Scorn concealed within the reviled Stripped of its frail grasp To not be absolved Invoking false deliverance Crushing rage renders the weak forgotten
Drown in tides gripping the dead Become what is dictated by oath
Salvage nothing from the ruins
Infernos of blinding hatred Will shelter the grave malefaction Cleanse your hands of these wounds Pierced by fear, with hope now diminished
Concede no pity The malignant shroud darkens all souls
Strangling the life from scoured skin Iniquity turns to silence Only blood of corrosion infects the ascendant
Drained until hollow Remain empty Abdicate from final vows
The last rites have been spoken Isolation swallows everything
Idle as it burns to ember
Exhale the Ash
Viral compulsion born of fractured humanity Blindly advance by pronouncements of all against all Fragment the reason for being Consume the vacuous, the disillusion
Lay to waste And relinquish the earth ablaze
Unshackled, go forth with eyes glazed over Define your purpose as the riches of sin Bled out from the remnants
Fallen All bonds broken Forged of lies The end has been written By our ascent
Exalt nothing
Roots torn from beneath all Adorned with scars of excess In eulogy we will not be absolved
Retreat from sanctity Possessors not of time nor hope Confront extinction To repent, but not endure
Fallen All bonds broken Forged of lies Entrenched and held within Relinquish the covenant
The rot cannot be drawn from dead veins Unremitting in worship of empty gods Return to the dawn Before invoking our own suffering
Bear witness to what is before us Dissolve all the illusions Be brought back down to ashes
Stare Into Death And Be Still
At war with no enemy But the dearth of our will Far too late to wake from this doubt Intransigent in the face of the end
Banished to a fate worse than death
No worth remains of this condemned existence Soon to be annulled
Transpire, from order to chaos The messiah of alienation Deliver us to these ends we have dreamt
Where the faintest light is now smothered Devoured by the grief
Sink deeper into the abyss Buried under the flaws we disown Starved of breath And fearing the detachment from all Submit to unseen tyranny
We have reached the brink of this terminal world
Stare into death and be still The darkness ahead mirrors a past of ruin Barely lived Every fire exhausted Awaiting surrender
There is No Horizon
Glares of submission and fear Cast down on the unknown Drift beyond obscurity And become fatal Silenced by anguish Carry the burden of the dejected With blank and hateful eyes With worn expressions It cannot prevail
The failing instilled in us To prophesise a barren hellscape
There is no horizon No coming of the next light
Enclosing minds Gripped tight to the only escape Eroding away
Become lifeless
As we approach total collapse Raze it to the ground Under which all will return
Unravel veneration of the infinite Which stains all in its wake Elicit meaning And sever those who reject
There is no horizon No coming of the next light
Divide and reclaim Invoke upheaval Of the insipid and worthless law That again pulls in the helpless
Inversion
Subversion deep within And across totality Invert the decaying nature To renew as affliction Muted in suffocating pain
Never subside Never betray
Distant figures Immersed in their lifeless conception Becoming the divided, bitter and cold
Never subside The horror of endless waking
As its shadow Beholden and enslaved in disdain
Dread obliteration Veil with misery Only an imprint on the arid and meaningless
Immolate the tortured cries Emaciate all They regress and adhere
The agony draws near Inside each trace of blood It withers and dies
Visceral Ends
Reaching for the last breath of a dying flame It slips from fearful clutches Shattered and lost
The sickening inertia Inherent, unawakened
Created in the image of death and destruction Time weighs down on the broken Tarnished light must fade
Falter at the first obstruction Cannot subdue that which embodies all
Exist for the visceral ends No more than dust
Drawn Into The Next Void
Succumb to total disavowal The sudden emptiness descends All that is known is mortality And guilt crawling beneath the skin
Bow before your doubt Within the prison of a frail shell Embrace the condition of hopelessness From eminence that will never be
Fail to revoke the torment To abstain from all evil Forgive us the permanent Depart from this wretched curse Fade into the inhuman
There can be no stay of self execution
Bow before your doubt Within the prison of a frail shell Embrace the condition of hopelessness Beg to conceal and deny
It will not be mistaken This is the absolute Inhale deceit of the reckoning
Inhale deceit Drawn into the next void
Dissolved Orders
Stare down on the defeated Declare the puritan Command by doctrine Feed off the backs of the dismal
