1. Submissive
Embraced in my dream, absurd as it may seem
You're slave under my illusion, the everdark of mine
Sodomize your shallow mind
Swirling images rise, constructed by my lies
In my shadows all your fear is true, it is all too real
Resurrect the toughts I steal
In my darkness, in which you're lost
Dreaming blindly, the line is crossed
Agitation, you're giving in
Submission, a life without sin
Crucificxion of your will, your conscious cruel demise
If you sin the beast inside arise, I sense it now, join me
Share afterlife's welfare
Exposed tou your fear, now you no longer care
Your soul and mind are possessed by me
Believe the lies I tell, when I say I wish you well
In my darkness, in which you're lost
Dreaming blindly, the line is crossed
Blessing, obsessive, oppressive, sumissive
Deep in belief, you worship me
Now forever protected from the fears inside
Your fate is secured, if you live in submission
Succumbed to my lies, your mind blank
Obsessed with heaven, christian faith
I am god
Guidance, guided for life, to you I'm out of reach
Too weak to think of yourself as god
You made me yours through fear, it's all but crystall-clear
Crucified is your integrity, hung dead upon the cross
Followed by your thoughts, and all your dreams
They stand in line to die, not once you race objections
Deep in belief, you worship me
Now forever protected from the fears inside
Your fate is secured, if you live in submission
2. The Third Eye Function
Advanced breed performing surgery in my brain
Diminishing the barriers of my mind
I'm granted the eye
Three-dimensional sight expanded
Substance turns out to be illusion
Abstract persceptions
From past, present and future they come
Three time-factors that take place now
Not ahead, not behind, but in different dimensions
Travelling through multiverse, not universe
Observing us
Insects of their complex science
Observing us
Chosen to possess the function of my third-eye
Now I know why we never knew
Our tunnel-visioned eyes
Cannot grasp reality beyond fine senses
Focused on technical advance
No abstract perceptions
Higher developed breed activities my third-eye function
My third-eye function
Released, it makes me see
I am above humanity, beyond its ignorance
My patterns of thought are incomplete
balance has been forgotten
Man needs guidance
The thrid-eye sets you free
Fragments of the surgery remembered
Excruciating memories
At the same time beholding so many different dimensions
Different aspects of time other ways of travelling
The multiverse
Alien intelligence observe us like insects
Higher developed breed activities my third-eye function
My third-eye function
Released, it makes me see
The third-eye function
3. Astral Eyes
In virutal worlds, I've placed my mind
In dreaming reality, these dimensions entwined
My mind is travelling, left my body blind
Computerised journey, I search to find
Carnally lifeless, my mind alert
Searching to find, the tool is my mind
Meeting resistance, I'm numb to the pain
Determined to travel, into this domain
My will is my strength, all resistance in vain
Through electric waves, injected to my brain
Worlds, artificial realities seen by my astral eyes
I behold a creation completely computerised
I successfully entered the core of this system
Feeling a strange fixation, I watch paralysed
Carnally lifeless, my mind fixed
Divided beings, in dormant states
Electric shockwaves, my body spasms
Deep hypnosis ending my voyaging in circuits
Worlds, artificial realities seen by my astral eyes
I behold a creation completely computerised
Overwhelming fantasies, filling my senses
Imprisoned in two dimensions, I remain paralysed
4. Self Alteration
Behold our enemy, the cut throuat machinery
In for the kill, we'll never know what hit us, no
Extinction in evolution, activity in vague memory
Behold the obscene - we're at one with the machines
A soulles existence, spiritual decadence
We begged for this damnation
But hoped to hell it would vanish when it came
Developing and breeding mechanical species
A spawn of enemies, enslaver of minds
Burning the remains of thoughts
This phoenix will not rise from its ashes
Sleeping awake, all questions die
We are replaced, never knowing what happened or why
Self alteration, be part of the humachinery
But time shall tell you are your own enemy
We begged for this damnation
