1. Still Life
Rise, rise, rise, rise...
"We shall crush you down to the point,
where there is no coming back,
things will happen to you from which you could
not recover
if you lived a thousand years,
a thousand years."
Still life
Imitating man
In another life,
in a stranger land,
Am I dreaming I am awake,
Is this hell or second sight
Are we born again like shadows
Outside of time
"Feel I'm walking outside, circled around me are these faceless figures watching me, as if they are waiting for something to happen... then it happens."
2. Xodus
Xodus
Exit rites, new altered states
In the arena of light
We welcome your fate
Let the dead carry the dead
Pyre for the flames
Embers of life in the wilderness remain
Xodus - I feel reborn
Xodus - reborn
Your memory and life
I watch it all go up in flames
Left to die again
Fear is mine
Morning comes as light
Burning out my eyes
This is the place we're suffering
As we come in from the night
Alive
"If you are human,
this is humanity"
Xodus - no place to run - meriahs impaled
Xodus - real blood - the rites of change
Xodus - now I feel reborn
Xodus - reborn
Rise, rise, rise, rise...
3. Shine
Shine
"We'll always be together. Forever"
"Sweet dreams."
Mirror, Mirror
This is the place
Where love is broken down
I'm barely free
As I want you now
Misery - seems so cold out
Misery - am I dead now
Shine - enlighten me - shine
Shine - awaken me - shine
Shine - for all your suffering - shine
Shine - she's mine
My face now pressed against the glass
The winter here it seems to last
Mirror, what they see
Misery in me
Shine - enlighten me - shine
Shine - awaken me - shine
Shine - for all your suffering - shine
Shine
Malachi
"Shine like a mirror reflecting, like the sun shines -- something that comes from above, when all that remains falls below."
Bow before Hecate
Man of fortune
Man of shame
She's gonna reach for
The hearts of all of you
And I know her eyes are true
In a fatal world,
They're afraid of what she brings
In an unknown world
There are fears of nothing
And I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
I will bring her down
Lord I'm barely human
I could raise her now
But I can't bear to lose her
I'm not afraid
I'm freezing, I'm waiting
All winter, her season
Asleep now I wait here
Awaken
I can't let go
The winter - the winter - the winter
She's here again
Is this the end
Here there's nothing left
Laid to rest now
Can't look away
I keep holding her
Winter without me seems so beautiful
Be not afraid of the ways she brings
No, I'm not afraid of the way she shines
"I'm dreaming all night. All night."
4. Penetration
Penetration
"Seeing things in my whole life, images exploding. You have been chosen."
"We are free."
Endemion - magical son
Nothing here is real
Lasts forever
Shining like gods
New body, new blood
The fire that I feel
Armageddon
Vision
Penetrating me
Penetrating you
Penetrating deep
Look out
"What's happening is real.
You can't stop them.
What do you think, we just go on forever?"
Ziarahs are all burning ahead
Illuminating ways
I've not dreamed before
Eternals are inviting me in
I see images of you burn forever
Can't contain
Penetrating deep - generating me
Penetrating you - let go
We must go back now
Make my entrance one way
And I can't look in
And I can't look back
We cannot stop, no
Black out
Listen
"Repeat: we have confirmed angel touchdown. The place is completely ablaze of fire. It's like hell down here. I think we're going straight for the fucking light."
Penetrating deep
Penetrating me
Penetrating you
Again
5. Melt (The Catching of the Butterfly)
Melt (The Catching of the Butterfly)
As she crawls from my hands
Her eyes I think they've found me
Matter
Blood
Her features cease to be traced
Oh forgive me
Now have your place with god
Innocence can be hell
Of the perfumed and penetrated flesh
She's melting, melting away
Of the passions that see and destroy us
This subtle fire, the secret flame
Torture by desire
Transformation from flesh to spirit
Melting, just melt away
There's a stillness
Between the light and me
Nothing but dreams and decay
And the angel
Whose wounds are my lamentation
Oh just melt away
Melting, Melting away...
6. Venus Decomposing
Venus Decomposing
"Forgive me as I have become the trail
of mutilation towards destruction, evil for all.
We the arbitrary souls
of our own temple
- need nobody as we reach out
and hold your breath of life."
Who has sent an angel for our requiem
Slaughter house religion
And the burning sun
Liars devotees of their deities
I see Venus decomposing
Here in front of me, close to me
"She's a liar."