Obey contempt Give in as confines on this loathing fray Ripped apart And the aversion will vanish
To be unmasked
Disappear for any hope at redemption Beset by shame
The scourge left trailing the parasitic Entire orders eaten away from the inside Wrung dry and spat out
They would turn in disgust If there were any will to look back on
Cede to the unyielding Fed by repulsion granted in shame Bring an end to the reign of the cursed
The scourge left trailing the parasitic Entire orders eaten away from the inside Wrung dry and spat out
No halting the flood’s advance Let it wash over No halting the flood’s advance See it through to the end
Abrogation
Against the tide of empire To which we are wedded To which we are nailed Exorcising every breath and whim Strangling the hosts Desperate and complicit Burning for grand illusions
Idolatry of power Immersion of self We are fixed in a moment of time But sooner imagine annihilation
In the minds of all Implanted death Annihilation
The burning and longing are unmet
Delusions of being in the midst of all We are but a speck of dirt in hell
Walls of futility tower above Transparent to the weak and oblivious Built with betrayal Unbroken by mutiny Betrayal of their own accord
The burning and longing can never be met
Perish in the fervour For everything and nothing Bring down what remains Forfeit all for annihilation
Yield to Naught
Never awaken from depths of despair Defined by the profane Endured by pathology They cannot be held below
The struggle dying with each passive thrall With each convert to self abhorrence
Distortions of former selves Veil the sickness and fear To never awaken
Refuse attribution Succumbing to the trial of constriction
In chaos Witness the inversion The reverent become the abject Adopting blackened hearts To reject all cause
Veil the sickness and fear To never awaken
The pure and virtuous scorched in their wake Bled by unabated scorn To bleed and endure
Blackened hearts Not only inherit fortune But also failure And reject all cause
Only within dreams of envy Are we born into an abyss of untread paths Of unmade worlds To reject all cause All circumstance And yield to naught
There Are No Saviours
Birthed inside Unending conflict It is our making and destruction The machination of man Tearing through foundations Left conditioned and numb
Content to pull insidious skin over tortured eyes Fulfilled and blind
The rest; the waste are buried No eulogies No remembrance There are no saviours No restraining our past from devouring the present No beginning that won’t end us
Corrupted cold existence Embedded by bankrupt voices and hollow words Spewing fear, echoed by instinct We face the anguished truth The beginning is the end
Bound within empty bodies Captive in shells, obscure and imperfect To wither
To acquiesce and obey Is to wither
Shrines of Paralysis
Kneel before craven decrees Admonished from on high Chained to a perception of flawless mortals Within shrines of closed minds
The affliction of man There are none immune
Cling to destructive ideals To figments of rapture Until the final hours None will concede
Straying from the passages which we have carved ourselves With indignation glaring from reflections All that remains from the burdens of flowing blood Are expanses of dust Effigies of false purpose Corroding
The final hours are not for remorse But for contempt
With ascendancy weighing down Plead to the shrines Release us
We must tie the ends of unknown Withdraw into the pale In this sanctuary of death Revere the inertia Resisting breath Turn away all prayers
The collapse is owed to stagnation Shrines of paralysis
Bow to Spite
Exiles of reason Transfigure to live by ordinance Bow to spite
Chasm of Fire
The dread of what will come of this With fatal eyes over a sinking world Staring through death We suffocate in open air
Floods born of malign neglect Rising as we are still
Reflections of resentment Of the silent and unflinching beings Once complicit It is known It is treason
The wretched and spineless souls Dragged through misery Into the approaching darkness A void worthy of them Worthy of the unresigned Submit
Chasm of fire encircles conceited hope They succumb not alone But with us dragged beneath
Become the menial Become the servile Become the orphan and the abandoned Become the specter of the righteous
The sun will swallow the earth But only after it has choked before its time Long before its time
Extinguished Light
Grasping the cowardice that brought us here Willing old faults to surface And continue carrying us to ruin
The narrow tunnel of light further closing in Enveloping the already dying
There is no road to redemption
The paradox is that we are ever more disparate Ever more divergent Out of reach of repair Yet never untied from the other Never unbound from what’s etched into the husk Never absolved
