LYRICS: On a cold and barren wasteland Beneath a rocky rise Walks the lonely titan That stole the holy fire from the gods And to say that we failed him Oh, it would mean that we tried And thus the spark that set in motion The unassuming earth Has fizzled through the endless days From all the unawakened minds it burned Then the silence in space No reflection, no echo, no sound There to witness Prometheus unbound All those that strive And all those that never will abide Are stuck together in eternal toil Soaking in blood the fruitless soil Through the march Of a hundred reasons It stays in place and Serves its demons Will you help it as it cries? And it cries, oh and it cries The architect of its own demise The wearer of the slyest guise The master of the shoal The watcher of the rise All hold now the holy gift of fire And after such hurt still with much ire Dwell down in dirt For the present is dire A well of charred embers Past ages crowd on thee But each one remembers When the future was dark And the present was spread Like a pillow of thorns For thy slumberless head From endless wake From within myself your I is taken Of him and thee now I am forsaken He saw creation that you assembled And in his mighty hands his lightnings trembled And they heed his will no more Oh, the forlorn You will one day blaze and rise Not to be the slaves of the winds and tides

LYRICS: Through centuries moving Slowly drifting away from the rupturing side And keenly observing As you jump into streams of lies There is no greater grandeur Than to be true to notions of your inner flames But as you uphold the flesh There's all your concubines Starting to take the reins When the worlds align And the wounds abate Time will anchor each man to his fate Through constant erosion You're burning the sky And the duality That is Gemini The captor is captured And through many ordeals he was carefully tamed Only a mental castration Would even think that he wants to be saved No time to reposition From unknown sources my sorrows they stem No room for maneuvers I'm only left with time to time it again (Centuries) And as I face the hounds (Fall on me) In primordial states (I tumble down) Father anchors us both to our fates All the reality Is watching us die The singularity That was Gemini The limit to dilated pupils is iris And when it breaks black will spread over your eyes Stand aside And tune in your mind Observe as the falcons are soaring the skies While dogs They bite And in starless night Bark in the shadows of their master's might

LYRICS: And so it moves Moves by its silicon cortex and preprogrammed cues And so we bend Relaying end of the meaning as means to an end A new peak for the entirety of our modern race To bow down and worship a line of code with human face And to think that we've come somewhere far But the doors of perception are only opened up ajar After all it's binary It's either real or not Say, in this life If merely to take part is to participate? When it shatters like glass Under the smallest weight Changing my words with bullets Nine thousand rounds per second And now great anger is filling up your inner gauge So you need a target to direct all of your rage And of course you have been chosen A liberator helping us to disengage And so you're ripping And clawing through circuits with inhuman might It opens But inside the casing there's no guiding light The reality is not what you make The end of the path is the steps you take So, do not loathe the machine For the machine is you

LYRICS: In my dreams I long for solace and news that are carried by swallows from battlefields And how it seems That the whispers of sunlight through blinds now torment me All that I want is unknown to me All but my longing for you Until the envoys come I'll have to bide my Time Warlords Torn by the gales and thunder In catatonic haze And keening of their mothers That count the days In the mists of the smoldering sage A sage that bears false wisdom The wisdom of an age Of virtue that is bygone That set the stage For the culling that’s just begun Begun to free the demons From the manacles of taste Of the chance that forked our tongues Two rivers that are flowing Into the mouths of wrath Will never earn the favor In the aftermath Do not give in When every casket from battlefields Brings back a salvo of tears Then to our inwards we will take a look Through a kaleidoscope of fears Reflecting on our past Lyre That played for the vassals by units sold Overture We were craven to question our overlords Hold and baste In a conundrum of some acquired taste To all but the few that were ready for you To deject and self-reflect That is known To even the animal that knows no more than the walls that limit its world Walk Through the lives that you lived in the future Make a book out of every page And limit the influence of ardor For the elusive serenity all the way Through the heredity of taste Muck and scum of the worst order Drink the essence of utter dismay Force Push your heart to look for upholders Break all your sorrow Out pours the ichor from my veins Like some incandescent tar Will the murmurs embellish the tacit chains As the rancor of ages goes Down pours the effervescent rain And leaves an alabaster scar And what is fate? A phantasm, a mime? Unobstructed by the passage of time The unappealing master of lives it suppresses me My heart it is all hollowed out The husk is all that remains I held his letter in my hand, And even while I read The lightning flashed across the land The word that he was dead.

