Ilium
EP • 2022
I sniff the wind there's a change in the air The colours seem much brighter I am ever more aware I see another and our thoughts are shared A kinship strengthening We know not many will be spared People dying then dissolving away Our appetites are changing Earth returns to Eden on this day Something strange, an apocalyptic prophecy For some the senses are enhanced For most their genes will prove to be their enemy I sniff the wind there's a change in the air The colours seem much brighter I am ever more aware I can see animals But humanoids are much more rare With nature striking back We new breed are the planet's heirs Something awakens Triggered by malevolence The time has come for nature to fight back This is a quantum evolution event

Tsetse fly Never die Sleeping through the ages Coma bite Endless night Sing the devil's lullabye Tsetse fly Your dreams are mine In trance you lie Parasitized Well of dreams Silent screams I feed on your life Never wake Sleeping state Lost in space and time Tsetse fly You'll never die Just you and I Immortalized

Told to kill Told to die Told there is no other way You can live your life We move en force We've set our sights To find a better way This cause our darkest fight No, we will not heed this anger We will not comply And we set our course A determined force With order lost We seek the underdogs Respect for life Reject their lies From thoughtless hate we turn our backs And sever ties They build their wealth While species die Their futile Hell decays They never wonder why Yeah, we can dissolve the hatred But first we must defy And we're still on course With this rising force And we won't back down Arise the undergods
Sheltering my family Beneath a hostile sky The stars looked ever colder I knew that we would die When they landed I could see They moved like you or I They hunted all our neighbours All I could do was cry Invasion unforeseen The ending of our dream My grief and fear unite These demons end my race tonight Hiding I could see it all Herded in, their bodies fall One by one our species dies Why can't these creatures sympathise? My heart is crying out in pain How many more here still remain? I see no point in moving on So many of my friends are gone Soldiers in a deadly fan Spread across the blood soaked ground Ignoring pleas for mercy A sacrificial mound My heart crying out in pain I am the last one to remain I see no point in moving on My will to live is gone They celebrate their vicious deeds Our planet's grim rebirth Before I die I hear them say They claim this land for Earth

I hide away when dawn brings light I float away on plumes of darkest night I travel on the blackest way Entwined with darkness And the slow brooding veil of decay Like the moth I am a creature of the night Into the darkness Death entwined, why am I So drawn to light Awakening my sight Dichotomy my plight Tormented I'm a mothcaste child I fear nothing but the sun Its glaring eye burns through me This blackness runs within my veins Riding high on the starlight The dark night protects me like a shroud I am regent on the dark side The burning of a lamp is all the light that I'm allowed Like the moth I am a creature of the night Into the darkness But then why am I Drawn to light Awakening my sight Dichotomy my plight Tormented a mothcaste child A creature of the night I'm lusting after light Sheets of darkness steal my sight Forever I moan on the wind The darkness begins To lure you in
