01. The Blood Of The Wicked Shall Entomb The Earth

Rend the sinews of the
Viscous simulacrum
Separate
And inspect what lies between (between)
Serpentine coiling cords
Gaze long into the glare
Fibrous and fraying at the ends
Betraying the hidden delights (delights)

Wrapped claustrophobically tight
Tear, Tear them away
Where, where is the light

Serpentine cords
Fibrous and fraying
Tear them away
Where is the light

Cut from bleeding cloth
A Cursed wanderer
Dragging self closer to realms

A Maddening lurch
Toward cloud drown lands
Cut from cloth bleeding
A Cursed wanderer
Dragging self closer to realms endless

Where is the light
It no longer shines amidst this tomb
Wretched each of us are
Gods eyes are blind to me
To thee
A world of sinners and cowards alike
Crawling like worms though carrion
Unable to eat

See now what perversion they mend the cloth
What lies they gorge upon.
Woe, woe, woe
Is Me

Where is the light?

02. Throne Of Perversion

Softly caress the sword
Run your tongue slow across the blade
Let your blood sing it’s praise
Worship it’s cutting edge
Accept its gracious gifts
Return just a little essence

Supple flesh drawn red razor thin
Gently parting
Stretching ear to ear
Accept it.

Press it a little deeper into your flesh
Tease it down to the bone
Bite your lip and
Let your eyes roll
A little more ecstasy drips
You’re sick
Bloods tainted
We need to get it out
Give it more
But there’s less than last time.

Slide it in a little further
And you’ll be a little closer

Bite your lip and let your eyes roll
You’re sick bloods tainted
We need to get it out
Give it more
But there’s less than last time

Pain is proof of devotion

Don’t disappoint
Honor with your essence.

Softly caress the sword
Run your tongue slow across the blade
Let your blood sing it’s praise
Worship it’s cutting edge
Accept its gracious gifts
Return just a little essence

Gods eyes are blind to me
To thee
A world of sinners and cowards alike
Crawling like worms through carrion
Unable to eat

Softly caress the sword
Run your tongue slow across the blade
Let your blood sing it’s praise
Worship it’s cutting edge

03. Rites Of Malignancy

The husk will wither once more
Reborn you shall know of my arrival
By the sounding of the bells

The seas and sands of time collide
Violently as to shake the slumbering
Each god of old arise
To retake a throne
The deafening roar of the silent sea
Drowning all mortals in madness
Dormant dwellers now stir

Called forth
The rites of malignancy
Commence

Cancerous will be they
A god blight called forth
Worship with final breath
Moments of ecstasy
Snuffed short
With elaborate suffering
A moment of eternity
Capturing the immensity
Be still now
The world is no longer yours to rule

The husk will wither once more
Reborn
You shall know of my arrival
by the sounding of the bells
Marked by chaos’ apocalyptic seal
You will know my name
By the wailings of despair.

The very essence of virtue dries before my step
You will know death
Wither once more in my presence
Take heed blessed knower of doom
For my name spells demise

The swarm
Unrelenting
Threatens to black out the sky forever.

04. Apparition

[Instrumental]

05. The Unbearable Stench Of Malediction

Curse Fouled Breath Reeking

Speaking tongues
known not to man
Conscious Corners splinter
Sickly Specters Lurking
Edges of reality fracturing
Diabolic overwhelming
Cacophony

They won’t silence
sickening moldered tongues
Cease! Let me be.

Faintest shivered touch
A tittering voice
occupies a space
between conscious thought

What does it want?!

Inescapable Effluvium
Mind flushing Miasma
The fetor of conscious decay

Horrid is this

Horrid is this hell

Speaking tongues
known not to man
Sickly Specters Lurk
Edges of reality fracturing
Giving way to not but cacophony

Dormant dwellers now stir
A god blight called forth
Worship with final breath
Our father.
Blessed be the bastard
Just as bastards are we.
Unloved
From the dust
Hated hearts within
Fated life without
Cacophonous

06. Cruciatum Aeternum

When the light goes out
When the flames die down

They come with promises of storms on their lips
The pendulum again swings heavy
Striking Each Hour Deeper Despair
The clockworks steady ticking company
Counts down
Don’t let it in
Don’t listen to the whispers flittering betwixt

The burgeoning glow
Threatened by the cold Alone
Growing over the mold in the corners lurch
Where have the heavens gone
How the Helpless these mewling echoes
A nameless formless malevolence
Recognized through instinct alone.

Am I as evil as that which haunts
Is it me beyond the veil?

A warning? A promise?
The clocks hour strikes later
The end is nigh now

Helpless these hands
Which have wrung the threads of fate
Only to wring blood from the frayed cloth

Where has the light gone?
A warning? A promise?
The clocks hour strikes ever later
Yet the the end is nigh now
The end is nigh

A nameless formless malevolence
Recognized through instinct alone
I am that which is beyond the veil
I am the evil which haunts

07. Abjection

[Instrumental]

08. Wombs Of Depravation

The swarm unrelenting
threatens to black the sky
The forest grows darker still
the great beasts which stalk
grow ever bolder
The glow of their eyes in the growing gloom
Betray their lurking forms
Wicked with dagger like teeth
The suns inextricable swallowing

Now never again to pierce the sky.
Light bearers rejoice atop newfound thrones

The rivers again bloodied
Sallow eyed servants draw the taint
Those who must brave the gloom
Lest greater still misfortune is to follow

Abject horrors to suffer subjective text
Which scrawls their existence in blood
Depraved ramblings are they.

How short lived it is.
The ghosts of the past will not sleep
Nor haunt
But stare idly and oddly

Not haunt
But stare idly and oddly

The seas and sands of time
Collide as to shake the slumbering

The pendulum creaking
Keeping maddening consistency
Striking each hour deeper despair

We’ve lost our way
The map is blank
The laughter of the dark one consumes

My name is the wailings of despair.
The lightbearers lament
Now black out the sky forever

The ghosts of the past will not sleep
Nor haunt
But stare idly and oddly

09. Nil

[Instrumental]
