Naught, these ways, the union of time and space
Divided by hatred, the truth awaits the exhumation
Enveloped in a cycle of injustice against the prospect of balance restored
No longer - your facade has weakened to frailty
Wrath of the blight
Reflecting upon decay
With glazen eyes
Trained upon oblivion
Only one to blame
Unified in this self-inflicted trauma
So utterly pathetic
Yet tragic beyond our faculties
Must our flesh and blood merge as one?
Must our voices be cut from our throats?
Must we lose all that makes us real?
Must we die to see paradise?
No, it cannot wait
This revelation of iniquity
Grieve us
And grieve for yourself
Distraught among the wreckage and putrescence is you
Our impulse, your pleasure, the bridle and bit
But how can its beauty still devour our will?
When all that we live for is our fucking freedom
Captive
Depraved
Shrieking
Maimed
The soul, this vessel
Rots away, dies across your blood-scrawled tome
Ingrained, latent apathy
Still suckling at marrow to fill your needs
Mutilation and paradox
Reduced to suffer
For your pleasure
At your leisure
Must our flesh and blood merge as one?
Must our voices be cut from our throats?
Must we lose all that makes us real?
Must we die to see paradise?
Wrath of the blight
Reflecting upon decay
With glazen eyes
Trained upon oblivion
Lauda in finem
Praise the end
Lauda in finem
The great scourge

Gone, the affirming embrace
Left buried by fucking disdain
Dissected a million different ways and yet
My sanctity was slaughtered by unnatural
Disruption to a shameful degree
Torn away so mercilessly
What I've become is a rageful shell
And within the anguish I drown in my crimson bile
Morbid self-mutilation proceeding
The sacramental tragedy of all of my being
Emptied of organs for the world to see
And hollowed out, there exists no deity
To blame for my falsified duality
Merely the mockery of what I was to be
The punishment is to sever your ties
And I'll make this punishment fit the crime
Ego death propagation
Configured to all the waste
And fucked up beyond any recognition
The pain of death I must impart
To you, the one, my counterpart
Turn away from my hands
Ignore the blood, my counterpart
Take this knife into your heart
Absolving my counterpart
Leave behind your transgressions
Ignore the blood, my counterpart
Right until the end of time
An impairment of the mind
Fallible, inconsequential, human decadence
This agony is echoed only by screams of ominous understanding
Through the embrace of misanthropy, our unified consciousness decrees
Only our pain can deter us from the truth
Only when broken, the cycle will ensue
No gods, no masters, control is for naught
Through rage and through tragedy, we've murdered them all
With every chance wasted
To reclaim humanity
We lie bare and conjoined
And tear at each other's wounds
This is ascendance

Extinction Paradigm
04:17
|

The transcendental plane defiled
Mangled by the hands of the immortal man
Treading betwixt life and death
All there was and all there is - no more
Repressing our cerebral capacity to define this chain reaction thus
Leaving us bereft of consciousness, destroying our sentience - extinction paradigm
Balance now forever displaced
And spread throughout the cosmos, decay
Lost to nothing more than ignorance
As our violent erasure ensues
Extinction paradigm
Juxtaposed by insanity
Left to parallel our own pain
There's nothing that justifies the cause
Crossed beyond the threshold of loss
Ancestral and ever-present
Yet a mockery of omniscience
To dispose of this egotist race
Invoked wrath, hive-minded disgrace
Plead as we might, this is the truth
The unfathomable consequences of our insolence
Radiation expelled, there's no defense
A supernova blast
Freed at last
Our audacious kind
Has masqueraded as God
Now from our inception
Our collective toll must be paid
Embrace the void and turn to ashes
Burn away - this life was finite
Embrace the void and turn to ashes
Freed at last by immolation
Embrace the void and turn to ashes
Burn away - this life was finite
Embrace the void and turn to ashes
Freed at last by immolation
