Blood and Dust
04:36
|

Malignancy,
Coming from oceans unto the land
Scour the forest floor, reaping the cold earth
Born of winter to exhume
Lost souls buried
Flesh seeker, Starved spirit
Corrupting wanderers
Searching
Through unending night
Greed eater, sought winter
Gathering blood from soil
Dark forest, quest deeper
There waits the wendigo
Void eyes
Sunken to the bone
Torn smile
Tempting men to the cold
Culling to a husk
Leaving behind blood and dust
From this husk
Leave blood and dust
Shrouding the culled earth
Cacophony
Rolling through the wind eternally
A silence so cold resonates through the mountains
Forces seldom to refrain
From feast of man
Now reclaim and
Scourge the sickness
Rid the blight

Usurper of the Sky
04:51
|
|||
Heavens spilling blood
The usurper of the sky
The Tyrant of the golden age
Fearing vengeance prophesied
A vicious hunger
And the fury of the divine
The madness of the glutton grows
Resting idle, eager
A feast in the dark, fire illuminates
Shame widened stare, narrow frame contorted, he clutches, whitening the knuckles, blood dripping spine
Insatiably consuming, without restraint or respite
Cower in darkness
Oh titan succeeded by none
Maniacal sickness
Fulfill the promise, devour your son
Swallow
Gnaw the essence from each limb and
Wallow
In ecstasy, far from the light
Heavens son
Father's burden
And elation
Feast Saturn
End the cycle
Be reborn
Harvester of kin
Bear the seed of your demise
Rake the stars of all your progeny
Feel your burden slowly rise
Esurience grows
It festers and corrupts the mind
Judgment cast to the sky will befall
Disgorging in time
A feast in the dark, fire illuminates
Shame widened stare, narrow frame contorted, he clutches, whitening the knuckles, blood dripping spine
Insatiably consuming, without restraint or respite
Titan, renewed from the flesh, in time
Undone by the hunger, with thundering cry,
Deposed
Usurped from the sky

Silk and Bone
04:04
|

Bright falls
From the basin shone a welcome draw
A fair vision
Lure of affection for the mislead
Shimmering curtain, flowing
In her reflection, a vision distorting a pale dream
Her serenade flies, carried through the wind
Coursing raw virility
Young blood
Let fly
Shifting, snaring, binding silk and bone
Rest easy, at the shallow waters of desire, where the meek and the callow resign, when the lust of the flesh becomes the silk that’s spun, in her web of song
Beguiled.
Allure of perversion yield to the entangling bride
Sight blurred
Sinking apertures, digging deep, anchored
Gripping with faint desire
Limb by limb deposed, expired
A tainted vision
enthralled in seizing, twirling spire
Blackened, gaze extruding
In their deception, a vision seducing a frail scream
Caught by the bounds of tempering forest
Seeping, taut, and festering
She bores
Still beating
Snapping, skinning, binding silk and bone
Suffer to the bride, frozen, petrified
Bind silk and bone

The Last Hunt
02:48
|
|||
For reclamation
A vow of unjust purpose
For absolute valour
A trophy to possess
To prove superior
Foray
To the hunt, glory calls
The fury
Of pride preceding the fall
Treading the path of delusion
Pursuing game so elusive, tormenting
Sworn to adorn with the spoils of vanity
Humility lost to hunter’s conceit
The hunters are converging
Locking eyes
Nature’s condemnation
In the pursuit of a myth
Piercing into the night
Standing resolute with
Its gaze, burning white
Oh
Burning white
No lion knows mercy, only prey
No man can see the Irony
The sun sets on this rivalry
The hunt ends today
Natures creed is indifference
Pursuing misplaced arrogance, faltering
Tearing skin, adorning the blood of the enemy
Primal judgement shall remain supreme

