The barren ground yields no life The world around is a changing soul How far we have let this go Rays of light come in low Apparatus changing Blinding, hard to see Existential apathy inside Wasteland where nothing grows Our Doom Rise from this earth Self-righteous heart is yours Rise and absolve this land Reaching for the sun Rise and know thyself As we mark this time, decayed earth. Limbs of fallen victims clawing at the will to live. I’ve damaged myself trying to find a cure for all expired matter. This crisis has reached its peak. I’m dying here with not a chance of survival. Wait and see time will tell what follows. Derived from our pure neglect. This harsh world is ours But we wish for escape A test of restraint That we have failed The state of decay has grown beyond saving The last of our lives soon gone A breathless song undone I watch them fall enslaved To a world dissolved In the shadow of ash we fall A slave to our graves The passing of time will show our efforts resigned The broken will of broken men baring teeth in the end The last sight of hope taken by a blackened sky Realize that these are not dreams alone
3.	Observation 06:58	lyrics	buy track
Suffer, in your head you must hide. Alone, with no place on this earth. Echoing fear, find the source of the noise. Deafening halls, dimly lit with wax. Submit to suffocating thoughts in my mind. Observe what this life has taken from me. Let these words ring true in my head. With a light heart, heavy mind inside. This bright light fades into constant strife and pain. Deep scars of life become The definite signs of decay. Hope filled lies of my creation I retain. The apathetic self, no control. I yield the same results. I find comfort in disillusion, so I say. Though I know I'm not alone, I fail to see it the same way. Mental anguish in place of bliss; fear instead of hope. Stagnant waters of life filled with the sick and decayed Hollow and aimless, I wait for the rain basking in the harsh sun. This is rebirth Downfall, a dearth Of all research Of the testament to flesh Blank Sky, the phase Where lies, their fate A shrine obtains The testament to flesh Old Scrolls foretold Of mass sacrifice beyond comprehension Guarded by a sentient haze Shrouded in desolate waste To the chasm of borrowed time and space Fevered dreams cast worlds unfound Vaster life, infinite bounds Fleeing dead stars in search of nourished grounds Oh, old scrolls foretold Of mass sacrifice beyond comprehension I wander to where the black sky meets the cold surf In hopes of seeking truth through worldly lies. Let flowing waters carry me beyond this dead world. For I know now what I seek. Bring formless death to this void. The whispers in the dark call. I can hear what they say, It lingers deep within my mind. Hymns of sorrow and pain fills my ears As I lay amongst the meek.
4.	Impotencia Organica 06:44	lyrics	buy track
Decay has taken this planet Embrace solemn disdain A world that has ceased to grow Will surely burn in flames Roam the earth only to scavenge Organic vessels with starving minds Tears of misery mark this awful time. The light will fade and so will I. So will I, fade away As I watch the suffering Pain reveals itself Dead trees fall to the ground And bury the bodies laying in the forest. Toxic winds will fill The lungs of all who still claim life. Darkness falls on this Earth No sun to rise or fall. Toxic dying oceans.
5.	Reflect On What Will Be Your Tomb 07:25	lyrics	buy track
Faded tomb erodes Passed on from this world Now marks the time For self inflicted decay Decay Decay of this world.
6.	Descending Stages of Insomnia 09:37	lyrics	buy track
Forced afterthought slow unmoving Dragging feet full of sorrow The price of life Grieving few left unswallowed Fevered dream kept unhallowed We seek reprise Frozen still the sands of time Unending fear that we’ve entwined A plea for help Consensual mental violence Horrific things done in silence Death in the presence of cowards Reviled form born of hate Seeking reason through decay A mind that’s torn Repeating scenes insane visions I cry out to plead they’re illusions With no reply The oldest light in the universe Aura of a Goddess Descending stages of insomnia Narrowing gaze, suspended in a moving dream Remove the stream of consciousness In ancient tongues we set in stone Dream dazed infatuation with my cerebral fate The lives I’ve lost to get here The price they paid was dear Frozen bodies grip at me Crashing down like waves Unseen lights of new worlds I wish to ascend above Foreign view like no other Cosmic flowing forms Behold bodies of gaseous life Slowly I am fading from the light Silently adrift into the beyond Callous visions when night veils the sky Sleep deprived and driven mad Slipping close to death I find myself Descending stages of insomnia
7.	Post Life Euphoria 07:46	lyrics	buy track
Surrounded by brilliant light Flowing streams of consciousness Bodies decayed away The greatest barrier has been breached and dissolved Peace in death; a post life euphoria The time has come. Let this feeling resonate With cosmic life and death My thoughts fade. No body, mind, or memories Departing from the light Entropy lies in wait for all Recycled life chemistry of organic death Atoms resume their place Still I draw from the unknown with unknown faith Uncertain afterlife. Hollowed corpse physical relic laid to rest Rotting sites of death Escaping Earth’s foul waste and burning fields Visions of remorse All Life is gone. Reflecting on what will be your tomb Overflowing mass graves Death has come One last draw of breath to take World failed faded decay Drifting dead corpses floating in shame Reaching for the grave Eternal slumber Falling through a haze Fading light The post life euphoria; Blissful ignorance
8.	In Times of Creation 08:15	lyrics	buy track
Anguished and outraged There is no clear path For far to long Ignorance has plagued our lives We must learn the language of the unheard We may die but will show no fear A day will come when hidden truths usurp their lies The voice of reason must be heard Without the threat of harm These lives must not be wasted In times of our most desperate situation Let not their hate test your strict, true devotion Finally we will put a drastic change in motion Lost in time the world keeps changing Faithful, Faithful Onwards and forwards Left in the beyond, I watched you grow so blind inside And I watched you grow so blind inside When the tides collide the decimation prevails The system at fault, Initiate reform To silence the oppression of our cause Will justify those who have lost their lives for no reason at all Let freedom reign In times of creation We fight for only what is right Onwards and forwards Let freedom reign In times of creation We fight for only what is right In flight, the red raven calls To beckon the calm that we must retain A shepherd of loss an ending so foul And we have felt the knowledge of hope We felt. And now the ending is now We’ve lost all we know And now we must find for ourselves The ending is now We’ve lost all we know Our own hope. A shepherd of loss an ending so foul And we have felt the knowledge of hope And now the ending is now We’ve lost all we know And now we must find for ourselves The ending is now We’ve lost all we know Our own hope.
