Evoke the lifesblood of man
The virus we have become Shedding the skin and bone Of this species, dead and jaded In my callous nature All pity is buried Flaunt your feigned empathy Forgotten I cannot breathe amongst this affliction Ever more oppressed Tear away the leeches And with them, we'll bleed Strip bare the land, defraud Or drown within forever The dust settles on barren dirt In our chains, we decay Bound by deceit The mortal consumed Beyond death We are lifeless The axiom of being Infinite 02. We Are Nil Music by Michael Hoggard / Jamie Saint Merat Lyrics by Paul Kelland
The eye burns bright
Laced with scars of deceit Gazing into the void - the enemy Betrayed A dissident reality Dig deep beneath your skin Scratches of denial, of emptiness Inherit unreason Beg for fate For we have wasted away Lay low The unseen lucid In an age, fragile and expired Emancipate This collective conscious reeks of shadowed delusion Existence is fear A saviour from the surrogate utopia So weep your blood sincere Drowning in the deadest sky Grasping the exhausted ashes of hope Crowned in absolution The eternal fallen Suffocate We are nil 03. Withered And Obsolete Music by Michael Hoggard / Jamie Saint Merat Lyrics by Paul Kelland
The faces aghast
Consumed with hollow judgment Those vacant eyes stare through me With scarred hands to bind They look back in fear Fall into the flames of our origin To lie still and wait The baseless reverence you adjure Is condemned by truth Your divine, cast down from the skies Cold and wretched It runs through our veins This is absolute This is inherent The spiritual will sever ties with man And now alone we exist From within us Our worth ascends Subvert the fallacy A dying breed on their knees The scorn of the earth Obsolete Subvert the fallacy A dying breed on their knees And now alone we exist The scorn of the earth - the puritan These days are no anomaly Your blood will spill like any other Within the mercy of this revelation We are forever imprisoned 04. Caecus Music by Michael Hoggard / Jamie Saint Merat Lyrics by Paul Kelland
The helpless wander in vain
To forget all before them This inner sanction A blinding vision Through neglect we falter All are subservient To burn out the absolute Shadow our nature Crawl into the darkest of holes With reason forbidden we fade And our shattered remains will lay to waste This is our weakness, our failing Suffer at the hands of those we feed With wounds to show for nothing Breathe the ashes of our burning past To swallow whole, the denial These self-conceived walls close in upon us And we shall never see the light of day 05. Tyranny Music by Michael Hoggard / Jamie Saint Merat Lyrics by Paul Kelland
Shadowing the blinding light
From within our confinement The hollow stare of thousands pierce the soul Reject the innate And no solace will prevail Our bloodless tower over all With their eyes full of god They are blind to our dawn Scream to the silent masses Caution to their winds of contempt Release me To rise from their ruins The roots of the mortal Masked with our atrophy Born of man, the tyrant Reborn 06. The Earth At Its Knees Music by Michael Hoggard / Jamie Saint Merat Lyrics by Paul Kelland
The misguided rise now
Untainted and pure Stand in ignorance And fall in neglect In inherent sorrow Rip open your heart for me The undeserving Grieve for all From rise to fall We preach our dream Dishonour With the coldest shoulder The balance is broken So with disdain you may burn me forever In anti-human desperation This is the horror that binds us all Buried beneath with our martyrs Buried beneath with our scapegoats The earth falls to its knees The misguided rise now Untainted and pure Stand in ignorance Our devotion Our redemption Are our own My eyes are open 07. Soullessness Embraced Music by Michael Hoggard / Jamie Saint Merat Lyrics by Paul Kelland
Etched into the earth's effigy
The graven image of man Inhale your idols and parasites Cold blood of the declining all Visions of desire cut deep Reject them and rot Rot away in worthlessness In fear, in isolation, in realisation In fear of inferiority Swallow the blunt reality This earth bleeds for no one Indifference is your existence Indifference is your execution Cower in shame The shadow stalks in the wake of regret My eyes roll back to never see again And on my deathbed I remain silent I cannot uphold the dogma I will not shed this trusting secret The coming soullessness embraced Darkness Fortitude Nothing 08. Everything Is Fire Music by Michael Hoggard / Jamie Saint Merat Lyrics by Paul Kelland
To our end
To our blackest days we have come Our demise, barren and futile We are lost without fate Reap what we have sown We diminish, all nameless And the realisation manifests Only once will this burn To diminish, all nameless Only once will this ever burn Recreate our failure To relive, to revel in the boundless shift For the bane of man and of all Is now imminent And the realisation manifests Only once will this burn And the realisation manifests For nothing we know The hollow will of the undying faithful Belies us Belies our being Between this state and the next We are lost We are without fate This burning inside cannot be defined Our empty convictions erode in time Stand on the edge of abandon And stare into the searing sun Forfeit now For nothing we know Everything is fire |
