So here we are, all alone
with misty eyes
What brought us home
It had to end us all
And I heard you call, but could not see the light
Only ocean, that buries all life
Your sickness to the stars
Inside the cave at night alone, that holds it all
They came from far and wide to see
The smoke from pyres destiny
What carries us beyond
Will bury us at night
Just to believe, what’s in our minds
Our sickness to the stars
Inside the cave of night alone, that holds it all
They prayed to understand, a final chance to change it all
Through the gates, beyond the call
And when every single word they say, becomes a rope that hangs us all
These separating worlds, of flesh and soul
One is willing, the other cold
Were sentenced to the stars
Inside the cave of night alone, that holds it all
What carries us beyond, it buries us at night again
We leave it all

Seed

One God, beneath o so many
In search of, the great ancient passage
Wherever he went, nothing was found
Whenever he came back, from the beyond
Breathing life, into you
At the instant of your birth my child
Pulling back, the veil of life
At the instant of your death
I raise my hands towards the sky
Travel through time, far beyond the mind
Golden of the hearts, the seed of light
Wherever you go, you come undone
The servants of man, masters of no one
Now wake them up, set them free, let their blood lead our way
To a place beyond the grave
Breathing life, into you
At the instant of your birth my child
Pulling back, the veil of life
At the instant of your death
I raise my hands towards the sky
Travel through time, far beyond the mind
Golden of the hearts, the seed of light
Wherever you go, you come undone

Ambrosia

War comes closer, our ambrosia
Let their world burn clear
Coming on closer, growing bolder
Striking fear from hearts
Beyond the gates of mind,
we stand before our summoned gods
Await the dealing hand,
expect no mercy from your own
Now face the beast in chains,
turned on his own and on himself
Much more to life than death,
in my sight and far beyond
War comes closer, our ambrosia
Let their world burn clear
Coming on closer, growing bolder
Striking fear from hearts
All sins inherited,
some serve an ancient legacy
And as it all begins to fall,
how blessed we are
Now here the widows sing,
pray for a past to come back home
We left it all to serve the gods,
our leaders holy light
So light the pyres up,
you’ll rise again against the odds
Against the cold, this promise of old
So let them know
Now let them see
What we see
War comes closer, our ambrosia
Let their world burn clear
Coming on closer, growing bolder
Striking fear from hearts

Destroyer

Arrows came falling
Swords from the sky
Tried to break down resistance
As they aimed for our minds
Say can you hear me now
At war for our gods
Say will you guide me through this
As my soul grows cold
Let go of your shield
As time slows down
When there's no more resistance
Their swords cannot shine
In silence, you carry
Your burden, now bury
Let your sacrifice - Lead them
Now bleeding through time - Eternal
In silence, you carry
Their burden, now bury
Ascend from this earth
Kings of war
Our sacrifice
triumphs the cold
As we become - Kings of war

House of Serpents
05:12
|
|
||
|
A river set aflame
Walls broken down and spirits shattered
Slowly your vision dies
One thousand shields they will not matter
Beg for your soul
Breath from your wounds
You enlighten me - As I atone my sins
All I see is flames
Within the void of stars
Come see their Christ drown in this matter
Whispers they call for war
All worlds erode in a house of serpents
You enlighten me - As I atone my sins
All I see is flames - As you enlighten me

The Mound
04:59

|

A giant mound arise at center of our world
We all worship, the great house upon the hill
Drinking the blackest mud, to purge the evil out
We all worship, the great house upon the hill
Taken to the altar
Reaching for the other side
Buried in the black mound
Placed upon the altar
Bleeding for immortal life
Buried in the black mound
Rise before your god
As all rivers reverse, once bringers of life
Now fill up with mud and blood, this sacrifice
Famine and rebellion, the hands that holds the knife
Now digging through the dirt, in search of breath & light
Living in darkness in darkness, bring me your light
No one can save me, no one but me
As our world corrodes, empires demise
No words in 600 years - then all screams at once
Did all that we were told, and all it brought was drought
Hands digging through the dirt, in search of breath & light

Restless Seer
05:49
|
|
||
|
Descending from stars, of eons age
Holiest of kings, we all fought in vain
Clearing up the past, it’s all in your mind
You ruler of the altar
Restless Seer, I hear your whisper
Night follows day and day the night
The pendulum swings from living to the dead
Where is my faith, please tell me now
I feel as I am, sinking into the ground
Now there is no world to alter
Restless Seer, I hear your whisper
Spread out in time
A bond to heaven, sealed by the seal of earth
Restless through rivers, in temple caves
Feed them the golden eyes, enlighten minds
Move into darkness, our eyes blacked out