Stripped from each fragment of bone Recurring endless
Shattered resolve Fractured and forbidden to witness Sheltered from the agony of self dissent
In the face of all in reversal They were worthless Pitiful and hopeless
Extinguish this light which befell us We have proven to be unworthy Extinguish this light which befell us Pitch black
End the Hope
Command the ear of the entangled And they will listen, vision blinkered No more strength to withstand the inevitable The now impending judgment
Exonerate the powerless and weak-willed
Those with no right to be in awe of surrounding decay Of colliding frailty and malice Lost in darkness of regret
Our names are left nowhere in scarred ground we walk over End the hope End the veneration
Edge toward the realisation of denial Still cowering
Exonerate the powerless and weak-willed Because to emerge from refuge Is to cede we have fallen
End the hope End the veneration Annul the monolith to which we gave rise Total reversion
Odium
The parasites inhale, devour and discard Vermis
Vermis
Before an empty gaze Stand to proclaim the end The corrupt control and deliver fate Bring ruin upon us
When we lie abject before them Erode our being Denounce the visceral Absolve our fear
These are the depths of the repressed Condemned to descend further
Awaken to the manifest The air devoid of honour
Stained truth will blacken all There is no more light I will die before I succumb to indoctrination Declare war
Revere; exalt At the word of the vermin Surrender
Weigh on the complicit A black mark Indelible shame Their names to endure suffering The judgement laid before me It will not rest
The ground cannot be upturned To retract the past To bury our sin Our error will bear consequence
Misled by the spineless Regress Silenced by the callow We cannot retreat
See the evil, falling dark Hear the evil in clear warning We dare not speak
Clutching Revulsion
Lost in the implicit unknown Impetuous dissent Reject the cold and lifeless order Offer nothing but reproach
Devalue the thoughtless waking breath To belittle unseen dejection Beyond concern of the impassive The unavailing diminished
Adrift in salvation Enraged to affliction
I am beholden to no one The world disavowed Deconstructing adversity In fear
The aggrieved are without claim Without sentence Clutching revulsion For those whose fear is just
Reckoning is upon the meek
Weight of Emptiness
The drones march through barren wasteland Without expression Broken souls corroded by fear Deprivation exhausts the last fire
Their will is buried Within hearts of black ash Gasping for air Beneath the weight of empty minds
The paralysis of isolation
Exist in parallel Exist in ignorance Divorce and dismiss
From deep in the abyss There is no release
Confronting Entropy
No pity for the destitute Of the land stained in blood Left deserted to face futility
We must not dream of virtue Us poisoned elite We are void
Decry the willing Decry the resolute The desperate grasp releasing In refusal to subsist
An endless aperture Is the essence of their disposition Obtuse at the surface Pernicious in being
Cut through the superficial, cursory effusion
What is ignored in the present Will be resurrected
The forsaken confront entropy Alone, helpless, wandering toward demise
The Imperious Weak
Eyes of the viral and absolute To never be met as equal Pollute the masses Their past ordained Their future annulled For the dominion of the vain
Dictate the righteous Inhuman decree Boundless hate and callousness Spare no blood Not the congenial nor kindred The austere concede only to their means And their ends served only in death
Inside the fractured mind lay decrepit convictions Embedded and never erased
Unashamed Unchallenged Unmoved The imperious weak
Becoming damnation Assure the path to infamy Fall to opprobrium
Within the prison bereft of hope Collapse is determined
Unashamed Unchallenged Unmoved The imperious weak
Cessation
Hollow guise of the betrayer of man Lead us blind Immersed in contempt for all Embodied; consumed by their dogma
The doctrine of nothingness
We have reached a dead end The idle are no longer ignorant
Pull us through the path of dirt To be admonished Drag us under the current To a slow death
Embrace the resentment Withdraw from the mind Be cast above the masses Command on high
Worship Emanate Control Infect
This end long written Under thin skin of the self-serving
See through the enduring Denounced from beneath the burden Owed not another word
Await Rescission
Call upon the apparition To answer a fervour for cessation of time So thinly veiled yet resolute Submit and become worthless
Unchain totality And be witness to chaos
Darkness Cold and vacuous Sink under its power Swallow those within
They of unjust order
Frail Broken Mortal
