Ouroboros
Album • 2015
Freedom from a place so cold and pale, ashes fall. Scratch the icon from the stone, for his path is thorned. We have failed to keep this wretch from killing us. Spear the heart. Crack the skies. Break the chains you bind. Love is the whole of the law. I crawled through the dusts of the earth, Cloaked in the salts of the sand from the sea. Life; idle chaos sculpting form. Servants unto the angels' whore. Hear me now, king of kings. I shall kneel before no god, for I am evermore. Your legs have buckled under crowns of gold, lies and blood. Wretch... Wounds, that sting of dirt and sweat. Here sounds the horn of mules, bleeding ears with empty eyes. Reason, torn free. And now the cinders burn out... To keep this wreath from choking us. Spear the heart. Crack the skies. Break the chains you bind. Love is the whole of the law. I crawled through the dusts of the earth, cloaked in the salts of the sand from the sea. Death; this path is life? No. Saviour, of death (cry), Reason, my name (now) I am the slayer of gods.

Haunted by the fall of Alexandria And the loss of the thoughts its works would inspire We must pull these threads from the fire Bombarded by Rhythm from cosmic horizons Where sacrificial altars Call to the dead Behold Aeons of systematic Decay The reformation of all archaic We are the privileged few Who stand For an instant aware Of our moment in time Neither Ozymandias nor Tithonus Could accept their impermanence Intellectually and corporally We are all doomed eventually In this space At this time How should we live? What sort of people should we be? With the benefit of experience History, literature, philosophy, And no transcendent being's authority. With understanding and self-mastery We can engage our lives For the benefit of humanity Behold Aeons of systematic Change The reformation of all archaic Bombarded by Rhythm from cosmic horizons Where abandoned altars Are transformed anew

Infinitesimal Our lives set in motion We watch distant breakers crash Upon a shifting cosmic ocean One with the universal Churning Continuum of change Endlessly we are replenished And forever rearranged Depthless we dive Conscious evolving Encoded in spiral From the centre revolving Eyeless we writhe, Particles weaving Our lives entangled With the godhead’s dreaming From the glow of relic radiation Filtering through the black eternally Uncovered from red shifting sands We can observe our unity Emanations flow From the font of creation Like mites of matter glistening Through the endless void inane Mirrored in claw, plant and horn Reflected in shell, tooth and storm Fingerprint and DNA What was once being is now becoming The source of this mystic congregation The source of this our dappled world Infinitesimal, we emerge Our lives set in motion We watch distant breakers crash Upon a shifting cosmic ocean One with the universal Churning Continuum of change Endlessly we are replenished And forever rearranged To consider the singularity Is to consider ourselves As an aspect of the universe Experiencing itself subjectively

From the moment you came to me I saw a fragile weakness to create, To mould another victim to suffocate Hear me! I'm a weak and hollow shell Fill my thoughts with your words Make me whole and worthy now I pray... Guide me to heaven... I'll instruct in the way you should go Created sick, you're commanded to be well Submit or perish, take your pick. Inflict pain for the one you love And set yourself free ….Set me free! I submit to your words An open soul to evolve Show me how I should see On my knees begging you, please... Tamed by the greatest myth Whose parasitic worms Writhe deep within The droning twilight of your mind Spiritual hatred's Now all that you know With an undivided heart you shall Feel the lash of another blow For my sins I chase forgiveness Exhausted I kneel, Please, never untie me I am where I belong Wake Martyr Rise Martyr Deceived, never free Enslaved psychologically A void I try to fill As you consume me Submission Submission Submission Observe the mass decay as all obey

Gaze into these eyes of hatred. Stand before you leave this world, of ruin. war has spoiled me. Fear will destroy us, no peace, no solace. from the (core) smallest seed of boon, grows monstrous weakness. And the lie fastens marching legions, with the helm spinning, waging bloodshed. In Darkness, I have braved the bustling oceans. Drowning in nectar, of your sickly madness. I shall swim down not with hands so broken. Release this burden from me. Rise and you will love and fear me. In time you'll see, there is but god in man. Hate will become you, wield courage and truth. From the (ash) thicket of a wreck, grow roses of grace. Not the sword but the flags of reason with the sun setting, on our freedom. Gaze into these eyes of hatred. Stand before you leave this world, of ruin. war has spoiled our lives (pain enslaved) Enslaved our minds, our honour. Rage against the cries of god and angels. Catholicon.

Deathless man alone cry out Amongst deathless gods you shall accept this eternal gift And forever embrace the dawn Engulfed by immortality Madness burns like Bloodshot eyes that Stare for all eternity Abandoned to churning Vast - Time scales Incomprehensible Epochs melt and fade away FADE AWAY! Civilisation: Die out! Obscure lives interred. Godless galaxies: Burn out! Ashes cast to void. TO VOID! Glimmering fragments Of obsidian spheres geodesic Lost shrines to the absent gods’ Scoliotic forgotten testaments Tumbling through expansive space-time I sign a song without tune or rhyme A feeble insect suffering Endlessly… I… have… been… Drifting! Forsaken and forgotten By a dying universe Dreaming… Waiting… Falling through space and time Entropy Release me Fade out! Burn out! Fade out! Burn out! DIE OUT! Succumb to nothing…. At the edge of an ever – expanding sea Beneath heaven’s waves I breathe deep And embrace eternal sleep.

Close your eyes, embrace the silence. For your heart shall never feel again. Your withered hands, wet with tears... But cry not my son, you shall never die. Rising cold, the thunders roll in, From east to west, encircling in blazing Silence. Your wreath, shall be woven through the ages. Eternal life awaits. Sweet respite, evoking beauty. All this time, echoes far from sleep. Your lucid mind, frenzied sound. And black now your sun, sinking in the skies. Rising cold, the thunders roll in, From east to west, encircling in blazing Silence. Your wreath, shall be woven through the ages. Eternal life awaits. All I see is the flickering of flames Roaring down stream. All I taste is the salt of ancient seas Lay me to rest.

The charred wood now stirs, somewhere truly lost. white haze to blur the years. The amber light, torturous writhe. Unconsciously enslaved and wrought, to the end. Siren by the drying brook, weak from this emptiness that you feel, are you not just a dream? Murder by the temple road, split from this existence, that you feared. This world will never be... clean. Forlorn. Bittered, nevermore these words. Plagued by a chain of violent memories. Miles of winding orchard, weaving the ruins wide, ceaselessly aflame and burning white. This weight... All, forlorn... Serotinal... I was prodigious... Strength, despite the cold asunder. Waste, in spite of life, you sacrifice. Winds, invite the dusty slumber Time, relentlessly you destroy. A curse befalls dusk, somewhere truly lost. Unconsciously a slave to thought, in the end. Raging cataclysm, from the abysmal depths of the mind, escape the rising tide. Mist so unrelenting, under the jaded moon Glowing through, a gift of amber bloom. This wait... Withered, nevermore this path. All of my peace has faded into dawn. Buried in the orchard, scalded of deception, paralysed and silent as the grave. This weight... All, forlorn...