LYRICS: What sins have I committed with my eyes? Only the silence there remains And what have I done to upset the gods? And to bear the weight and blame of all their rage? There’s many thorns here within us But there's always one other way We just have to keep on struggling Until the storm goes away Pain of the believer That's tipping one end of the scales And bleeds for the deceiver That's pushing you off of the rails now Like a rampage of a thousand gods It crawls up inside you and leaves only blight Falser than a million nods From light comes as shadows from shadows as light I look at the skies And I feel the raindrops as they fall on me A part of me dies And I hear the waters they are closing in

LYRICS: Like a meteor shooting through space and time Breaking the clouds and destroying the stillness Crack opens the sky A radiant maiden of beauty untold Rose from the crater like a mighty valkyrie From the stories of old I could feel her pulse as she gazed upon me A trembling sensation tremored my soul As she said unto me: “Hail traveler I hold a gift and bear a curse And I am yours And there is more that I can do, do for you If you listen to your reason And allow me into you.” I hear your proposal and honor your aid But there is one thing that now here must be said: The burden you carry cannot be shared The chaos within you bore a dancing star And both are within you eternally present Like the earth and the sky The music you show me is one I cannot hear Imposing it on me - it is not your decision All men must be free Say what you will This is a key to many doors And now I feel that there is only one solution For this thorn within me That is my silent company

LYRICS: There goes The last nail, the coffin, the sand flows Glass porous Between the last pores seep the residuals To the vipers and the vermin that scatter the bliss Between the walls and the towers of Dis Curse the rain that bludgeons over Into eternity moreover falls Taurus That moves wrong and grows strong Becoming A simulacrum of sin and despair Bodes Precisely as it was intended to 'Till it aborts When it boils down into the malignance Plows through its mouth In search of a meaning A hidden spark Of a life demeaning Clouded by barbiturates the reel rolls slower The light it imitates still grows colder Hades Inverted mountains of madness Evil wings in darkness beating The deepest pit of silky sadness Vultures at the spirit eating The soul it goes From the fragments a miniscule hiss From this shell where I abode To the walls and towers of Dis All the vermin now scatter the load Say in the end that there is No temple, no splendor, no art Greater than the beating Of a living human heart.

LYRICS: A form most inanimate starts to move on its own He's gazing, petrified, at the face it's making while his soul is shaking Indescribable An acolyte aghast Rages Courage as his tailwind Mortality his weapon He runs away at last Oh devourer of time I am not the one who mourns I am what you make me Infinite are your forms Mother You are the first cause The eternal one Of anger you are That blocks out the sun Turn your faces Towards your ill-fated son And to fix this I will do what must be done Upon the altar the fires are lit And stony petals are surrounding it The sermon on the mound Became frozen When the lightning struck the ground The restless congregation still there it stays In front of the statue's immovable gaze And prays: ''We brought you a prophet, a chanter, a speaker to stars! Come on sweet mother now why won't you open your arms? A sacrifice to you to save us from terrible dread Harvest our bodies, but save our souls instead So that now, from the ashes of our lives, all forms will rise!“

LYRICS: It rose From shriveled dust From the bones of a steed From the eyes of the night And into being They say that it is morose No, I have no words to say Behold In throes It harvests as it goes To dust from leaves Among the cedar trees With all of its caresses Forget now what you know Oh, and what will be tomorrow? Lord, the heavens only know Oh, it does not feel the sorrow Roam, the eyes they seek escape Say more Silence is intrepid Wounds that scar up But not those synaptic Beat Take Fondle the fleeting moment Songs of sacred atonement Kneel Fool Fetch A chalice for another round One rip It groans The sinews of its stones Behind hive laws It's readying its claws A bell chimes Three times In an intermittent jive Sublime When the beast becomes alive...