This Verdant Coil
04:50
|
|||
Ache of undying apathy
Slovenly soul
Forsake this life, resign from light and mortal
duty
Take self abdication, wallow in sloth and ruin
Farther
Deeper, the forest grows
Emerald pillars of earthly judgment, scold
A condemnation of sheer indifference
A path forged, callous and cold
And as winds draw listless, as above
Beneath the fissured earth, so below
Sunken, before the mire,
whispering “repose”
Renewing breath, of all life
Ridding its weary toll
Twisted, silent reeds lurking,
Take their hold
Feel warm embrace, break surface
Pull flesh from bone liberate me of purpose and plight
Rebirth
Once idle hands, grasp at the air
Expel the silence from my lungs
Into the soil, breathe hollow prayer
In the mire, forgotten by the sun
Wake up now
Wake
Shed this dream and its mortal coil
Enter the lucid collective, in pulsing soil
Stretching thin, alone within and without form
Faceless, piercing the earth, a burden no more
Outward: rind from skin, desiccated and torn
Inward: under bleak consciousness, a sullen, fragile core
A resignation to indifference
A soul bound, rotted and old
And as the pillars reach into the sky
Beyond the mire, never known
No semblance to remember
A visage lost, overgrown and exorcised
Seize the bones and drive them deep into the fertile earth
Forgotten
Body and mind intertwined and dissolved
Relinquishing life, a mercy to languish eternal inside
Internally, cry out, silent forever
Captive of the mire
Tethered to to all things
Rid of desire and devotion bare, the green man's suffering
Forgotten, forsaken the sun
Forsaken the sun
Take
Take the path of indolence
Fade
Without reverence
Shade
Forever bask in lights absence
Wait
An eternity spent
Waiting

Scathe of Branches
04:55
|

Rise
World cleanser, branching forth, sweeping higher
Stoke the embers, raze this earth, rebirth it into fire
Burn
And set the sun, for all time
The scion of fire rides,
to the north, from the sky
Glowing waves of ash and thunder
Rolling fast, bellowing louder
Tread the flame, before and after
Char the surface, brought to embers
Clash the flaming tides
Walls of stone, sink beneath, cloven skies
Fan the blade, held high
Brandishing wrath’s edge burning bright
And from the ashes of old
The skies will break open and burn
A blade will outshine the sun
The scathe of branches absolves
Absolve
Black,
Resting upon the edge, at land’s-end
Go forth and harry, scorch the vale, renew each world in fire,
and carry the eternal flame, casting through heavens to tree of all life
Plunge into the roots and hear its cry
Thence the sons shall ride
Melt the bonds, from the bridge, to the sky
Let the blade's edge shine
An inferno burning through the night
Flowing from creation, rivers carve and scar the rime
Pulsing with the venom, through the veins into the frozen primordial void
Melting through the abyss, in a storm of cleansing fire
Rising through the ages and burning all through the night
To the ash return
From torn sky and the blistered earth
Let the world renew in time
It will outshine the sun
The scathe of branches absolves
And to the ashes return
Scion of fire

Damned to the Deep
05:28
|
|||
A final judgement,
prayer of fire, pulled to the depths
It’s bellowing maw,
boiling the oceans and forcing repent
Coveting mortals,
punishing man for what it’s without.
Encompassing the world from its tail to its mouth
The serpent lingers,
on the branch, forbidden to rise
Sentinel to knowledge desired
Tormenting, borne by lights, so brilliant,
Seduction of freedom from welcoming eyes
Lamenting, the demon thirsts for life
From waters, retire, found shelter, desired
Slain monster, raise chalice, a feast for, the righteous
Beast of envy
Tortured beast,
forged from the darkness, brought to the cusp
Colossus, provenance of the deep and terminus
Depth dwelling,
created in vain, forbidden from sight
Pierce through its skin and bathe in His light
The serpent descends
From the branch, its tongue splayed out
Facing judgment, horns towards parting of skies
A feast for the righteous
Slain demon, deliver, penitent, deceiver
Purge the sea,
Slay demon righteously
Sacred beast,
Deliver unto thee
Serpents plea,
Penitent to deceive
Leviathan damned to the deep
Damned to the sea, sinking
Down in the deep, far below
Damned to the sea, farther
Down in the deep, below the surface
