1. Hypocrisy
2. The Memory
3. Sinister Nation
4. Reflections of Old
1. Hypocrisy
Hypocrisy
lyrics by Drogoth
…And now I search for someone to reach
The questions deep inside of me
You can never tell what lies beneath
The shadowed mask of hypocrisy
Coming from deep inside
The feelings of betrayal once again
Seeking the darkest places to hide
Never emerging except to sin
Searching for forgiveness you still devour
Torturing the witness you abuse the power
You will never find
The answers behind
The never-ending torturing lie
Chameleon eyes
Designed to hide
The perpetual deception inside
And now it’s down to you and me
I’ve witnessed personified hypocrisy
And now it’s down to you and me
I’ve witnessed personified hypocrisy
Constant contradiction
Offers only fiction
And now I know it’s not only me
Wallowing in animosity
Passing judgment you proclaim
Your morality as if it’s a game
Where is the miracle?
You promised me
Every fucking day
Come my wanting child
Let me shelter you from the terrible storm
But when his eyes went wild
His actions gave his faltering words new form
Waiting for an explanation
I’m reflecting on my convalescent mistakes
Swallowed by our desperation
We drown in the ever consuming wake
Trying to comprehend
The web of lies you continue to spin
Following the patterns you apprehend
The deepest subconscious malevolent grin
Just as barren rivers flow
Into empty oceans
The uttering of busy words
Corrupted my emotions
And now it’s down to you and me
I’ve witnessed personified hypocrisy
Constant contradiction
Offers only fiction
And now I know it’s not only me
2. The Memory
The Memory (Of Unutterable Things)
lyrics by Drogoth
I’ve witnessed the fallen revived
Risen from ashes with undying passion
I’ve smelled the smoldering masses
The passing of specters reborn
By forces of action
Consciously entering every faction
Remnants of mortality
Clinging to darkest tragedies
The Memory
Of unutterable things
They gather in classes
They gather in unholy masses
Countless unhallowed fiends
Harvest the nameless blasphemy
Up from the ashes
Up now the dead join the dances
Echoing images
Of this detestable carrion thing
Unfolded from agony
Unbound from the binding ties of death
Unlocked from mortality
Unearthed from the unknown depths
Unearthed from the unknown depths
These ancient places
Amidst the hoary willows
Twisted reflections
Long forgotten
The Memory
Of Unutterable Things
Risen from Ashes
Amidst the twilight realms
Nightly excursions
Across ethereal seas
The Memory
Of Unutterable Things
3. Sinister Nation
Sinister Nation
lyrics by Drogoth
The sun is going down on this world
Reflecting the light back in golden sheets
Like reflections in a smashed mirror
And history itself repeats
Open eyes to behold this sinister nation
Open eyes to behold this mysterious world
The sands of time giving every indication
Of the dwindling flames of life as they grow cold
Remember the face of your father
Degenerating descendants
Sinking deeper in the poisonous water
His face a mask of anger and pain
Closed eyes can’t behold this sinister nation
Closed eyes can’t behold this imperious world
Dawning of the horror and the realization
Of the most demonous lies ever told
A holy cleansing turning dirty
Resurrecting the sinister days of old
Wander the paths of this nightmare, as the darkness veils the sky
All hope is fading into the coals
Blinded eyes lie beneath this sinister nation
Blinded eyes lie beneath this delirious world
Mass deception inciting his uneasy sensation
“Solid and eternal” cries the memory cold
The voice of the choir
Permeated with sorrow
Blissfully unaware
We lesser creatures
Scatter like rats
Sickened by the madness
But unable to look away
Suffer the journey where the only landmarks are pain
Along the paths of forbidden ground
Get a glimpse of the sun every now and then
From the depths in which we drown
Hidden from the madness and confusion that lies within
Praying for the gods to revive
Our utopian ideals again…
Again
4. Reflections of Old
Reflections of Old
lyrics by Drogoth
Before I lose the light
I keep the visions in sight
Wandering aimlessly
Through this shattered life
Unveiling the cover of truth
Exposing a grinning crescent of darkness
And now the vision fades
Blinded by the blackened light
In the absence of truth
Tossed into the depths of forever…..and never
Whispering through the drifts
Ancient bodies twist
Repentance, the gods curse my eyes
Wounded, glancing at the darkening sky
Suffering, the fate that visions foretold
Gazing through the mist at the reflections of old
The sounds of demons
Speaking in many voices
Like dull spreading agony
These sounds beating in steady pulses
In the ancient tongue
I hear the beckoning
Hailing from the darkest depths
Drifting to the promise of forever…..and never
Recalling how I faded away
Journey of the wandering days
Crawling towards the celestial fold
Searching through the darkness for reflections of old
Reflections glaring from the past
Poisoning the uncertain everlast
Reflections of past misapprehension
Painted across the tortured paths of today
Fear looming, blackened against the sky
Sickened by my deafening cries
Imprisoned, my terror unfolds
Searching through forever for reflections of old
Reflections glaring from the past
Poisoning the uncertain everlast
Reflections of old misapprehension
Painted across the paths of today
Questions left unanswered of how to survive
A wretched dream in which the world is swallowed alive
Realized, and I know there’s no future ahead
There’s shadows of reflections cast all over the dead
Sorrow fills my eyes
Imprisoned in my self deception
Insanity’s reprise
Rendered undone