But hoped to hell it would vanish when it came
Focused on advancing, obsessed by perfection
Yet the tides are turning, and the mirror of illusions cracks
5. Worlds Within Worlds (The Ethereal Withdrawal)
Used to explore the realms formed by dreams
The origin to all thoughts, and consciousness
I explored in deep slumber, vanished
My ability of those days was gone
Denied entrance to the place where dreams are real
The spirits of dream, I must have offended them
Distant regions of dream, into the ethereal
Increased sleep through the use of drugs
Exploring worlds within worlds, I withdraw
Live comes through mere illusion, a created reflection
When reality wreaks havoc, I withdraw
For many months I wondered of how to enter
To become part of my dreams again
Now I know, the strange pills that went down my throat
They were strong enough to take me there
Even if it lasted only for a moment
Untied from earth through this release
I shall leave with the arrival of dusk
Into the ethereal, where the sea meets the sky
Synthetic pills lift my wings, so that I again may enter
Distant regions fo dreams, into the ethereal
Increased sleep through the use of drugs
Exploring worlds within worlds, I withdraw
Life comes through mere illusion, a created reflection
When reality wrears havoc, I withdraw
6. The Expiring Utopia
Hammered and chiselled to fit
I carry the yoke of total self-denial
Slaves under doctrinal morals
Our minds are forged by the elite-technocracy
Wrapped in anonymity we're forced into patterns
Of flattered emotional response
We know all too well that our minds and bodies
Are but expendable software
Like binary series of numbers
We stand in queue to be erased
Increasing materialistic strife
Has redefined the meaning of life
And the inflation of organic substance is high
Through misty eyes, sometimes we see beyond
And sense the time when we still lived
But too tight are we chained to escape
The path to mental freedom is forever lost
Cold and unfeeling we walk
On desolate streets that speak of times forgotten
REduced to expendable assets
We no longer question the reason
Like binary series of numbers
We stand in queue to be erased
Through misty eyes, sometimes we see beyond
And sense the time when we still lived
But too tight are we chained to escape
The path to mental freedom is forever lost
7. Theoretical Conviction
The instinctive hope faded, all causes lost
Repeated fatalities erased all sense of will
Nothing pleased me, I longed for loneliness
Alone with my visionary dreams of darkness
Surrounded by failure, my mind bleeds with bitterness
I'm let down by life, how can I go on
All my thoughts gathered, I concentrate on dying
Impure speculations rise within to dominate
These thoughts are suicidal breeding on deep depression
I'm ruled by this wicked urge to perish, end this living lie
Convinced I want to die, I put my theory in practice
Convinced, I put my theory in practice
Crossing the border between present and non-existent
Plunging into an eerie abstract dimension
Though I'm carnally gone, depression remains
Let down by life and deceived by death
I can't free my soul from the failures
Out of reach from myself, cannot touch, no longer feel
Arguments for the cosmic creation
Pathetic, end this living lie
Convinced I want to die, I put my theory in practice
Convinced, I put my theory in practice
8. Void of Origin
9. Inexplicable Nature
As we are overwhelmed by the never ending void
Little do we comprehend our being
Drifting towards infinity
To die is but part of the truth to our existence
Like cosmic matter, implacably drawn towards the black hole
All flesh is subject to the unrelenting power of death
Deep, embedded in flesh lie emotions of an abstract kind
Thoughts, to earthly thinkers, of an inexplicable nature
Confront death, a sin so innocent
Simply the end of your carnal life
My last day, I feel it closing in, the nature of departure
Life's perishment, forced acceptance
To join the cosmic tides forever
Inexplicable, nature beyond this sphere
Off to seek the answer to our nature, to what's beyond
Eyes closed, set adrift among the orbs
To enter what's beyond our sphere
At last the day of departure
I'm sworn to haunt the calling skies
The never-ending void now opened
All is done, I embrace death here and now
Down the path of an uncertain future
Shrouded in mist are the secrets of beyond
