Coalescing/Collapsing
04:33
|

Delusory subjective world, a temporary stage
Losing contact with meaning and preconception
Tearing away the illusions and reflections
For life and death are one
Entwined in eternity
In the depths of the abyss
Where you end, I begin
Within, without, formless yet with form
Tearing away the fabric between
What truly is and what is perceived
When your somatic form is shattered and displaced
Incorporeal parts are still entangled in me
Our past, present and future enduring
Intrinsically linked yet decomposing
For life and death are one
Entwined in eternity
In the depths of the abyss
Where you end, I begin
Within, without, formless yet with form
Tearing away the fabric between
What truly is and what is perceived
When your somatic form is shattered and displaced
Particles of you are still entangled in me
“The ones you lived in when you loved me”
Intrinsically linked yet decomposing
Delusory subjective world, a temporary stage
Losing contact with meaning and preconception
Tearing away the illusions and reflections
From the abyss we arise and to the abyss we shall return
Coalescing than collapsing
Collapsing than coalescing
We form a system, that’s inherently flawed
We are the dead weight around the neck of the universe
Coalescing than collapsing
Collapsing than coalescing

All Torments Are Just
04:15

I’ll tell you honestly I’ve never felt free
I hide my desire as if Heaven couldn’t see
How long can I live with delusions in my heart
When will the thought of repentance come on
I spent a little time in hell
Now I’ll never shine as bright again
If I remember all my sins
Than surely God won’t forget
‘Cause I spent a little time in hell
Yeah we spent some time in hell
No atonement for our sins
Cause surely God won’t forgive
My eyes have always been shut to the light
No great revelation, no use for supplication
Just discipline me in your wrath
I’ll stay faithful to the point of death
I spent a little time in hell
Now I’ll never shine as bright again
If I remember all my sins
Than surely God won’t forget
‘Cause I spent a little time in hell
Yeah we spent some time in hell
No atonement for our sins
Cause surely God won’t forgive
Cast me out for my transgressions
Sever the tongue that speaks treacheries and deception
When desire overtakes discipline
All torments are just, and we deserve punishment
Cast me out for my transgressions
Sever the hand that carries loathing and perversion
When desire overtakes discipline
All torments are just, and we deserve punishment
I spent a little time in Hell
And now I’ll never shine as bright again
“We suffer as we choose”
And I will not let myself forget
That we spent a little time in Hell
Yeah we spent some tell in Hell
No atonement for our sins
We deserve punishment

I’ve prayed for absolution but you have taught me it requires blood
So I’ll rend my heart I’ll wreck my flesh
A piece of me for a piece of salvation
I want to know perfection, I want to feel your love
I hear your pallid lips sing sweetly, veracious words that haunt
To taste salvation is to suffer
You must cleanse the corruption from your heart
There’s no sacrifice in praise and adoration
True worship requires blood
Perfidious love is adorned in praise and adoration
But you my love deserve blood
I’ve prayed for redemption now I know it requires blood
So I’ll rend my heart I’ll wreck my flesh
A piece of me for a piece of eternity
I want to know your perfection, a love omnigenous and without end
I hear your pallid lips sing sweetly, veracious words that haunt
You must liberate this bondage of flesh
You’ll only know this beauty through death
There’s no sacrifice in praise and adoration
True worship requires blood
Perfidious love is adorned in praise and adoration
But you my love, you my love, you love my love deserve blood
Your perfection only reflects
There will be no transformation without bloodshed
No true worship without sacrifice
So I’ll Strip away my inner workings to find the path to God
Not through absolution, only blood
That’s all that lies between your beauty and my heart
Your perfection only reflects
There will be no transformation without bloodshed
No true worship without sacrifice
So I’ll Strip away my inner workings til I find
Nothing between you and my heart
Because you’re the only thing I’ve ever loved

We’ll drink from the depths of eternity
Drape ourselves in the blood of deities
Our love is the only God we need
We won’t seek atonement
The blood will cleanse our conscience
So that we may serve our living God!

Bitter Wounds
04:04
|
|||
Empty ahead
Empty behind
As if eternity ends right here
Lightless and lifeless, as if everything had been long abandoned
Only the growing horror leaving nothing but this deprivation that’s surrounding us
This is the end of everything I know
Of everything I love
Suffer, endure, amend
Always in my heart, absent in the flesh
Remove and destroy
This longing for hope
This last vestige of what we where
Lost in the darkness
Every moment is a new and searing degeneration
Only the growing horror leaving nothing but this indifference that’s surrounding us
This is the end of everything I know
Of everything I love
Suffer, endure, amend
Always in my heart, absent in the flesh
Tell me love did you forget that forever never ends
Mere thoughts of you mean more to me, than the whole of eternity
When I sleep at night you haunt my dreams
So the waking world just feels incomplete
This bitter wound that neither kills nor heals
Just as a constant reminder of how your absences feels
These moments of love are fleeting at best
And only serve to make the rest of life dull and desolate
Suffer, endure, amend
Absent in your heart, absent in the flesh
Tell me love, did you forget that forever never ends

Cut In, Burn Deep
04:27
|

I know my heart is linked to yours
A caelo usque ad centrum
Through blood and flame
We’ll cut in, we’ll burn deep
We’ll separate ourselves from
These mortal constraints
Well I have seen, the path of misery
That awaits you and me
I know, I know
Its so far from where we want to be
We’ll have to set a fire so bright
That it blinds God’s eyes
Than we’ll walk hand in hand into oblivion
The decay in my heart, is also in yours
We’ll let it rot away the flesh
Transcend our mortal limitations
My heart is linked to yours
(A caelo usque ad centrum)
We’ll tear through the sinew
Let eternity pour out
Set fire to burn away our hearts because
Forever can’t come fast enough
Well I have seen, the path of misery
That awaits you and me
I know, I know
Its so far from where we want to be
We’ll have to set a fire so bright
That it blinds God’s eyes
Than we’ll walk hand in hand into oblivion
The malice in my heart, is also in yours
We’ll let it to twist away these chains
That bind us to our mortal shame
My heart is linked to yours
(A caelo usque ad centrum)
We’ll tear through the sinew
Let eternity pour out
Set fire to burn away our hearts because
Forever can’t come fast enough
Well I have seen, the path of misery
That awaits you and me
I know, I know
Its so far from where we want to be
We’ll have to set a fire so bright
That it blinds God’s eyes
Than we’ll can walk hand in hand into oblivion
Through blood and flame
We’ll cut in, we’ll burn deep
Set fire to our hearts because
Forever can’t come fast enough
