1. Dead In The Wake
Scarred by the generations of contamination. Drained of life, devoied of tranquility. Mother earth crumbles with the weight of its children. Hope that has been hollowed from these veins. Tonight the remains cry out signs of degradation, as the maggots infest within our ears. Our actions of today create the teardrops of tomorrow. Again and again, civilization wraps her hands around the neck of nature with a ceaseless grasr we choke. Feeding off of false words spoon fed. Breathe in the reign of ignorance. Witnessing the silence of voices - A divine disregard for improvement. The pursuit of survival will keep us alive.
2. The Asphyxiation Process
A haze of absence hovers over your head. I cannot see past this blackened hole inside your chest. Place this noose around your neck. There is nothing left but two steps to eternity. Nothing more can fulfill your desire, a fuel that will burn no longer. Gather the blood that has been shed. Sip the taste of despair. Can't you see what you've become? Spit this precious disease from your mouth. Fall to your knees, and pray for yourself. I have forgotten your death and maybe now, there can be silence. Your kiss is as cold as death. I'll hold your severed head in my hands. Leave this plague to devour it's hosts. Close your eyes, for this sadness shall forever reign upon our hearts. I gaze into the dying light of my forgotten dreams to search for my true happiness.
3. A Virgin Burial
Clouds hasten in the frozen sky, as this hour becomes as pale as the last. Watching the sun shrink to oblivion, I try to remember the last time that I felt alive. The vast fields of life have become empty with passion and empty of our eyes. Where does this road lead again? Perhaps I was hoping to find something that didn't exist. The torturous rain descends one last time. Be silent. Be still. Here is where the light becomes thin, and the obscurity revealed. Underneath the scars holds nothing more than what brought me here; to rest with this silence. And here i lay. Cast me into this blaze. leave me to burn. All this time, thinking i knew why, but that has been forsaken. Fearing that i am lost and falling into a trap again, how was I made to believe? An existent beauty vieled. Manking has been formed into a struggle for power - The capability to devestate and to manipulate our eyes into untruth. The chaos shall be instilled into the footsteps of man, as we plunge into the depths of immortality. Fighting to extinguish. Killing to live on.
4. There is No Tomorrow
5. The Endemic
Drifting silently towards the end of the world, I'm falling fast from the caress of humanity. We've let this slip away. To reverse the past is all i want, for wiping my tears will only stain my blood. Please bleed forever. I will watch. Burn everything and follow the flames. Under the pale night sky i wander in search for you. Lost forever past all belief. I am left again, to bear this alone. You said this would never end. But now you're gone, and i'm right here. Holding dead roses from the past. You take me to unconscious darkness. Hide your face and be my poison. As i bury this knife into my body. Remove your skin, the infection now begins.
6. Awaiting Eschiel
As remorse awakes, I reach these open arms out towards fulfillment, but again return with emptiness in this celestial cessation of time. Too soon this door was shut so tight. Bowing down to an untrue fate means a lesser exisence. Arise the frustration from my thickened throat, where confusion etches its mark straight into my chest. I can't fall again until you help me up. For far too long, I have searched for the beauty that you create. Lift this blanket of desperation from my heart to reveal my lost soul. On my bed of stone, I await your return.
7. A Suspension To Sleep
8. Beloved
Once upon a midnight sky, the darkness calls my name. From this day forth the calling will prevail eternal. Let this be the last time that you come for me, as we become one. I can't envision the temptation of turning back. There is so much more to give now than there once was, yet it seems as if time grows ever so slowly. The severance is to me as fire is to the damned. What i desire most has been buried awau with the time that has come and gone. The repitition has become all i feel. There is no comfort in desolation, but only in the sweet scent of life. No solace is found in the arms of the deceitful. Now i must thirst for what brings life to us all. Consuming blackness, i am the unseen. Knowing that this is what kiss, i will destroy. A breath that will endure, a kiss that shall be your last. Hunting in search of satisfying a taste for my life - to save you the pain. Forcing my presence to be but a mere shadow cast upon your sweet cheek. Become one with me. Follor me and together we can exist in the shadow of gloom. Conceal ourselved from the light and rest until we must breathe again when the nighttime calls. To reconcile the thoughts for the beloved, we must give in to the taste. To the taste. We must give in. To the taste. For we are alone to torment the fucking souls of the mortal flesh, and bound by the everlasting taste.
