Tracks



01. Saturnine

Scorn the sky with blade
Season the soil with blood

Push down a son, into the pit
Spare his eyes the pain of light
Fear the rise of a new dawn
Close the cycle, go out with ease

Those who walk at night
Will turn at your sight

What has grown in the stomach shall rise
Legions of your own blacken out the stars
Kneel for you've grown a family of foes
Fall back and receive the harvest of your wounds

Drowning, in my blood

02. Estrangement

Lost out in the cold
Tethers, stretched out and snapped
Pulling weathered old cordage
Fear to reap the fray

Moisture halos the vision
Fooled by lucent refraction
Nighted as eyes dry out
False motions caress

Vague indifference leads us alone
Paths erased, footprints erode
Call to nothing, reply to none
Detatched, unknowing we cry as one

Cast into imagined exile
Young dreams have long since died
Scream and gather no riposte
Consorts have aged apart

Feel insignificance drown out the world
False inventions sell my solace
Tired of lying to myself
Years I've longed for the void

Cast into imagined exile
Young dreams have long since died
Scream and gather no riposte
Consorts have aged apart

03. Carne Liberatus

Awaiting the gift of death
Carnal desires abated
Matters have grown insipid
Conscious lust for the beyond

The body is my anchor
Carrion I care not for
The world offers nothing
I don't need your love

In this vessel I stew
Boiling cistern of odium
Escape my pain internal
Dash into the aether

The body is my anchor
Carrion I care not for
The world offers nothing
I don't need your love

Feed the worms, forfeit the body

04. Inherent Opprobrium

Drift away again
Whispers across the night
Leave those who you befriend
Never come back again

Hide yourself and deceive
None will ever know the pain that reigns
Secrets you've kept in fear
Sick in the mind, forlorn, broken and doomed

Try to evade
Who you have made
Shadows never leave where your feet fall
You can't outrun the scars you've been dealt
Nowhere

Acceptance, a morn that never comes
Cruelty prevails
Torments old and rotten
Belittle and crush
Defiled by those above
Slither below
Perdition is internal
Memories entombed
Try to evade
Who you have made
Shadows never leave where your feet fall
You can't outrun the scars you've been dealt
Nowhere

Strength slowly corrodes
Wane into surrender
Washed under the tides
Wits finally collapse

Some things never let go
Tearing you down forever
Cesspool of grief and sorrow
I'll never forget their screams
