Prophecies of a Dying World
I spoke to horrors of a dying planet Creatures of a drying sea Nature was forever altered, warped by reality A truth to me was then revealed, born on the wings of destiny Decaying in my silent grave I spoke to kings of heirless thrones An oath to me there was sung The prophecy of their bones I saw by the light of a dying sun A world drowned in blood Descent into ancient crypts of purity unpolluted Transformed to a point of light my essence reconstituted I prepare to carry my burden, prophet of a dying world Into the endless continuum Fated servant to mankind Born predestined to let sound The herald of our doom "And the empires will rise and grow mighty, Engulfing all humanity in their tireless domination, erasing The past and twisting the future...in ancient tombs forgotten Spirits will wither and die, and from the dust of these Crypts there shall rise an entity born of vengeful winds, And from his soul beings will spew forth, abominations Of consciousness who will corrupt and weaken the world, Twisting dreams into nightmares, creating new pain, a suffering That will last forever, and curse our lives through all time..." Apocalyptic visions invade, and the grave opens before me... I ascend from eternal crypts my purity reinstated Cleansed of my human faults I accept the existence to which I am fated Returned to my silent grave Mute witness to our end An oath it is that I now sing The harmony of my suffering I speak to those who shall forever be Twisted spirits who refuse to die Skeletons of forgotten kings In swollen tombs of man they lie I see by the light of a dying sun A world drowning in blood...

Within the tombs of the centuries The gods of the void awaken What has past is retribution The mirror of our damnation In the seeds of time Negative beings leave their spawn Demented obscenities manifest Ravenous appetite led by insanity - A thousand years of misery In the seeds of time My image appears in fury Raging through the centuries To avenge my progenitors For now that I am free The time is at hand No safety in my judgement When my vengeance engulfs the eart Damnation born upon pestilent winds Unleashing the fury of those reborn Armageddon descends upon apocalyptic horses Driven by warriors of hate Emissaries of vengeance ride forth from the sun Flames consume our decaying worlds And all the blood shed by the past In violent glory shall cleanse the earth at last SPAWN - malevolent beings rise Ghastly hunger in their eyes SPAWN - The breed of abhorrence Mankind's abomination SPAWN - Devourers of the earth Creatures of the abyss SPAWN - Precursors to our failure Children of the beyond

Awoken from dormancy I find myself alone Standing in primordial ruin Of an ancestry unknown, a race of elder gods Dreams caress my agony as I live in decay My spirit pines for a time before humanity Voices haunt my sleep As I travel by the moon Vibrations from the dawn of time Shadows beckon me Cannot resit my heritage I leave behind a corpse Torn back through the ages Through the memories and dust To lands of ancestral shadows... Arrived my visions a reality My reign to survive eternity An emperor of chaos A ghost of insanity Enthroned I am now king Dominating prehistory A forgotten lord of blasphemy But soon the time shall come When I awake in frenzy To slaughter the invaders Known to me as man

I am sinking into caverns of my mind Dark abyss has opened Into breathless midnight I lose identity Subterranean descent into ultra conscious non existence Abstractions are elusive, reality confining Illusions are redefining As I approach my genetic core As I approach the unearthly World of grotesque images Abrasive complexities threaten Symbolic metaphors approach Thoughts devour thoughts Through my being unexplored Times ceases continuity Shroud of weightless life Plunging into depths unknown The unearthly - Isolated within Sub atomic reasoning Creates uncertain distances Between reality and consciousness Temporal existence disintegrates into micro molecular infinity Representations of ideas cloud eternal skies beyond the minds eye Thoughts devour, thoughts devour, thoughts devour...

