Wake
As the spring rain hits my face I quietly realize this could end no other way And as the ground slowly turns black and wet I solemnly walk astray Down in a hollow of this rock Sorry pieces that faintly resembles I'll carry this along somehow My burden alone to bear I draw a silent breath A pungent smell of wet soil fills the air The sky gave finally way And the pieces yet remains From below a gleaming sky A slow movement of confusion and regret A way out is running thin And the journey is to beguin Slow your breath Lower your gaze Stow your intentions Forget your ways This is the turning point An open passage way As the realities of common life And your old self fades away

Dark clouds, covers the naked sun Hide sky from above you, Suck the warmth from out the ground As cold wind chill the marrow in your bone Just think upon, What you have done You've gone and fucked them all, And they'll soon be dead and gone Red sun shatters the clouded sky Casting a bloody glow about Mirroring a gruesome sight As fresh blood seeps into sludge and mire You stop and sigh And question why You allowed your life to go so awry And as the sun slowly slips into it's slumbering dip And allow night to fall Marching feet in the night with a purposeful stride Catch you at a crawl Cold hands grips Shackles bite tight and locks your mind Blue skies displaying a beaming sun Bringing life back to this world Waking up the sleeping ones As you slowly drift to your fate A thousand dead eyes observing with hate While you pass... Pass through the gate

As evening light dimming down its golden glow Shadows growing longer on the desert floor The canopy is wide and open staring down with burning eyes Mysterious forces creeping under my hide Funny figures flit dancing on your retina Flickering in the flooding light Dark contours contort Shapeless shadows vanishing Patterns praying in your mind White foam froths Ripples on the silver chord Echoing in the cutting cold Black steam blow Fumes are flowing endlessly Golden challice crumbeling Loosing sense of space and time I feel the voices showing Dormant senses in my body lets me see Sights of the worlds beyond me opens Memories of times before awoken

A life spent brewing the obsession To raise monuments off loss Purposeless measure for grand aspirations The work is worth less than the cost And the result is better off Waste not want not A heavy burden for any sane man Shallow movements to abide Empty gestures to disperse them The dark will swallow the derived And keep disciples in the blind Waste not want not A trail of cracked and crumbling sillouettes A garden of corroded hopes His legacy will sing over dirt and dust As the sun will set once more Dark passions and a cowards hands Heart of war, mouth of decay The craft was weaker than the will to build As the ambtions swept away A firm mask of confidence A foundation of earth The strong and the unbreakable Are built broken from birth Build your ruins Make your early grave All your structures Are created to fade As the sun breaks through the dark And the night turns into day There is nothing left to say

Silence chimes Salt seas brime Hibernate in slow vibration Dream the larval Great massed mind Breathe the sludge of time Bring the storm to cleanse us all Solemn Stone Bathe in mystery Stand alone Past all end to see Pillars of perennity Dark skies fall End it all Writhing tense in slow descension See us falter War cries call Doom upon us all This is where your worlds divide See, the tides bring back the blinded profecies, wash ashore the myths of blood Time dilutes the stage of infancy, Drink your milk mixed with the mud Salts of fire from stone The secrets in the kiss Accept the silent teachings Of the eternal Megalith

Bear that sphere Like your first born You'll guard it with your life Raised to face The shining The honour it till you die A searing pain flashes through his veins As his flesh touches the orb A wave of fear, to stand before the object Shakes him to the core His grip is trembling around the burning ball His shadow's withering away A lifetime spent in awe of the eternal A purpose lost in the decay His skin now blistered and black His muscles aching and sore A million lives, spared through his efforts A creature shunned forevermore

One nation under God Where is God in this nation? No one is safe, our worst fears are yet to come I will embrace the end This nation is decaying from the inside out I realize we live lives of lies Stab out my eyes and rid me of my sight This culture teaches us how to die So we must stand and fight for what is right We are the threat Try and cut me down but you won't You think you're so smart like you know something I don't Well know this I'm sick of the lies Never will I bow to you Never will I die One nation under God Where is God in this nation? This nation is decaying from the inside out I realize we live lives of lies Stab out my eyes and rid me of my sight This culture teaches us how to die But we must stand and fight for what is right You are not safe, your worst fears are yet to come When death rears its ugly head you will rue the day I will embrace the end We are the threat We are the threat

Bright rays wakes to life Movements of mind Patterns unwind Mount the backs of birds of prey Process of decay Lead the way Ice cold stare Feathery touch, shades of grey White taste of time Smoke clears the line Flesh left behind Painted path clear as day Process of decay Move don't stay Lifted spirits, path of way Climbing higher Take to flight Wings in motion Move towards the light Closing in as Shapes take form Rip the clouds Break through the storm Open space invade the mind Seeping through to nest inside

Deep in the earth, where the sleeper gives birth to great wonders In the belly of the soil where all living recoils and daylight gets torn asunder Among false deeds and swollen leafs they slumber As rites of passage clears the ashes exposes the worn and plundered Where no thought dwell... They feed the broken shell Where the unconscious still lingers The flicking of delicate fingers Of the dirt out of wasted attempts A sting of hope moving in the debris Of the ashes out of fear and contempt A single breath of life flows in the breeze In days of yore, the seeker explored lost faces When the ears of the broken hears the unspoken and connects the fading traces Old tragedies becomes new remedies to bring action Where all is destroyed, out of the void breeds a new distraction With no air to dream There is no life to be seen Where the ghosts still roam Is where they call their home Dark, cavelike halls Tear down the walls Let out the night Damp, suffocating rooms Air out the womb Let in the light Oh, great winds, give me the wings to soar once again Oh, take me with you, carry me up high and rejoyce as I ascend Thanks to niklas for sending these lyrics.
