into grey
05:21
|

With the wool over our eyes
we all have chosen to become the blind,
we've turned our day to night.
grey goes into grey
Sea and sky glow brilliant, red
all the living crying out to join the dead
take till there's nothing left
as grey goes into grey
Learn from the father,
suffer the son.
I was the chosen of legions,
now I'm no one
All I loved, I loved alone
all my life, I search for home
All we see, we don't speak
We wait here endlessly.
We are alone

Take my life into your hands
push it deep into my lungs
bleeding body, bending limbs
twist my bones and cut my tongue
show me the way
you've brought me here in search of gods
there is no one
there's nothing
all of our lives we're taught to fear
their hungry gods
they're lying
O' sorceress, what is there now?
there's only lies and dying.
show me the way

mountain temple

The gods have left this place
they've left us through the mountains halo
abandoned us
left us to face whatever comes of their betrayal.
there is nothing for you here,
there will never be
there will never be a thing.
born of century old ghosts
we will disappear
without ever being seen
we wait for the skies to fall
we wait for the seas to boil
we watch as mothers
make their children dig their graves on arid soil

Creatures of the forest
serpents of the deep
i summon you
awaken life
protect me
O' there are others.
pulling down the mountains
poisoning the sea.
they're melting frozen haven
they're turning field to desert
they are taking life from me
the creature, the pariah
one with no venom's sting
they will not make their peace with me
mankind, the empty vessels
destroying just to be
with eyes but choosing not to see
tooth and claw
blood and bone
storm and fire
drought and cold
pull down mountains
poison the sea
melt frozen land
destroy just to be

Destroyer of worlds,
parasites I feed,
can you feel the end of days?
can you see into the void beyond us?
see to our ruthless end?
when we'll scorch the earth as we writhe,
crying "we have failed you!"
to when the night descends
and the dust will clear as we die,
knowing we have failed you.
I made mistakes when I created you,
and now I burn you down.
I must destroy the creature I've awakened
violent child of doom
you will never know your purpose
child of doom.
in the night, we dug the graves
we lie down there, and now we wait.
for the earth to take us,
swallow us alive.
we will find our home in hell
and the earth will take us.

hollow city
06:31
|
|||
We're black holes.
every one of us.
always absorbing
always collecting
pulling in, still empty.
we were as gods,
we were nothing
i am destruction
i am gluttony
still, our movements keep your eyes on us
nothing, not even the movement shows, we're only shadows.
to the deaf and blind
we were ghosts
to the dead and tired
we bled you dry
in all the earth and sky
we were nothing more than parasites.

light and less
05:59

Wake
i'm awake
don't let the darkness feed on you
don't let it find your soul
we are the only light
we are the only ones
who can awaken hell,
awaken home.
i have been antiquated,
if im to die, then i choose to by hands
hell will be elevated
again to rise, taking hold of holy lands
we are the only light
we are the only life.