Emptiness into the gulf of light and sound The shadow image netherworlds I journey in my sleep To alternate dimensions A void of living thought The darkness of conception The origin of endless space is limitless creation Seeking the essence Of which we are born I suffer in silence In this expanding abyss Of psychic confusion The world around me fades, the night speaks in forgotten dreams Gates of consciousness open The wind it howls, but I do not hear, it is the light that I fear Suffering recurring misery Infinity strips my mind of thought Vacuum of lost emotions Now the emptiness of my soul Silence suffering silently Scenes of the psychic unknown The cycles of life unfold Spring ascends to summer Fall decays to winter Life is but an illusion Paranoia fueled by confusion The self has no resistance To the immense design of existence This is the world of fear and hate For my soul it is too late The origin of endless life Is limitless desperation (Silence) Nothing ever changes We fade through the ages (Suffering) Endlessness forever lasts As I sink into the past (Silently) Absorbed within my pain Solitary the cold invades Silence suffering silently Unable to understand the agony

Frozen for eternity, awakened to avenge From the snake tombs I arise, inseminating chaos Summoned through astral time, to lay siege to existence Where man now walks I shall walk again Humanity enslaved in infinite paradox I rise through the waves Set fire to the skies I am the ageless one Asphyxiating time Scream my name upon the winds It is the dawn of the returning hate I clock the lands in black Domination is eternal He who once was, I shall be absolute The infernal ways they are the burning truth I rise through the waves set fire to the skies I am the ageless one asphyxiating time Crystal skies reflect seas of blood Entombed in mountains of dying flesh Twisted into unnatural forms of life Grotesque shapes display our inner thoughts At redemption the red judge laughs for the atrocities committed by humanity How can we expect to live when all we ask is to die? Mercy is erased, unforgiven, we die in sin I have risen from the waves The skies writhe in flames I am among you now Asphyxiating time

Ancient soul of the earth Look down upon creation Orbs of glorious crimson The fires of impregnation Penetrate nocturnal years, reflections of the past Incineration of consciousness, heat is sterilizing To a doom that is forsaken in a world of infernal waste Flesh liquefies, leaving the immortal soul Emotions will extinguish within the flaming eyes The voyage of the spirit when the body dies The essence of my lifeforce bound by flaming chains To an eternity of beings trapped within the sun Paralyzed Gazing through the flaming eyes Intensify Cleansing heat will purify My transmigrating mind In the heavens it shall find Endless desolation As I approach my destination Ancient soul of the earth Look down upon creation Orbs of glorious crimson The fires of impregnation Cosmic winds feed astral flames The sun of infinite skies Burning contemplation, my eternal damnation Panoramic disillusions feed my despair Beyond my death terrestrial paradise is forlorn Life suspended, immersed in regret Purgatorial isolation, looking down upon creation The eyes of the sun forever my final home Kingdom of my sorrow, planet of shattered dreams Paralyzed At one with the flaming eyes Dematerialize Emotion is extinguished...

Evasive agony, tears my mind, to know A thousand names in a thousand lives Searching, for reasons that can't exist Again I have been damned To reincarnate, another endless life An eternity of misery Reborn, slave to time Servant, to infinity My eyes tear blood, my heart void of life Emotions forever imprisoned, captive My life begins again In pain... Confusion... Once more... So cold, a blackened heart Futility, feeds my dismay Existence, so barren, when condemned By life In pursuit of truth I realize The pain I feel In pursuit of answers I dematerialize My rage consuming like fire Crimson, my final goodbye To winds of time I cry Revenge, my only goal Substitute for the life I'll never know Valedictions, my cruel farewells Visions of eternity A thousand lives of lunacy Chained to a timeless pain Written in dedication to the eternal champions

Generation after generation The human race mutates to earth The planet nears extinction To emerge in radioactive rebirth Through decades of pollution The earth begins her corrosion Complacency - degeneration deficiency - degeneration A degenerate function we fear our own creations Restricting basic instinct, delusioned self denial A malignant form of life decaying in this gruesome trial Ecolocy turns to toxic hell Never to reawaken Condemned to this earthly cell Humanity forsaken Reflecting on the past, and dreading what is ahead No escape from a closed mind but to leave the earth dead Regression, pollution, mutations - degeneration Denying evolution we conceive the earth's destruction Murder, exploitation, are we really destined to extermination? Corrosion Degradation Repression Confusion Exhumation Culmination Expiration Degeneration
