How the marked foe beckons
And now their woe begins
How the marked foe beckons
To be unmade whole again
By torture as true as their words false
Their chance to repent was the hour long lost
Eyes bathed in the ashes of their deeds
Ears enraptured in ceaseless splinters
From tongues whipped aflame
Ignited by the blackest fire
Pierced by words of the forgotten
Like a thousand winged daggers
Stature murdered
Speechless rendered
Yet still it beckons
Out tunnels that shat forth their lies
Against the putrid tide
The blade crawls inside
Together ascending
Up the spire of torment
Forever descending
In a pyre of serpents
Beget the age of cleansing
Here rinse, unholy Bathory
Unlock an age of screams
Mine blade, the key
Their flesh, the door
Therein, their every woe reborn
With sharpened silver
Betwixt weakened marrow
It shall open
Absconding the treasures of your heart
Under the pale winter shroud
It shall open
And with every gaping wound
It shall open

Below The Bog
08:29
|

Down in the mire
Belong
Downward and below
This cesspool infinite
Placid and blackened
Beneath a chasm of pestilence
The lowest form of unlife
Squirming beneath the brine
The lowest denominator
In a domain of filth
Sunken to the end of time
This cesspool infinite
Squirm beneath the brine
Inundated with plagues
As the last of virtue fades
Drown
Downward down, and forever drown
In the old black bog, where the demons call
Down through dark, to the devils maw
The infernal hall, where the hellhounds spawn
Onward on, slay the morning dawn
To blind the eyes of god, swallow the rising sun
Through the lands afar, the world of Christ will fall
End their failed façade, bring forth Satan’s law

Frail Existence
06:55
|

Your bones shall wilt
Your will shall wither
Your worth shall wain
Your soul will shrivel
Frail existence
Rise toward the gallows
Forlorn- a life devoid of gain
Adorn- with crown of inner shame
Servile- kneel to be enslaved
Aspire- forever to be claimed
Smothered by guilt
And perpetual derision
Worthless your fate
Awaiting subjugation
Grovel in your hole
Akin to the maggots
Beholding the end
Arise toward the gallows

The nature of this devil lurks in black corners of this heart
Knowing one truth pure
It breathes fire in this hearth
Waiting for the hour
Waiting for the moment
As it covets, and it covets
Arisen from shadow, arisen from flame
Born is he, born in me
Voices crawl within, voices howl within
That I should slake this thirst and complete the destiny
As it covets, and it covets
Covet the serene gloom
Such for a scene so pure
Of the last light left your eyes
No rekindled flame
The final page has turned
No epilogue
Howling our dominion atop the tallest tower
Casting your hollow husk down the deepest abyss
Finally to wash away the yearning
Finally to drink it down
Gurgling your blood in a triumph most raw

Those Miserable Years
11:33
|
|||
No life awaits you now
From your lonely first breath of weakness
Fell the last drop left of hope defeated
Bestowed a penance as olden and as ceaseless
As a million more malignant seasons
With each dry heave of reassurance
Another cask opened of false promise
Long forgotten is the difference
Of will and desperation
How the ages have passed
A shell of once what was
A futile persistence
Feeding at the bottom
All fulfillment has abandoned
And has just as well never been
Solitude, your only ally
Where the fuck do you think you're going??
Pathetic dripping trails of blight
Betray your limping and writhing plight
Leading a bleak and meaningless life
As long and slow as its death
Lurking on in sorrow
In those miserable years
That were then…and are now
Crawling on in shadow
In those miserable years
That were then…and are forever

Throne
05:51
|
|||
Clasped with sword of unlight
Put to death, angelic spies
Crowned as lord of eternal night
With none above and none at side
Eons age
Ages fade
Nocturnal funeral of time
Transcending dimensions
Disembodied and departed
To reign in blackened halls
Clasped with sword of unlight
Put to death, angelic spies
Crowned as lord of eternal night
With none above and none at side
Forever dwell in spectral chasms
Blown by waves of nebular winds
Vortex of distal solitude
Mount the throne of eerie bliss

We must play our lives like soldiers in the field
The life is short
I'm running faster all the time
Strength and beauty destined to decay
So cut the rose in full bloom
'Til the fearless come and the act is done
A love like blood
A love like blood
'Til the fearless come and the act is done
A love like blood
A love like blood
Everyday through all frustration and despair
Love and hate fight with burning hearts
'Til legends live and man is god again
And self-preservation rules the day no more
We must dream of promised lands and fields
That's never fade in season
As we move towards no end
We learn to die
Red tears are shed on gray
'Til the fearless come and the act is done
'Til the fearless come and the act is done
