Let me hear the voice

The principle of sufficient divinity
Thy name is my impossibility
I am not worth
Of reverence and respect

I have no more devotion
Nor fervor
Nor fervent love

Yet this shall be known
"In what will survive me
I am in harmony with my annihilation."

03. Head Held High

Rejoice! Awake!
All nations are lost
The plague wiped all
Consumed your flesh and your soul

Flower made of worms
In your broken hand
Crown of thorns
On your rotten head

All those years
Useless and meaningless
You are nothing more than
The vomit of your meaningless life

The poison is your name
The fruit of truth
Let you create nothing else but lies
Uou are sentenced to hell
And utter damnation
The abyss stares at you and brings you down
But not more than you do it to yourself

Like a leper among the living
Leeches on your chest
Crown of thorns on your head
Poisonous tongue in your mouth
Blind eyes, rotten face, broken skull

No sacred future
No holiness
Just never ending cycle of the fool
No prophecies about your worthless life
Lost in the desert of extinction
Stay on your knees forever and forevermore
With your head held high... on a spear

04. Reverence Lost
