Tracks



01. Equus

Our fields alight
Is this a dream?
Glowing inferno
Reborn, red dawn
Searing, auric chariot
With karmic wheels, they burn again
The karmic wheels, turning again

Life devoured
The ruin, the blackened, these skinless halls
Bones laid bare, the bones of all
The garden deafened
To emerald’s end

Breathing synergy
Wild winds away - to glorify
Through the ashen haze
Reborn, black gaze
Searing, auric chariot
With karmic wheels, they turn again
The karmic wheels, burning again

Flame-kissed manes
Winds cascading dawn
Of Boudica born
The earthen canvas, rivers of scars
Coursing, hooves beating, breathless
Forgotten forever

Burning again, burning again
Burning again, burning again

Her name is Mother...
Mother - And hell follows with Her

From ashen cities, grey auras, behold her pale horses
Framed by hell and veiled from heaven - this Pandemonium
Tears upon scorched dreams, pouring into chasms that seethe
Tidings tolled, too late, drowning as the shadows unfold

Running - wild resistance
Bearing - the weight of the world
Rearing from the ghosts of the past
Dancing in clouds, dressage to the nameless dead
Echoed cries cast into the air

Inhaling the spirit of rein and ruin
All the rage
Exhaling what remains of reason
And this misery

All these memories
Fleeing - dying
Are these memories all dreams?
All these memories
Fear and pain, all...
Never to be free
All these memories

Fade away

Eyes closed to the sun, the sun
Lost in tears of silence

02. Misericorde I - As The Flesh Falls

Foresight - finite
Praised angels, as the flesh falls
War from within
Within

’Neath armour, this withered skin
Righteous and malignant
This poisoned pale
Glorious putrefaction

Pray - gauntlets in gleam
Wielding lights and lies
Blessings of disease
Life’s embrace
Blessings of disease
Life’s embrace

Malaise concealed, my shell
Of denial and dissonance
Darkest greys
Into the fray

Glancing of blades, the carbon tongues
Dance of crippled rebellion

Eyes inflamed by light
Praised angels, as the flesh falls
War from within
Within

Life defiled - faithless
Befouled, betrayed
Hand in hand - on hilt
Madness - Divine reason

Fleeting peace
Preordained
The struggling
Waning war cry
A painted shield
My decaying portrait
Foreseen, my limned last days

Shedding armour, unfurled wings
Failing, alone
Hail desolation

03. Misericorde II - Anatomy Of Quiescence

Fall into the abyss of the sky
Epitaph...
None of God, one of I
Rising celestial burial
Wordless cries
Quietus
Of the light

Precipice of all, I release myself
Radiant and real
Purged agony, all the grief
Acceptance, my arms aloft, my crucifix
Lived my way
Fall away

04. Suspyre

Kneel, convergence
Deformed to the will, oh heir of the air
And in this final judgement
The breath of farewell

Divergence, blood eagles
The vessel of vanity, breaking the cage
The pillar of being, life-lined maypole
Metanoia - lost
Writhing within timeless currents
A figurehead surging above
Ascension
Ascension

Aeolian
Life ephemeral
Soaring, reeling, free
Of mortality, winds empyreal
Awake
Of mortality, we are
We are nothing

Worlds disintegrate within worlds
Nebulous
Chaos detritus

As we rise
As we rise

Everywhere
Nowhere
Disintegrate
Light’s debris
Elemental
Shapeless
Evanesce

Aetheris
Our kingdom without walls
Draped in light's debris

Death, the one truth
All that we touch, all that we are
The shapeless, we evanesce
There is only nowhere
Inherit, inhale, the dust of kings
Rise to purity and silence
Deconstructed creation
Tear us apart

Aeolian
Life ephemeral
Soaring, reeling, free
Of mortality, winds empyreal
I’m awake, I’m awake
Empyreal, awake
Of mortality, we are
We are nothing

We are nothing
Inherit death
We are nothing
Inherit death

05. Graal

Dust of dissonance
The grey aura
Drift of the pariah
Of the gathering
Hauling ley lines
Through the catacombs
Weaving day into day
Within the reliquary
The heart that beats
The heart that beats is out of reach

Carry the stones
Of lapidation
The burden outcast
Walk the barren vast
Dragging the barren past

Wandering the ever gloaming
The introspection
Light’s miasma
Pilgrim
Eternity
The marching, the flayed
Pain of veils
Ossified
Desolation’s sea

Sorrow, the path to the end
Faceless horizon
Where silence listens to silence
Rippling call, of the holy grail
Gorge the blood of God
Blood of God of Self
Purge all poison
There is only dust
Humanity is gone

06. Anhedonia
