Sarcophony

Fog framed garden, seeds ungrowing
Long claimed land owned by unknowing
fading tributes to countless moments of countless
instants of existence
reflect the light off lifeless moon
from the mirror of midnight dew
Marble angels serve to mock the dead below with the
stone tears they drop
Monuments to irrelevance, built for conceit and
molded in greed
Mark subterraneal decomposition of dying cells
which can't know their fate
Night speaks to itself, shadows share black secrets
Nocturna shall reign in whispers until dawns act of treason
Oh post mortem narcissism, oh, no afterlife, no pride
The misguided symbol of disturbed earth, the naivety that
the dead have worth, fading dying tributes wilt on the
names of fresh turned dirt and ancient graves, guilt for the
blood in our veins
Why not accept that reality ends with your life?
A carved likeness still makes us nothing more than our own
measurement of time
The lapse of your plot
To be defined by where..You rot
Oh, Sarcophony unending echo-less screams
Oh, Sarcophony, a tribute to the void
Percussion of the leaves, Oh, Sarcophony
Decomposition, Lamentation,Orchestration Apparitions
Fog framed garden seeds ungrowing long claimed land
owned by unknowing fading tributes to countless instants
Release their sorrow upon the night's wind
Unseen forces grant awareness
to the essence of past tense this
Mass awakening makes hours of seconds
The world erupts back in to silence
Monuments to irrelevance, built for conceit and molded in
greed
Mark subterraneal decomposition of dying cells
which now know their fate
Oh post mortem narcissism, oh, no afterlife, no pride
The misguided symbol of disturbed earth
the naivety that the dead have worth
fading dying tributes wilt on the names
of fresh turned dirt and ancient graves,
guilt for the blood in our veins
Why not accept that reality ends with your life?
A carved likeness still makes us nothing more than
our own measurement of time
The lapse of your plot
To be defined by where..
You... Rot!
Clinging to your social status with the grip of rigor mortis
Physical eulogy
Oh, Sarcophony, unending echo-less screams,
Sarcophony, a tribute to the void
Chorus for the trees, Sarcophony!
Clinging to your social status with the grip of rigor mortis
Have your second final say
Oh, Sarcophony, unending echoless screams,
Sarcophony, a tribute to the void
Chorus for the trees, Sarcophony

Eye of the Swarm
06:07
|

Content to be mindless spineless pawns
Peace at what cost? Fires of honor lost
Caught in the jaws of this sudden strange holocaust
Eye of the swarm descends upon a helpless planet
All the life forms shall be reminded of terror
Eye of the swarm staring down on utopia
Taking the form of our fatal game ender
Exoskeletal
Armageddon
The erosion
Of ascendancy
Exoskeletal
Armageddon
The Extinction
Of humanity
Hive mind invasion cliche
Scattered and afraid we pray
While waves of invertebrae
Infest the shelter that we've made
Synchronized movements of murder
Numbers unyielding envelop
The sea, the skies, the cities we genuflect
While we were on our knees we exposed our necks
To the....
Eye of the swarm descends upon a peaceful planet
All its life forms will be reminded of terror
Eye of the swarm staring down on utopia
Taking the form of our fatal game ender
To find the needle and cease the attack
We find a way to simply burn down the stack
We seek redemption from eras of death
Annihilation of a genocide pest

Outrun by Wolves
06:54
|
|||
Outpacing your breath as it hangs behind you
Crystalline shards of desperation
Trees void of leaves bestow upon thee
The thick crawling river of nocturnal mist
Sweat flows with tears as they are freezing
Molding the mask of a man soon to pass
Trailing in blackness; approaching death
Instinctual perfection worships the hunt!
Outrun by Wolves, Fed to the forest
Outrun by wolves, Your flesh shall feed the pack
as you lie to yourself about the potential for escape
with feral precision they fall upon you as you fall upon their fangs
In the realm of the hunter wits alone just prolong the grave
They howl their thanks to the one who brings them their prey
Oh, you came to me, Seeking packaged glory
I promised you an honorable kill
Provider of which I leave to nature's will
You seek merit in a cage With dignity defined by a wage
Employing an ambassador To bring you a corpse unjustly earned
I am a child to this wood An empath within a noble brotherhood
As your heart beat stops In the full moon rays
You fulfill a pact Forgot by the human race
As the brush runs red In your ivy grave
Innamorato della Luna My pack is sustained
You can stand or Run from the place where I left you
Alone with a knife and your will to survive
Conditioned to feeding after my absence
They make themselves known with luminous eyes
Waiting for me to offer their next meal
Lets put to the test your value of life
Receiving end of a partisan crusade
Feel your flesh crawl as its stripped from the bone
The feeling that warps those in this world
That through our actions we can become eternal
A lust for legacy has caused us to lose sight
Of whats a triumph and what is fallacy
The growing concept that life is dog eat dog
Will force the foolish to idolize the corrupt
Dwelling with their bias to feel at home
I remain in the mist With the Wolves

