1. Intro
2. Longing For Clarity
Longing for clarity
Upon humility my journey dwells
Among sycophants and egotists
Blended as blood on skin paled
Deprive the flesh of its urge for affection
Deprive the senses, sensual suffocation
Slip into the void of inflicted darkness
Purification edict, seek to harness
Cleansing of the being
Leads to the pathways of desire
Established goals to be achieved
Achieved goals cast aside
This cycle is endless
In oneself it resides
The essence resonates
Awaiting to devour
Penetrating the sanctum of spirit
Exploring the will to create
Invigorated, at one with oneself
Feel the wrath as the self penetrates
3. Acceptance In Silence
Lost in thought
I contemplate
Seek the pleasures of silence
The comfort of its embrace
The warmth of her embrace
Searched the depths of religon
Followed their false gods
The illusion of acceptance
Realize and thrive
Standing before you
A banished man
I've fought hard for my beliefs
Yet alone still I stand
The thing most sought
Will come at my death
I now know that I
Must take my last breath
I now know I
Must take my last breath
Acceptence in silence
That which I seek
The day will come
And I accept my fate
As I lie her and wait
Accepting the silence
That will come to me
That will be coming
The thing most sought
Will come at my death
I now know that I
Must take my last breath
Breath, breath
I must take my last breath
Acceptence in silence
That which I seek
The day will come
And I accept my fate
4. No Vision Of Prophecy
The prophets have all deceived us
Fallen victim to their lies
The future you can't predict
Imagination sold as fact
Hallucinations aren't visions
I see through the disguise
No vision of prophecy
The future has not been set
Sever ancestral strings
Away from lies once led
Blinded
Eyes Bleed
Led through the valley of deceit
Upon the steeds of deception
Worn the cloak of submission
Followed my own path
Slain the horse I ride
Applied the garments of redemeption
Lies
Unveiled
Blood
Washed away
Wield
My destiny
Future
Mine to slay
5. Scourge Of Thy Enemy
Scorched earth
My home the battlefield
Blood has been shed
Upon the native soil
Search for survivors
A daunting task
Freedom the victim
Mounting loss
Call to arms we seek revenge upon the foreign lands
Division forgotten, united we stand
Seeking allies council, seeking to justify
Pondering the course of action, decision solidified
The innocent slain
Actions of the weak
Brothers bled shed
Retribution we seek
Vengeance sought, calm brought back to these shores
Masses scream for war, prepare for the eagle's scourge
Enemy's blood their lives to pay
Sacrifice, whatever the cost
Extinction
6. Distant Memories
Years turn to days of past
The hourglass is running fast
Life's no more than memories
Past the time away, Past the time away
So I sit here waiting
For the end to come
No one knows the answers
Nothing left to dream of
Drowned by the night
Scream to the wind
But none hear my call
Words lost to the breeze
Upon the ground they fall
Days are short
The nights are long
Sometimes the dark
Burns more than the sun
The memories are distant
The memories are black
Sitting by a window
Piercing into the night
Drained of all that I bleed
Cast this from my sight
The earth will still be spinning
The day that I fall
See what the years have done
Shattered by it all
So I sit here waiting
For the end to come
No one knows the answers
Nothing left to dream of
7. Tempting Angelic Pride
Tempting the angels
Stricken with pride
Doubts of creation
Destroyer of lies
Visions of conformity stagnant and feed
The burnt feathered wings of heavenly bodies bleed
Angels deflowered by human kind
Tattered and torn ripped apart to see through my minds third eye
Not convinced of existence
The false illusions of life
Taught of man's creation
Yet suspicions have arised
Conditioned to believe
Upon mere faith I can't rely
Look within myself
So that I may find god
The followers seem content
With their holy sedated lives
The shroud of repression
Covers their bleeding eyes
Light of the saviour
Blinds and supresses sight
Extinguish the flame
For in the dark I see more clear
Tempting the angels
I now can see
Tempting the angels
Watching them bleed
8. Resurgence
Frozen lands of endless decay
Resurgence of will hard to obtain
Reign of torment
Existing to bleed
Heaven no solution
Creation dispised
Dispised
Relentless submersion I tire of victim
Must gather my strength and slaughter my captor
Slay the abide
Bloodshed Torture
Bloodshed Torture
Resurgence The cure
Dethrone the aggressor
Havoc ridden ascension
Resurgence of the will
Strong shall emerge
Emerge
Emerge
9. Falling Through Decades
Falling through decades
Days blend as one
Can't distinguish day from night
Years burn the skin
Seared by winds of the sun
Consuming the presence of life
What once was distant
Now seems within sight
Filled with an endless void
All that I have built
Soon to collapse
In an instant destroyed
What has become of my life?
What is the meaning?
Minor distractions
Help coat the thought of an end
Cyphon content out of living
Even when enlightend
The meaningless posessed by my being
Useless to ponder, but forget I cannot
Paths covered by debris of deception
Struggle, the path will unveil
What has become of my life
What is the meaning
Deciphering the soul
I do not understand
10. Repetition Breeds Insanity
Self inflicted seclusion result of vomitive life
Infinite occurrences bold minions for my confusion
Accusations fly with horrific consequences
Seclusion spawns repulsion
Insanity from repitition
Stories retold creation regurgitated
Rehashing the old imagination contaminated
Thoughts gauged and bound
Become part of the trend
Conscious never found
Never to offend
Repitition breeds insanity the weakest form of conformity
Defy the path that has been set take the path and redirect
Stagnant persuasion
Patterns recur
Release creation
Desire erodes
Given the choice abroad or secluse
Given the time, time not to lose
Repeated thoughts, repitition controls
Time to break free shatter the mold
Repitition distorting my reality
Surrounding me within my dreams
I control my own destiny
Repitition breeds insanity
Erodes