I am released Upon acknowledging our terminal nature Liberated from immortality
All that has amassed May not be long of life
Disown in vain Await rescission
We will remain stagnant Before observing the reflection without prejudice
Frail Broken Mortal
Burning Skies
Atop the shameless tower With wings outstretched An apprehensive shadow is cast over all Drain us of our divinity And leave us dry amongst the dirt of men
In the worst of our nightmares we are weak and servile We, as martyrs Fear runs through our veins Hung for grandeur and fate We hang lifeless
With blind eyes turned from daylight We deny With blind eyes turned from the glare of being Loathe that which we are
I abhor the undiscerning No more of my blood will be shed of pity With an empty and unforgiving heart Once more, I scream to the sky
For I am mine The rot of subordination I burn away
I am mine
Dead Oceans
The primeval genesis Etched into forgotten flesh In darkness, oblivious, we exist to no avail
To no avail To never unearth
The insipid with their deadpan stare Long for worth in dying oceans To never unearth
By the scorn of weakness Lay me to rest
Rip away the flesh we scarred with god And scour our bones for deceit Beneath the black shroud of abandon lay fields of us Our bodies still; our minds hollow and sightless
Here we lay, nothing without deceit
The immortal, reflected in dead oceans Drowned by frailty tied at their feet Even still in death, this falls on deaf ears
I am the eyes of our inception Sewn shut
Cold Becoming
Sleep now, willing hosts In envy, accede to this void of life so bleak and fragile There is only silence here No resistance
A silent corrosion of mind
This innocence lost The tide long retreating You cannot see above the walls, encircling high
This sanctuary and its need, infectious You will not see again The infected will never see again
To claim this as nothing You should not be of this world
Of those who preach death Your words are poison And those of stone in apathy You crawl with them
You crawl with them in decay
This cold becoming never dethroned
Of those who claim this fire as nothing I will forever despise
Beneath
Rejection In gasping air from vast surrounds Subjection to all that breathes it Suffocate in the idle and empty It calls for no one
The beast of no will Gives rise the servants of cause They hold their breath as it sets behind the hill Banishing them to the dark
It will set and rise again and again
Speaking only of your end It pierces your unyielding pretense The illusion shattered and exhausted
It will set and rise Dull and fruitless It will set and rise again and again With no ambition
The Hollow Idols
Shallow worship of the azure and the earth Not as they are or have been Betrayed and distorted Dragged through tarnished waters and purged in tongues Gouge no deeper For our hollow souls are upon us
Our hollow souls, our enemies, upon us
The marred hands of our leper idols wring us of all hope Our hollow idols wring us of all hope
We have betrayed ourselves And now forever lie dormant
Trailing this solemn road at dusk At its end, we leave no mark We have no future We will be rightfully forgotten
Omens
The reverence of those lost owed to the land To us it is withered and worthless To us it does not belong
What of this radiance we have left behind?
Creatures of abyss, born of vice We are not they They preach chaos and delusion And welcome it without breath
With the omens in flame We are still; we desert the truth
Truth has no name here Anonymous in clouded vision Our disgrace, far from reach Left unknown
The Destroyers of All
They fall from spoiled skies Strangled of grace And know only to mask their vile faces
They know not the figure staring back at them; Not their beginning nor end They surrender in blissful fate
The undying pariah To which the cowards shun and beg remission Cold-blooded and callous It does not grieve
It will never grieve
So detached, the destroyers Wide eyed in rapture and unfulfilled In ignorance they remain Until their ruin
Bring me the comfort of cold inertia Bring me the graves, poised for our leaden demise
Our extinction, seeded in blind avarice
Come dawn, no light will be thrown on them This vermin, these ingrates Us of the earth The destroyers of all
Drown Within
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
We are Nil
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
Withered and Obsolete
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
Caecus
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
Tyranny
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
The Earth at its Knees
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
Soullessness Embraced
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
Everything is Fire
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