Pathetic violent need for approval
Delusions of grandeur and distinction
If you base a claim on hatred
If you flaunt your ill gotten gains
If you boast rights are one sided
If you bow to the parasitic minded, oh
You seek to take what can't be owned
Go fuck yourself and die
If you want to get fucked so bad
Go fuck yourself and die
Go fuck yourself and die!
Callous opportunist who's conniving
Gaining strength through ego
Frothing at the mouth for your next meal
Feeding on the odious
Encroaching on the space of the enlightened
With your invasive language
Grasping at the skirt of lady justice
Blaming her promiscuousness
Accumulation of chagrined self esteem
Has created something sinister
Taking from the pure giving to thine self
Avoiding true confrontation
The sin of change undone
A time when false wars are won
by propaganda!
You're the Judas to true victims
Blame has become the kiss
which you used to damn us
Painting yourself as the martyr
You're the starter of a fucking exodus
Chaining women
Hypnotizing kids
Building structures
On the backs of weak broken men

Moss laden ground worships at the feet of a monolithic tapestry
woven in sorrow
The approaching sound of undeserving eyes is muffled underfoot
by dwindling lives
Invasive speculation looks through the scenery
Promise of progress warps all greenery
A vines spiraled grace wilts in this reality
Boots mold the land to its concrete finality
Gaia lets her voice break in surreal dismay
As we drain her essence she shatters our tranquility
Fruits bear the culprits and proclaim them guilty
Ancient and knowing but hidden in paradise
The accuser of her abusers, The punishment and the trial
The last realm of serenity , Has forsaken it's own still
Branches dance without the wind
Blame is laid without knowledge of sin
Mournful faces leak their cries
Black pits of pitch leak a Charade of eyes
Hope for us is obsolete
We lost mother's scent now we're banned from the teat
Gag on rancid apologies, We're the guilty
Collectively we turn away, Assembly line blind eyes
We turn from earth towards the skies
And fill them with ashes, Darkness consumes our minds
In it's shadow we can hide, Quickly spreads this tormented choir
We turn to our great silencer; Fire!
Let these bridges burn, We've reaped what we've earned!
The black cloud ascending, The score of these spores crescendoing
The gavel of judgement will silence us with its thunder
We've heard this all before But not from the source
We can dam this river, but she can change its course!
Heard this all before, but not from the source.
We can damn this river, but she can change its course.
We created our demise with our own shame
We're our pyre and the flame.
Fallen faces decay in to the seeds of sunken skulls
Saplings sprout through sockets
The world succumbs to its new host
Choking off society, Visages of mockery
Outposts of humanity, Overgrown!
The weapons of lush dystopia
A whet stone and a blade
Our last stand against a hydra of thorns; our scorned
creator wielding hate
Roaring through the masses we choke on the fumes
She offered us efficient deaths we loudly refuse
Sawing all at arms length we are overcome
We're fueled by misplaced vengeance, they're fueled by
the sun!
Claustrophobic reclamation
Smothered by nature
Our grip grows colder
Smothered by nature
The black cloud ascending the score of these spores
crescendoing
The gavel of judgement will silence us with its thunder!
The earth has her legends and she has her myths
But above all else
She has secrets, Woe
All shall fall

The Thin Line
06:30
|
|||
Here we go!
Whispers echo softly in the hallways of my mind
The only words Ive ever heard to fill me with desire
Oh if I could manifest these thoughts as something I can touch
Sadomasochistic tendencies intertwine with lust!
To create poetry, and awake lost feelings
put a face to instincts, oh the twisted things we do for love
Stains on leather gloves, drowning of a dove, torment is my drug
I Cross the thin line between steel and bone
to look in to your eyes when I am alone
Forced to contort, heels touching throat
Finding release to the rhythm of your death throes
Pathetic and powerless I welcome you to the abyss no anesthetic
Dissection the victims of my affection show their scars
Definition of depraved I sacrifice humanity in the name of desolation
the answer to my salvation lies in your flesh
Your flesh crawls as faint footsteps follow you in the night
A tortured sirens song a heart rate lullaby
as you gag on my blade to fill the void of my soul
two lives become one, I become whole
Transcendence beyond the living
Possession, consummation, The fruits of covetousness
Oh a fruit so sweet as blood, Stains on leather gloves
drowning of a dove, torment is my drug
I Cross the thin line between steel and bone
to look in to your eyes when I am alone
Forced to contort, heels touching throat
Finding release to the rhythm of your death
Pathetic and powerless I welcome you to the abyss no anesthetic
dissection the victims of my affection show their scars
Definition of depraved I sacrifice humanity in the name of desolation
the answer to my salvation lies in your flesh
Necromantic, Neuronslaught
Frayed semantic, star-cross'd rot
Pathetic and powerless I welcome you to the abyss
no anesthetic dissection victims of my affection show their scars
Definition of depraved I sacrifice humanity in the name of desolation the answer to my salvation
lies in your flesh, Oh!
Necromantic neuronslaught, Frayed semantics star-crossed rot

