Find Worth

Find worth in a worthless world
Devour your heart, siphon your soul
With all that you have, you'll never be enough
We'll take until there's nothing left
Devour the droves in their drawn out gaze
Any flicker of light will soon be erased
I dissolve my soul and swallow resolve
The world that bore me condemned to devolve
I curse the mountains, I curse the trees
I count our failures in modern cities
This world was too incredible, we let ugliness in
The foul light of man, Burns through our skin
We wage endless war for blood and oil
The sheep will go to slaughter and the axis continues to grind
O' Saint of the deep, i invoke thee
Reclaim these lands from the modern reign of man
O' Saint of fertility, i demand of thee
Revoke your name, let every cradle break
O' God of the weak, i send my sword to thee
Every action in your name, be doomed to dark and flame

Beneath a sea of trees a voice calls out
A congregation of faint flickering lights in procession
His eyes seduce and stalk, from places hidden and dark
His gaze is upon me now I feel him gnaw and flay my mind
His words poison my mind. His arms envelop, draw me close
His presence now looms. I feel no sense of self
His grasp now crushing, I gasp for air, he casts me out
Now man walks alone
This land no longer his throne
I commune with you, I stand with empty hands
I consume your essence and you guide my hand
Now float through darkness, it is within me
You pass through ages as time flows through me
I feel the presence of ancients they follow me out this dark haven
Through the ceaseless downpour is a timeless war with our conscious
Now man won't walk alone, be seated in twilit throne
I command a ruthless and dark hand
I cast its shadow across the land
Corrupt and consume the weak minds of men
Submit to my will. To my throne I ascend
Now I walk the earth again, to rule the realms of men

Waltz Joyless

O' withered shade of man, you've lost yourself in the dark again
I offer you my hand, with eternity, would you take this final dance
We weave a complex form, a fit and a flurry in a violent storm
We cast our bodies apart and orbit each other
In a moment of calm
We clash together, our hands interlocked and I am so weary now
O' penitent man, I'll guide you through this infernal dance
Our bodies dislocate as your mind starts to erase, we contort as time is displaced
Now reflect back to your time on earth
Were you a just man and what was it worth?
I took no partner in life, bore no children
I spent my days in repentance and prayer
But no word ever came to me
There was nobody there.
I devoted all my life
Kneeled before the cross and it bore for me no knowledge, no enlightenment
Now I wish to repent, for the sins that I've committed
I put my faith in the words of foolish men
We resume our final form
A darkened repose in a tranquil dawn
We draw our bodies together, in a cold embrace
A moment of bliss
We drift apart
Our flesh is erased and I see so clearly now
I lived my life blind, in halls of countenance and incandescent light
I learn now how to see as I walk this darkness through eternity
It's the only thing that awaits me now
I feel it's embrace
It pulls me down
And erases me

Servitude (Bonus Track)
08:15
|
|||
The ancient wound has a balm to soothe
The Burning Fever of untold truths
A forbidden doorway built for you
There's a place below where all are known
Fall down to untamed lies
Or conquer the rage inside
Rise now from lawless infernal dominion
For all the nights of hunger
Where the dawn was the dark in our hearts
We bring damnation
Lead the scourge from the earth to the stars
In servitude we breed terror
For all the time I've slumbered
For the warmth I'm denied in my scars
We bring damnation
For all who wander the eternal fields
Endless in number their crimes unsealed
Horrors in nameless graves
For those that dwell under the black knights spell
Twilight but a memory not yet stale
In darkness we shine forevermore
