Forbidden Sorrow

Lyrics: DG
The spirit will ever remain unsilent
on a dispassionate plane.
Disallowing the end of a journey
between this world and the next.
Continue this trance to the length of all dreams.
Your body turns cold in this twilight, succumb to another wound.
We must dwell in lost days of spite.
True darkness brought by loss.
Ironically, by a light that consumes us at the end.
I will await your aurora in the dawn.
Release me from a world of sorrow.
I pray for death, no hope
Only the future and the ethereal waters
In which you and I will once again roam.

Lyrics: MP, Dorthia Cottrell
Your voice echoes across the night, dragging me from slumber time and time again.
In these dim hours I surrender myself to the black tides of despondency.
When blood is borne, back to the sea
I'll calm the waves, so you can sleep
Where are you now, my oldest friend?
Wait for me there, I'll be home again
Motherless child
I listen to the wind
I listen to the night
Always searching
Always yearning
Keep the lantern lit for me
When this path comes to it's winding end
And I can see the lantern's glow
Cutting through the final gloom
We will see each other again
We will see each other again
Sarò a casa, sarò a casa

Lyrics: DG
Something’s glaring through our eyes from a place beyond,
where pernicious energy is confined.
It uses our mind as it's device
and we inherit all of the evil it can fathom.
It can't resist the allure of our frailty
and the disgusting sphere that orbits a dying inferno.
It uses our mind as it's device
and we inherit all of the evil it can fathom.
Look into the stars. Can you see it's black plume?
Surveying the heavens with it's fumes.
It fiends for immeasurable sobriety.
It's only eased by the prey on which it feeds.

The Killer In Us All

Lyrics: MP
I call out into the barbarous night with blade drawn firm
and a heart tempered in the flames of malice.
I roam this land as a vagabond, stained by cruelty
and driven by a callous penchant for death.
Abandon all humanity and I will teach you that there is a killer in us all
I listen for the voices carried in on the foul night breeze.
Abandon all humanity and I will teach you that there is a killer in us all

Splintering Ouroboros

MP
"Awake! Rise from your putrid squalor, you detestable bastard!
Open your piteous eyes and breath deep the foul stench of suffering!"
Oh, how night's reprieve ends suddenly with a boot to the chest.
"Can you see the landscape beyond? Once a jewel of nature's glory! And now?
The most revolting latrine ever conceived, overflowing with filth!"
Oh, yes I can see how the circle must splinter. How the masters must fall. How you will fall.

The Opal Chamber

Lyrics: MP
We have no reverence for the confines of time
We have no reverence for the confines of reality
We praise only confusion, the stark chaos of our altered existence.
Unhinge the jaws that mute your inner beast
and bestow this warped communion upon your tongue.
Let your mind descend into an untouched state
Let savage discord be your unwavering guide.
Let us lead you to a primal awakening.
Let us lead you to our perverse stronghold.
Your inner beast is awakening...
Your inner beast is awakening, in the opal chamber.

Lyrics: MP
All of man's potions have failed to deaden
the agony of a spine failing with every step.
A failure to cope has lead me down a path of
bleak meditation paved with the throes of anguish
Please forgive me for what I'm about to end...
My spine will be my noose
Spiraling
in and out
of consciousness
The world is disappearing into a numbing fog
and I have given in
Please forgive me for what I'm about to end...
My spine will be my fucking noose.
And on that glorious day when my decision has been made
I'll find my peace, free from the clutches of pain.
I'll end my life!
I'll end my life!
I'll end my life!
MY SPINE WILL BE MY NOOSE

Lyrics: DG
Down through caverns
To the sight of lakes
and rivers of blood
Condemned thoughts
Like a sad eclipse
Scowling on the soul
Loss persuades the ease of woe
Never blinded by the sun again
beneath, trembling in filth.
Memories of green earth
Shared with red sullen eyes.
This viral, dark dwelling
Is the septic of a world's ignorance
spawned by Gods who never returned.
Down through caverns
to the sight of lakes
and rivers of blood.
Loss persuades the ease of woe.
