1. Rain Wound
2. The Siege
3. Gutspawn
4. Infinity Coda
1. Rain Wound
Here my bones bleach
before the blazing light of purity
chained to the mountain top
the waste of heaven falls upon me
my wrists are a grisly red
from the bonds of justice
now I understand
why men look to the ceaseless sky
I toyed with the mortal gift of thought
I pondered through the ruins of mystery
I scoffed at the altar of solace
In the ruins I dreamt nothing
I raised my lance to the sky
curing those dust covered statues
then a raindrop stuck brow
and the oceans of the sky fell
The mountains sank into the sea
the crumbling earth had betrayed me
fleeing to nowhere sanctuary barred
the rainwound begins to bleed
Grim haunts of the heavens and hells
emerged from the cracks in the sky and the rocks
a mob of fiends encircled me
through undivine ascension I was taken to the gods
I was made to kneel
before the gods
their stares peeled flesh and bone
bludgeoning my soul
for insolence in denial
I was to make penance
and my legacy was to grasp my kind
On the mountaintop I was put
An iron chain bore into the wound
linking my mind with the heavens above
forever thought was taken from us
2. The Siege
Look over the battlements
at the burning countryside
there the army of wicked madness
besieges this castle of will
Feel the frozen wind
from the bleak outer world
the banner twists in agony
tortured from the world around
the wind seeps through the walls
whispering revelations of despair
it skulks in high lofted ceilings
a messenger of the fallen realm
The moat displays whitened bloated corpses
a cesspool where the slain float
for miles back their casualties are strewn
ours burn on pyres smoke replacing sky
Listen to the sound of the pounding
battering rams
their black winged echoes
fly down these desolate halls
each catapult stone defeats the walls
we labor to repair what falls upon us
the bringers of insanity
dance bizarrely
in celebration
of their coming conquest
Look and see their campfires
like obscene stars fallen to the ground
wallow in dread at the moment's peace
for the battle always resumes
No shining army will rush to our aid
we are to die in this crumbling tomb
I'm being driven mad
specters of bitterness and confusion
circle my head
the mist goes in my ears and exits my mouth
and within they destroy all they can
The bringers of lunacy have breached the walls
remnants of innocence put to the sword
engulfed into the kingdom of the mad
my psyche lays in ruins but now I'm born
3. Gutspawn
In the land of abhorations
through the Versian mountains
birthplace of the Gutspawn nation
their evil king's a bloated creation
stomach with a mouth liquefying crematorium
He ingests the dead for incubation
in the gut starts the deformation
in his swollen innards the creatures go through
a twisted genesis to be born anew
vomited up
grotesque mass
ill contorted
body parts
If their mutated misanthropomorphic form survives
they owe fealty to their father
the detached womb of hell
now a vessel to the king of defiled flesh
allegiance to the army
a child of the gut
In older times an order arose
the vanquishers of chaos came to dispose
the lord and his children
and their appetite for carrion
armor and swords facing
exoskeleton, tentacle and claw
The instrument to kill the creator demon
was an ancient blessed weapon called the spear of Gan
the spear was lost for thousands of years
the knights sought council with the sage in stone
they found him weeping imprisoned in rock
for a stroke of mercy the spear shall be yours
it's in the rotting mountain
and eldritch giant beast
forever decaying in the subarctic ice
Crusade to
unholy land
swallowed up
by destiny
Through the cavernous mouth they entered
into a tunnel like digestive tract
the temperature rose in the hollows
seeing worms as thick as trees
there was the spear
held by the maggot god
warriors yelled their war cry
let your sons bore into you
Their banner on the spear
the mighty host entered the Gutspawn pits
past vaults of the dead
they marched in groaning silence
Steel flashed
visors down
abattoirs made
battles begun
Through the brutal assault wading through the gore
the spearman went the Gut he stood before
before he could strike the mouth ejected spittle
bathed in acid screaming without a throat
the hero on his knees threw the spear
his arm went with it eaten at the socket
he want down halved at the shoulders
but the spear struck home
in the volumous belly
Vomited up
grotesque mass
ill contorted
bodily parts
Atrophied limbs flailed in agony
gaping mouth splattering blood
croaking and wheezing dying in seconds
vile blubber shuddering in anguish
watches his empire crumble
through rolling blistering eyes
then it explodes starting a cave in
killing all but the world survives
4. Infinity Coda
Confronted with things that are finite
logic deals with all that ends
confounded by infinity
man's great ignorance
Infinity Coda
Infinity Coda
Infinity Coda
Infinity Warp
Concept deleted mortal minds
denied godliness mortal pox
fettered by the riddle of foreverness
thorned wall around paradise
Infinity Coda
Infinity Coda
Infinity Coda
Infinity Warp
Enlightened to the point of bewilderment
deaf to the song of creation
blind to the light of the afterworld
what has always been shall always be
Confronted with things that are finite
logic deals with all that ends
confounded by infinity
man's great ignorance
Infinity Coda
Infinity Coda
Infinity Coda
Infinity Warp
Concept deleted mortal minds
denied godliness mortal pox
fettered by the riddle of foreverness
thorned wall around paradise
Infinity Coda
Infinity Coda
Infinity Coda
Infinity Warp
