The Rise of Self
This track is instrumental.
Beneath the rotting orchids Buried in crimson she lies Tragedy stole her future swiftly A kiss from death stills her cries Grief takes its toll on my heart The pain of mourning denied A reason to hate controls me As my reason to live dies Love raped and lost But desire still yet bleeds To take the life of those Who stole her life from me To solemnly eradicate those Upon which my hatred feeds Til' passion guides my weakened mind And I rest with the deceased And sleep forever Whilst Eternity Burns Stigmatized through archaic overture Til' the sunless dawn return Phantom idols to which she died Lay in ruin by my hand As I sow the seeds of debility Across this crippled graveland Sorcerers of cessation What have you done to her Why did you take away her life So that mine now must endure Agony through emotions Is the only thing I feel Having to sacrifice myself So I can know that this is real? I dwindle within the vastness of emptiness Its cold touch renders me senseless Anger fills me more than sadness A desire to kill rather than mourn Overwhelms me entirely.

I felt a change in this world Where everything was damned A sign of rebirth Paradise found as I desert myself From the walks of yesterday To see beyond the horizon I look to them - those who left behind Their shattered dreams of life Hoping to be saved By someone stronger than myself Why can't they feel the pain of dying? Why can't they see me dying? I reached for them - but I was left to die I was deserted at the gates of the beyond Forever imprisoned in my self Lost among the forgotten shadows In sight of immortality So much has lust and narcissitc endeavors Corrputed the soul So much I've learned from them - the damned Why can't they see they're dying? Why can't they see you're dying? No rest until I cleanse the world of living fallacy Rage guide this incorrigible soul To those who would abandon me I am the sick I am the end I am the plague which visits thee Indocile hate breeds potent rage As the dead declare war on humanity For too long I've lain here in waiting Waiting until now to strike! The children of your sin Shall burn in their beds Those damned to be raised Under the guise of your curse Cruelly stricken from your lineage Your progeny expunged No tears taste sweeter Than those wept In Anguished Verse Under the domination of a forced regime The noble in virtue will whore themselves to me This dreadful seduction portrayed In such tenebrous display Innocence torn and lost so shamefully I reached for them - but I was left to die I was deserted at the gates of the beyond Forever imprisoned in my self Lost among the forgotten shadows In sight of immortality

In this dark time of creation Paint these hours in black These moments only I know And curse my soul forever To scar me for what I have done Beyond all comprehension Of this paradox of creation The cries of millions pass my ears. Everything spirals downwards As it has always done It's so easy to live in darkness When it's all you've ever known Accepting a life void of hope They swim in a river of death Their pitiful souls know nothing But a sick and desparate past It all hurts so terribly That I can barely stand Who wants to see me like this? Wanting to forget myself And the choices I have made The damned look for a savior And search beyond their dreams To take existance for granted - and immortality Lost in the twisted delusions And impossible beliefs Of divine intervention To save them from themselves A speck of dust on the surface A single grain of sand Remnants of a sickening existance Swept away by my hand Compassion once a burden Tonight I'll let it lie Waiting to face the morning Knowing I watched them die. Innocence forever gone Perversion reigns in this world Decaying parasite of life Destined forever to infest Do not reach for me in faith You'll be cut off at the hand I'm not your merciful savior I'm here to watch you die.