Cells
07:30

We crawl along the sands of time
our thoughts are thirst our minds unwind
The mirage of a purpose in life has made us age
like formaldehyde not wine
The elemental ward
open for business accepting clients
the only cost is complete compliance
to the unwritten to the unsaid
to whatever biased beliefs will suit your fears best
Cage of morality
and to hide our mental fragility
we confine our screams to cells and dreams
and despite our incessant insanity
we confine our thoughts to the cage of morality
and to hide our mental fragility
we confine our screams to cells and dreams
Cells, Dreams and everything in between
questioning the stitching in reality's perfect seams
Our ambition reminiscent of the distant stars
long dead illusions which we view from afar
impartial as particles webbed across the whole
How can we care?
Can you find the drop of blood in the lake?
Does the shore exist for a grain of sand's sake?
An onyx desert sprawls across
The arid plains of hope long lost
the fossil of an hourglass
that toppled brought a wake of guile
our thoughts are thirst our minds unwind
The mirage of a purpose in life has made us age
like formaldehyde not wine
The elemental ward
open for business accepting clients
the only cost is complete compliance
to the unwritten to the unsaid
to whatever biased beliefs will suit your fears best
Cage of morality
to hide our mental fragility
we confine our screams to cells and dreams
and despite our incessant insanity
we confine our thoughts to the cage of morality
and to hide our mental fragility
we confine our screams to cells and dreams
Cells, Dreams and everything
in between
questioning the stitching in reality's perfect seams
Our ambition reminiscent of the distant stars
long dead illusions which we view from afar
Self preservation means nothing anymore
we fear the mirror we fear the truth
we don't fear death we don't fear war
Impartial as particles webbed across the whole
phasing through each other in a blurred kaleidoscope
of Cells and Dreams!

Torrn Apart by Machinery
07:44
|
|||
Caught in the cogs of their system
Feeding my life to algorithms
Calculating my output
To put in to figures numerical value of my worth
The true work of the motions made from programs
Moves the whole world, I find myself paid to watch them
Replacing a base need for humanity
A surgeon for the new world they are taking
Wires and veins to me are the same
A screwdriver scalpel a microchip brain
My followers say their prayers with their product
My followers raise their praise with hydraulics
Time divides my life from reason
The new breed of life form is risen
The factory where I found my rebirth
The new form of life form has risen, oh!
I feed myself to the machine in an act of accidental apathy
I brace for the instant I'm gone
But the pain starts and lasts far too long
Adding to the misery the behemoth overheats
Cauterized forbade to die I feel all of it
I plead with the gears for the release of unconsciousness
Knotting all my tendons as my essences
are rendered from the tangible
Dripping my marrow heralded by the unfeeling butcher
Torrn Apart by Machinery, It takes all but my life
Flesh sears as it liquefies, Torrn Apart by Machinery
Singeing eyes yet I see what this monstrosity made me
Baking me in what should be my life's blood
Insanity out of reach I just scream
ask this machine to release me from my misery
Contusion, Metal orgy, Distorts me, No end
Pressure, Prolapse, Fingerless hands, Bone fragments
Kept alive by machines I am consumed by pain
Kept alive by machines I am consumed by hate
Part of the scenery My pride has been raped
An accessory to the clinical scenery
A relic kept alive by Machinery

Plague of Empires
05:54
|
|||
Blackened blur of eternity leaving our motions still
The spark of progress to spare lives began at the first
kill
A relay on two treadmills kills time as it erodes
Development through destruction
Smother fire with hot coals
How have we learned?
If not by our mistakes?
What have we earned?
Faster ways to decay
Manufactured instinct of mass preservation
cowers to the power of survival
Hope has bred naught but resentment
Pain has shaped our world
The Plague of Empires
Mirrors what it inspires
Exponential fires
The Plague of Empires
So we contend with our fears
By realizing more nightmares
Etched in the scars of the past
The scripture of our extinction
With each new show of force
Drastic acts become the standard
How can we hope to proceed
When each step is taken backwards
Woe
Woe
Woe
