Inanition

Reach into the open void and I'll be there, Across the endless spectral fields, I'll always be, Feel the vastness of cosmos from within, The everpresent force that you can not comprehend. Solar winds that blow, I am, Tectonic movements, that rock the earth, I am, Molten cores and crushing colds I am, The everpresent force that you can not comprehend. Resonates in your mind the voice of the centuries, Whispering, and you know your life is not yours to hold. Powerful, beautiful, howling gaze of the stars above, Whispering, and you know, your life is wholly mine to own. Gather all around, build the biggest pyre, Celebrate the one eternal, Come and join the circle, ritual of worship, Leave behind, the one you thought to be yourself, Rise above the clouds, into night eternal, Feel the cold embrace of the lightless vacuum, Join the featureless whole and in losing yourself, Become more. Reach into the open void and I'll be there, Across the endless spectral fields, I'll always be, Feel the vastness of cosmos from within, The everpresent force that you can not comprehend. Solar winds that blow, I am, Tectonic movements, that rock the earth, I am, Molten cores and crushing colds, I am, The everpresent force that you can not comprehend. Resonates in your mind the voice of the centuries, Whispering, and you know your life is not yours to hold. Powerful, beautiful, howling gaze of the stars above, Whispering, and you know, your life is wholly mine to own. Resonates, in your soul the voice of the centuries, Whispering, and you know, your life is not yours to hold. Powerful, beautiful, howling gaze of the stars above, Whispering and you know I'm always there I am the … Everpresent.

I walk on an endless shore, And I leave my footprints in the sand, As a sign that I was here. Why do you keep on washing away my steps? Without them I have no past and no future, I'm just a point, I feel like just falling so that you can drown me, Drown me, take me away into depths of unexistence. Life was never about fair chances, All I have is this shore and the ocean. Why do you insist on erasing my history, For what then did I exist? Disturbance builds up inside of me, I feel like being pierced from the inside out, A thousand knives are doing their job meticulously, There's no way out, I will never scale this tower. Disturbance builds up inside of me, I feel like being pierced from the inside out, A thousand knives are doing their job meticulously, There's no way out, I will never scale this tower. Tortured endlessly by this insane drive, I must leave my mark on the tides of time, No matter how I try, there's no way of scratching it, But I still try again and again and again and again. Tortured endlessly by this insane drive, I must leave my mark on the tides of time, No matter how I try, there's no way of scratching it, But I still try again, until my final step. Kulning. (Spoken): There is no me, ‘I’ bears no more meaning There is only the shore and the ocean...

It seems that I have been crawling for eternity, Trying to find my way out of these woods, Every step is ever so tolling, But never it seems to bear any fruit, Again, again this bog, I slug through it without any respite, Abrasion upon abrasion, bruise upon bruise, My confines are not of the hospitable kind, Why do I keep on choosing the wrong path? Can't see the stars, can't see the stars, I am lost, no light to shine on my path, Can't escape these frightening woods, No more hope for me, but still I move. Can't see the stars, can't see the stars, I am lost, no light to shine on my path, Can't escape these frightening woods, No more hope for me, but still I move. Circling and circling, this maze keeps me going, Through its dark, twisted forms of undoing. Can't think about the future, the past doesn't hold my mind, All I can think of is one more step. Can't think about the future, the past doesn't hold my mind, All I can think of is one more step. Can't see the stars, can't see the stars, I am lost, no light to shine on my path, Can't escape these frightening woods, No more hope for me, but still I move. Can't see the stars, can't see the stars, I am lost, no light to shine on my path, Can't escape these frightening woods, No more hope for me, but still I move. Is this all that is left for me, Seems I'll have to walk eternally. Is there someone to make me free, Please salvate me from obscurity. Is this all that is left for me, Seems I'll have to walk eternally. Is there someone to make me free, Please salvate me from obscurity. No more steps! I, I can't go on, I won't go on, Looks like this is the final place. Fear, no longer holds, I just accept, This is the way that I'll escape. This is the way that I'll escape, This is the way that I'll escape!

