1. Tih Drassenex
(Instrumental, but accompanies this text)
The final path in life is laid
Not of earth or cobblestone
But the shadow of tower dark
The stain in a wanderer's perfect sunset
Ascend the tower, ye destined one from
many felled by thou iron
Each heart ye opened, stopped
Another stone in the skybound spiral
Here at the top of tower dark
phantoms of yore cry loudest
Fatigued by aeons of sorrow
The halls of thy memories draped black
But there is a door, a crack of light
The sand-like hue looks so familiar
open, and recieve the will of the allgod
In one terrible instant
The door I open regardless of all
by the sight beyond, I wish to close
Did I never see the strings rising from me
to the whim of a cruel hobbyist?
Oh measureless agony!
At the end I reach the beginning
To gain and have lost all wisdom that shall be
To learn a most damning lesson again
for the first time, again and again
Into a familiar desert I am pushed
Here there is only deathly heat, and
my realization fades like water;
blurs with the heat on yon horizon
For I have forgotten all things but one:
To the tower dark, I must come
2. Succir Ob Laanfen Ex
Lost in cluttered words
Wandering an emotional wasteland
Lightly I do step upon my many graves
Jarring grief returns
with each epitaph I read
Limping and hungry
A crow stares blankly past
Yet when I turn away
My flesh its conscious gleam does flay
I know it is you
Basked in the shade of my tallest tomb
Engraving residual words
As you scan the weathered stone
You departed as if never arrived
3. Tessellation
Spectral moon please hold these tears I shed
Gaze your ancient madness into mine
Martyr evening sun please dry my sullen eyes
Rekindle the vision I seek to unleash
Laen Zeon
Laen Zeon
For the essence of reality
No belief do I hold
The spaces of nothing are sacred between myths
Standing in the wilderness
I care not for anything
May I dissolve into the ground
And become the leaves and moss
4. Chaorganic Machina
5. Echotasm
6. Exaatasm
7. Euphoric Cessation
