The Thousandfold Epicentre

No lyrics have been submitted for this track yet.

A voice called from beyond the stars By way of the serpent whirling through my veins Through the clatter of the iron age Into the dreams of the insane: Turn away from the light again! And I was accosted by fear And my skin was salty from my tears But ever your radiance shone me sights of Gloria And brought me back to contest the light again! So I looked around for your sigils And I found them in the blood of your brood The empty and desolate, the void within the storm Abomination that sheds his light again I have drowned my heart in sorrow I have closed my soul to man I have wallowed in in the darkness I have embraced the death I shall never see the light again! My body is chiming With the thought that fills the universe I must needs cut out my senses Lest his word becomes my hearse A pound of flesh, a pound of flesh The keeper demands a pound of flesh Skin for skin, skin for skin Bred and sired in box and sin Woe is them, woe is them Who wears these chains as golden mesh Rain of ash, rain of ash As holy flesh and sulphur clash I know their torment shall never pass Haunted forever by love and distress In the endless desert wings, strewn with broken glass My King of Chaos stands in a realm of boiling brass On the wings of Gloria Across the plane of sadness Contraction and expansion From the death into the death From the middle of never Into the endless ever after I stride among the broken clock Proclaiming "Lord, I am your rock!" Build on me your empire of euphoria! Kindle me with your unborn breath Let me fly on the wings of Gloria! Let me fly on the wings of death! So I have raised a temple of blood and bone On the vanquished reason surrounds my soul The stairway is open, the circle is whole The dragon spreads its light again! So make your wings to shine And make your eyes to beam Make your dark as fire so bright Burn my eyes with its light So I may never see the light again!

You arms are many And reaching for And through your finger tips I feel your heart Your eyes are piercing And seeing all And through your tears My soul is calmed Your skin is sallow And clad with blood And through the smoke I come to call Your tongue is red And speaks of thorns And through your spit I am reborn Your neck is hung With a wreath of skulls And through their mouths I sing your praise Your cunt is wet And hurts yourself And through your peak I die the death

Oh, bliss asserts above Here I sit alone And death lines these walls Her I sleep and dream (cry and scream) I am ash and stone I was, yet have now become And all I was is now undone A broken piece of a broken puzzle Dying embers string my skin A blade incised in my sense of true Adread I shall share my love, with you Oh, death dwells in love Here I sit alone And death lines these walls Her I sleep and dream (cry and scream) I am ash and stone And as horror begets horror So I received my father's sin And was made to dwell within his house And to drown in the love therein Oh, bliss asserts above Oh, death dwells in love So when all lovers turn to fighters And all my seed has gone to war Shall you see dark horizon And you too shall run wild forevermore

Cruel lover I lay me down again in your arms Undress me and possess me With your toungues of fire Withershins feeding from the child to the breast I plunge my knife in you At all hell's behest Cruel mother Dig your nails into my back Grant my furtive soul a place in your design Know me now as I place my ashes into your urn Of the flesh am I and to the flesh I shall return I am a shadow Moving with shadows I am blood and piss Coming in waves I am Isaiah's nightmare Brought into flesh now (and once again) I am the sword and the whip And the pleasure of slaves Cruel father I've climbed the ivory spire for you I've seen your blade-like arms Rake the stars from the sky Tearing through the kingdom Like so much kindling and straw Casting down all order into the gape of salvation's maw I am a shadow Moving with shadows I am blood and piss Coming in waves I am Isaiah's nightmare Brought into flesh now (and once again) I am the sword and the whip And the pleasure of slaves Come rending and tearing Speak to me in voracious lust Crush my will and awake the snake at my spine And when the whores of the night Proclaim your name I will know you then and there And I will go insane

She so loves her children More the one whom play with fire As the comfort themselves before As they my become her funeral brian She is the only one The only one She is the only one And she wears a crown of joyous madness Of dangering the midnight hours On her throne of serpentine sadness She erects a fractal tower She is the only one The only one She is the only one Who will ever understand you And she delight in your confusion And the contradiction of your heart She laughs As reason and delusion Proceed to tear your soul apart

I am nothing, I am no thing, I am not incessantly Not of the sun; nor the moon, nor of the stars... immeasurably Not without me, nor within me, nothing sees... inwardly I will not sleep, I will not wake, I will not rest... impatiently Oh Pralaya! Let the thousand suns disperse Free us, free us, free us from the chains of the universe Rouse our minds from sleep and raise our heads in scorn For when He walks we rise and we shall sleep no more With all my heart I curse you whom I love so much Your emphatic malediction, how I hunger for its touch I bow down at your altar, the wasteland of my soul For I shall abound in pleasure and I shall hide my goal Out of the many comes the One To lay waste the all and return to the None I call your name: Devil of a thousand faces Burning point! Oh endless disjoint Great and pristine provider Of nothingness and death Oh how the wolves are now howling They plead for rape and grim demise And becoming them I left my body In the night's blood-haunted eyes Only a coward stands in sunlight On the shores of God's forbidden streams So spread your wings, oh Samael And darken this beggar's dream And make him slither through the river As the snake did through the tree He prepared a gate for all of us And we await the final key Blessed be! From the branches of Death's tree The fruit is finally falling down And the Harvester is free Oh Pralaya! Let the thousand suns disperse Free us, free us, free us from the chains of the universe And no more progression and no more duration Now make the clock to break and the heavens cry for time ...nothingness and death!

When all is waning Call out of time Unearth the clay That makes man a beast Ride the Inferno Taking all risks at once Forget all else, know nothing Hammer into the ground The fire burning Takes it all away The fire burning Takes it all away Race out of line To make it up Stakes out of time When it is called for The master cometh As if never before The key is our vice To the other we demand

Oh joy Oh rapture Oh decline of space and time To find love in the shimmer of blood on stone To find passion in a maze of sun bleached bones Look me in the face Who of us is more confused? Look me in the face And tell me you don't need being used It all begins with one descent One downfall, one great lament It cures its heart, but leaves the parts All stream across the blood-red sand If I lead, will you follow Across the heavens and against the tide? If I lead, will you follow To rip the truth from the lies?

For you I will make a world devoid of love And I'll make your love to fill the void One eye sees glory, the other does cry, the Third sees Truth and grows blind For I am alike unto whited graves As I appear, beautiful in skin But within I am filled with dead man's bones And of all Unclean and Sin Move to me in wild contortions Enchant me with blight and sore Yes, move to me you fucking Whore Into the madness of Serpents

Up and up Climbing the stair of dream Over the Silverstar's Horizon And across The golden Streams Further up! Beyond the Circle of Samsara And the horror of Nirvana Where eleven Tongues scream Word of words: "I am that I am" Crushed under His weight These rats will be free Son of earth Daughter of fire Snake for snake Desire for desire Death Oh, holy death, enforce us now On these fields of dreams Let us be your plough Rise and rise! Across the star plunge skies Breach the gate of lies And see the lighthouse of damnation Almost strident rise! Above the letters of the name And the 7 pillars of shame To the death of creation Dance and die "The killer is a keeper So dance with Shmashana Yes, dance and die!" Dreams of fevers Dance of death Low for high The truth for a lie Death Oh, holy death Enforce us now On these fields of dreams Let us be your plough Wild and terrible howler Earth and sky devourer Cast down the sitting king And break his power