In the depths of inanition, I find my weary soul, A mere echo of existence, a fraction of the whole. Barely breathing, I cling to one more day to live, A constant battle, lacking strength to let go. This maze, a labyrinth, that holds me tight, I yearn for liberation, to escape its spite. Why did I strive, with such fervent pace, Only to slow down, caught in this endless chase? Lost amidst debris, entangled in addiction's snare, Devoted to a struggle that's left me threadbare. This Egregore, a phantom that shattered my will, Leaving behind a history of pain, hard to distill. Yet, I cleanse it all, washing away the stains, With a fragile veil of hope, where resilience remains. No words can suffice, for the depths of my despair, Just my voice, mourning in silence, a mournful air. No more notes to play, the melody has ceased, Within my chest, a void, an echoing feast. Without hope, without will, I wander still, through these barren fields. But in this desolation, a seed of strength takes root, No longer trapped in inanition's cruel decree, In this barren expanse, I'll find my way, For within the void, a glimmer of hope will sway.

Dead all is dead, Can't bear to look, Dead all is dead, Shredded memories. Desert plane, all the same, I remain, bearing pain. Lost in sands and misery, I keep tracking endlessly, Nothing growing, dead are winds, Only ruins that I see. I remember how it'd been, Flowing rivers, sprawling green Life was blooming everywhere Haunting visions let me be. Why am I bound to this accursed place, What is this irony that I'm missing on? Never to leave, always return to the same place, An endless cycle of misery. Leave? Where would you leave? Escape? Why would you? This pain exists because of you, You exist for this pain. Endless dunes, like the friction, Ridges of your hand, Tales of nothing it's all worthless. All is gone, and I am all that, Is alive In this cursed, spirit desert. Endless dunes, like the friction, Ridges of your hand, Tales of nothing, it's all for nothing. Why am I bound to this accursed place, What is this irony that I'm missing on? Never to leave, always return to the same place, An endless cycle of misery. Please send down a perfect storm, So that this world could be reborn, I plead for a final release, From this agony of monotoness. Please send down a perfect storm, So that this world could be reborn, I plead for a final release, From this agony of monotoness. Bring me the final release.

I carve my symbols into stones, And the world around takes its form. I fill the rivers with my blood, So that life can live within them. Branches rise and form crowns, Walk amongst them and admire. Everything was set with a purpose, Every symbol has its divine meaning. Come observe them, Bow before them, Join the order, Timeless order. Don't you dare to perverse my words, Don't you dare to twist my symbols, You shall not be forgiven. Sacred plan was set in place, The oath once given shall never break, You shall not be forgiven. Don't you dare to perverse my words, Don't you dare to twist my symbols, You shall not be forgiven. Sacred plan was set in place, The oath once given shall never break, You shall not be forgiven. Come observe them, Bow before them, Join the order, Timeless order. Don't you dare to perverse my words, Don't you dare to twist my symbols, You shall not be forgiven. Sacred plan was set in place, The oath once given shall never break, You shall not be forgiven. Don't you dare to perverse my words, Don't you dare to twist my symbols, You shall not be forgiven. Sacred plan was set in place, The oath once given shall never break, You shall not be forgiven. Never to be forgiven, Never to be… Forgiven!

What remains of us, I wonder, When the body lies in the grave, What was that, a moment spark, Life is so short and it's too late. So when the body is gone, and the spirit flew away, What we did and the memories, Is all that remains of us in this world, I'll live on in memories, so do remember me. Nothing left to say, There is nothing left to feel, I am only an empty shell, Forgive my weakness. Nothing left to say, There is nothing left to feel, I am only an empty shell, Forgive me for waiting so long. My spirit will speak through this music, All these notes and sounds are all I am leaving you. This is everything that remains of us, This is all that remains of me. This is everything that remains of us, This is all that remains of me. Will you remember me when the grass is growing? Will you remember me when the leaves are falling? Will you remember me when the seasons are changing? Will you remember me when I am gone? Will you remember me when the grass is growing? Will you remember me when the leaves are falling? Will you remember me when the seasons are changing? Will you remember me when I am long gone?
