Antithesis
Tossing, turning, restless Can not sleep Drenched in perspiration Dampened sheets Nestled in nocturnal darkness lay Reeling, my subconscious Mind at play Drifting, fading, falling Losing grasp Clinching, gritting, grinding Teeth I gnash Astroplaning dreamscapes I survey Out of body, spirit floats away Half asleep, half awake Upon the edge of twilight Past the gate, past the maze Guided by your mind's eye Exit the realm of reality Opening the doors of perception Through the corridors Of the labyrinth Enter the limbic void Drawn to moaning voices Calling out my name I walk into a room I thought from which they came Bodies wrapped in orgies Writhe in mortal lust Sculptured figures made of flesh Turn into dust Right before my eyes Changed the scenery As the floor falls out From beneath me Sucked through a hole to an infinity Into the vast unknown Tormented cries of those Cast into the abyss The screams descend And hallow in eternal pitch The vacuum vortex Swallows souls In swirling stew Into the belly of Leviathan they spew- That's when I woke up

This track is instrumental.
God's cruel joke has blown up in our face Damned from creation, mankind a great mistake Man had a purpose, obey the laws in stone But man in his defiance, had made laws of his own Risen from the clay and dirt Man was born unto the earth Master of his destiny, blessed his divinity Man has a free will to whatever he may choose Man has a conscience he chooses not to use Man has the knowledge to envision and create To mastermind barbaric crimes and violent acts of hate So graceful and articulate yet morbid and grotesque Instead of moving forward man seems to have digressed The lion licks his chops and sinks his teeth into his prey The vultures over top strip clean the bones of the remains So cruel and so savage, the nature of the beast The nature of mankind, more brutal than the feast Man is not an animal, too advanced to be evolved Modern man a breed much worse Modern man is a monster Hopeless, it's sad but true, we are hopeless We had our chance, we turn our backs Now it's too late. We cannot save ourselves We can't take back what we've done We can't bring back what is gone Hope, pray, somehow, someday Mankind will change and try to be More human We live our lives fearing ourselves All species beneath us will fear us as well Man chokes the sky and poisons the sea Makes waste of this world of which God make him King God help us all, from grace we will fall And in our plummet we reveal our many flaws Man rapes the world in order to progress Our careless ways will end with our collapse Try seeing the world through our children's eyes We leave behind a legacy of lies Man is a plague, a pestilence that breeds Bastard offspring inherit wicked deeds Man is not an animal, too advanced to be evolved What have we become? Breeders of beasts

I'm stupid, impotent My feelings aren't important I'm useless, worthless Nobody, good for nothing We argue so often I guess I'm good for something Chew me out Bite my head off Spit it out Take it out on me Set your demons free Wounded verbally Scarred internally Words can wound Words can scar Words of war Words are swords Accuse me, it's my fault I'm injured by your insult Intending, offending It's clear, I'm comprehending The more I ignore you The more you push the issue Bite my lip Shout your mouth off Bite your tongue Take it out on me Set your demons free Wound me verbally Scar me mentally All I do you criticize You refuse to compromise What's your point? Do you know? Cut me down, that's your goal Change the subject Must we linger on this topic You won't reason I am finished Wasting my breath Everything is a debate Simple things you complicate Words can wound Words can scar Words of war Words are swords

I rest here on this pillar I am a granite king And you will bow and worship My praises you will sing My immortality The reign goes on forever The valley of the kings Dare you to take my treasure You dare invade my chamber Inside a curse awaits Unearth my sepulture And you just sealed your fate Mere mortals can you hear me I do not want you here I warn you do not trespass In you I strike with fear You start the excavation Grave robbers at first light The glint of gold is blinding To take it only right My patience now is ending You now fall one by one And few will be left standing So shall my wrath be done The boy king now is laughing You fell into his trap You risk your life for fortune In death no turning back You were a flesh and blood king Like any mortal man Your curse is just a mind game You had no master plan Ashes to dust you are, your spirit lost forever Sarcophagus of gold Remains of earthly pleasure I leave you with this question It's time that you decide Was the curse for real? Or just a curse of the mind?

Etched in marble, scarred in memory Meet thy maker be thy judge Life so precious you have taken God have mercy on thy soul Death, the doorway to a new life Passing through the tunnels' light At the end a soul is weeping Heaven's gates have been denied Damn thy soul to roam in limbo Sins upon thy shoulders weighed Exiled angels fall from grace With fractured wings aflame In this realm there are no boundaries Step beyond into unknown Live as shadow, one with darkness Walk among the wailing souls To take thy own life, the ultimate sin Death is no escape, a new life begins Thou art Godforsaken, thou must seek forgiveness Merciful thy judgement, so it shall be done For one thousand years, thou must seek redemption As an apparition, stuck between dimensions In limbo, to roam in spirit A shadow, at one with darkness

Welcome to my parlor, with a gesture I am lured inside Bitten I am helpless as the poison cripples my mind A worthy specimen chosen to be the mate She straddles over me and offers me the bait Caught in her web, as she consumes my head Caught in her web, her appetite is fed Hunger, she devours, her desire overpowers me Stuck in disposition, I'm defenseless, I feel her sting As she seduces me I'm kept immobilized Bound in the ecstasy of what I fantasized Caught in her web, as she consumes my head Caught in her web, her appetite is fed She wraps her legs around me As she contorts her body With all my strength I fight her Constricting even tighter I struggle, she laughs I can't escape her grasp I cannot endure another minute more Mistress, dominatrix, is her fetish Just a fatal wish Torture gives her pleasure She abuses from experience Her mating ritual has merely just begun Another victim lured, another web is spun

Shadows hug the walls Embracing Whispering, breathing On my face Tell me of forbidden dreams Help me help you Make them true confessions Shared Let me know my secret's safe with you Speechless, only body language Translates our emotions Understand Lying, here beside you Undressed feelings exposed Are now expressed Tell me all of your desires Tell me yours are mine to keep Lighting secret fires Moans in morning hours Know not sleep Trusting, exchanging vows Two liars chancing We commit ourselves in lust Knowing, soon the dawn Will end our evening We will count the hours We have spent Lighting secret fires

Who are you to judge like you're a some kind of saint I tell it like it is, you tell it like it ain't I go by what I know, you go by what you hear Preach your hypocrisy to someone else's ear You make me laugh how you perform for your peers I'm not amused, your acting bores me to tears You sit on your throne, your flock, merely clones Deemed king for a day, a self proclaimed savior Upon your pedestal high You symbolize all I despise, you and your kind You represent all I resent, your state of mind You symbolize all I despise, you perpetrate You represent all I resent, you are a fake Contradictions, insert foot in mouth, the truth is out You truly believe that no one perceives you to be A deceiver you are Open your eyes, you haven't got a clue Behind your back, your peers are mocking you Look around you, who can you trust--no one Cover is blown Judas and Brutus are waiting in line... With daggers behind their backs
