Becoming The Archetype - Celestial Completion lyrics



Tracks



01. The Resonant Frequency Of Flesh

There was a time
When we all sang the song of death
But now our bodies resonate
Our living souls reverberate
The music of eternal light

02. The Magnetic Sky

Here at the end of the world
Planets fall and we are rising
Soul and sky are magnetizing
Here at the end of the world
We are witnessing together
The inception of forever

Time begins to bend
And then it breaks
When it's all gone
We'll be movin' on, movin' on
Rising
Magnetizing

Lift the earth and like a wave
Carry us to shore
What a perfect
What a beautiful emptiness
And we will live forevermore

Crush the mountain in your hand
Drink the ocean dry
What a perfect
What a beautiful emptiness
To know that we will never die

A world within a world
A life that blooms in death
The blade that severs cleanly
Takes away the need for breath
A hand within a hand
A window in the eye
The heart becomes irrelevant
When the blood is on the outside

We have come alive
In this magnetic sky
We have come alive
And death shall be no more
This is what we were created for

03. Internal Illumination

Engage
Turn out the light
Internal illumination
And see, the earth is bright
With internal illumination

The ones who came before
Were only looking for decay
Forsaking and mistaking
What was hidden in their day

But now the veil is broken,
The light is clearly seen
The lines begin to blur
And reveal what's always been

Its rising, it's growing
And all our hearts are glowing
Its raining, it's flooding
And we can feel it in our bones

Don't believe your eyes
Don't accept the obvious
The light is growing brighter
Time is a face upon the water

Shadow veils perception
Breeds deception and false doubt
In the soil of assumption
Seeds of hopelessness are found

No more painting shadows
On the canvas of life
No more drinking water
Out of wells that are dry

04. Path Of The Beam

The crooked path is becoming straight
As we move toward perfection
That old black rider ever chasing
No longer sets the direction

We ride on a beam of light
On a wave of pure precision
Our souls arise in endless flight
And we are one in perfect fusion

We ride into the atmosphere
And leave the world behind
Ride because the end is here
No force on earth can hold us down

There is truth in the illusion
But do not be deceived
There is a greater purpose
Than what is easily perceived

The presence of the light increases
While everything is growing dim
This fleeting world withers away
Revealing beauty concealed within

The evidence of perfection grows
While kingdoms rise and fall
The souls of men are drawn to the source
That binds us all
Makes us who we are

We are the sleepless ones
The ones who will be changed
The living, breathing, body of light
And we've got freedom coursing through our veins

05. Music Of The Spheres: Requiem Aeternam Part I

[Instrumental]

06. Elemental Wrath: Requiem Aeternam Part II

Deep within the ocean's keep
There lies a corpse in endless sleep
A searchlight pierces the abyss
And the darkness groans in great distress

I am the ocean
Keeper of every darkened soul
The never ending throat of death
That swallows continents whole

Now the ground is shaking
Midst the grinding gears
Dead for the taking
An iron hand appears

Moving up through time and space
Sun and sky reveal their face
A shock runs though the atmosphere
The wrath of air awakens here

I am the blackened sky
Waters quake beneath my hand
I am the end of nations
That rains death upon the land

There is a void where the heart should be
But a stone has held its place
While there is likeness of the human form
No existence lights his face
Take this heart if you'd survive
The coming wrath
Now come alive

All the earth is silent
The universe has shifted
Creation holds is breath
As the curse of death is lifted

07. Xenosynthesis: Requiem Aeternam Part III

The heart of flesh has taken root inside
The light of life has been injected
Like circuitry across the expanse of space and time
Another darkened soul has been connected

Soli Deo Gloria
You can't save yourself

Enemies are rising up against the light
Yet it will go on shining even in the darkest night

Lifted up from the ocean's tomb
His body modified, surgically improved
Given a heart that never stops beating
Given lungs for underwater breathing

To return to the ocean floor
To walk among the dead below
Despite the flesh, light will outpour
And in darkness hope will grow

The ocean echoes back the music of eternity
The blackest sky gives way to perfect beauty
Requiem Aeternam
Soli Deo Gloria

08. Invisible Creature

[Instrumental]

09. Cardiac Rebellion

From somewhere in the darkest depths
Within the cloth of secrets kept
Out of silence death maintained
Resounds a voice that shakes the frame
Listen now unto the call
Like nothing heard before
Living hearts begin to crawl
Bursting forth through stubborn flesh

The invisible nature is taking over
Taking over from within
The invisible creature is breaking though
Breaking through the skin

Hey!
Clear the way!
It's a revolution!
Cardiac rebellion!

And now we see them marching
Dragging bodies in their wake
To the call there is no stopping
It is forever that's at stake

It's a cardiac rebellion
So join the revolution

10. Reflect/Refract

All the lights are burning bright
All our bodies taking flight
The shadows cast are evidence
There is a deeper world than this
Hearts like candles light the way
Turning darkness into day
Let us all this light absorb
Until at last we are no more

Yet I am just a prism
Ceaselessly refracting
All of the light you are exacting

Flesh is dissolving in the light
Soaking the soul in radiation
The pathogens take hold at once
And begin transformation

Father of lights
Shine upon us here
Take the darkness from our hearts
Make it disappear

Reflect, refract
Break me
Remake me
A mirror that reflects your glory
Break me
Remake me
A mirror that reflects you perfectly

11. Breathing Light

The final chapter has already been written
The story has been told
In another dimension, beyond the reach of time
There is no more, no more to behold

See the artificial light now
It is flickering, fading away
Eternity is right now
It is fusing with today

Breathing light
We anticipate
Breathing light
Or suffocate

See the darkness that conceals you
Evaporating, exposing the soul
And as the light reveals you
Let it in, let it take control

As death corrupts
Beauty is revealed
As the whole world falls apart
Broken souls are healed

We are breathing light
It sets our hearts glow
We are breathing light
Eternal is the overflow