Hell hallucinates
As you're fucked and bled
My dreams made flesh
Your words are dead
Paralyzed
Wide awake - reaching for the light
Dead to the world
Victim of today
Wide awake,
Victim you are mine
Still warm
Your eyes
Your words
Your faith
You burn so close to me
Fear is losing control
Fear is losing your life
Fear is taking your soul
Fear is you are mine
She feels
Still warm
As the womb grows colder - sufferer
Dreams I will bleed from your heart
Reasons for my world go rushing blind
Know my name
No invocation called me
As I reached her from inside
Love could have killed her just the same
Know my name - dead to the world
My words - dead to the world
You're dead
Venus was decomposing
Her hair blazed like sunlight
Flowering in a stream of gold
Your eyes
Your words
Your faith
It brings you close to me
Fear is losing control
Fear is losing your life
Fear is taking your soul
Fear is you are mine
7. Pazuzu (Black Rain)
Pazuzu (Black Rain)
"This generation shall not pass.
This is the last man."
This generation shall not pass
Till all these things take place
Uncrowned
Earthbound
Man made man - god
Black is the rain
Under blackened skies
Ressurection day an anti-christ
Black rain let it come now
Black rain we look up now
Black rain
On this eaten heart - our crucifier
We enter in a world
of fucking hypocrites and liars
Seasons have decayed now
And man made God
Sorrow for Satan and priests like dogs
No one here remembers
the bending of our minds
Pray for today
Tomorrow you die
"Look into the eyes of your creator."
"They stood him before a mirror.
He was emaciated and covered with wounds,
His back was bent, his hair was gone.
There was not a single depravation
He had not known."
Listen
The bending of minds
And the breaking of bodies and spirits
Uncrowned
Earthbound
Man made man
Destroy
Burial
Still falls the rain
Dark as the world of man
Black is our loss
Blind
"As the fourteen hundred and forty
nails upon the cross,
you are destroyed in the name of my savior."
Look into the eyes of your creator
Rain it eats the heart
Comes pouring from above
To break the mind
Under maddening skies
No one can escape now
No one alive
Nothing remains here
No coma arrives
No feeling
In screams of pain we're born
The fears of gods and wars
It brings the rain like blood it pours
This feeling
Still the rain it falls
Dark as the world of man
Black is our loss
Blacker than light
Nefilim
Stoop not down to
The dark infested world
Where lies a faithless depth
Fall and rise
And Hades wrapped in clouds
Inviting unwinding
A black ever rolling abyss
Unluminous formless and void
8. Zoon [Part 1 & 2] (Saturation)
Zoon [Part 1 & 2] (Saturation)
I've been waiting for you
You're lonely
I've been watching you control me
I'm here with you, you know
No need to hide
Lay your head in mine
Just close your eyes
Welcome
So you came
You're here with me again
Out of nowhere
You even know my name
But it will never, ever be the same
But I'm always with you
When you fall asleep
Sleep, sleep, sleep...
Show me
Show me what it is
What you're hiding from
I know you
Know who you are
By the fear in your heart
When you awaken your eyes open
I blind you like the sun
You only feel, only feel me
Tear you apart
"Tune your mind, reach inside, peel away. Come on, show me. Touch, Taste, Feel, Saturation."
Only false dreams awaken
Buried in your heart
Your only scream
You only fear you were dead from the start
Tune your mind
Reach inside
Peel away
Come on, show me
Touch, Taste, Feel
You're lost
You're lost for life
So lost
Your cunting life
The look of pain
No colour pain
The colour of your anger
Your lust for life
Enter my realm
Let it all escape
Reach inside
Escape
Unwind
My creator
Man maker
9. Zoon [Part 3] (Wake World)
Zoon [Part 3] (Wake World)
As we begin the end
Let us close the womb this time
My friend
We live together, forever
Every breath that you will take
I'll breathe
Perfect vision
What's your pleasure
And we're here again
Where I live
In a perfect hell
And you're here again
I can hardly see
I will live again
Until it hurts to be me
What's your pleasure
My name
My face
My spirit
Now leave me
Now go
This is hell this is
End of time
Lost completely
So this is life is this
I can hardly face to live
When it hurts to be me
In my world
My world
I will wait for you
Take control of you
You're lost, so lost
10. Coma
Coma
"Is there an end to the coma?
As we endure transformation.
As we enter the beginning"
No more pain, no more feeling
Let it endure forever
Those whose end cannot be
