Void Dwellers 05:25
lyrics

Visions forming before these weary eyes Reality is now a fading axiom of life Paralysis claims me A flame for the flies Parasites feasting On our miserable lives Endless ocean swallow all I know Shadow twisting 'round my frozen bones Tear away the veil Witness dreary reveries Plummet down the well Dream wicked memories Stare into the eyes Weaving horrid fallacies Stare into the night... I am the sun that implodes into the black The Maelstrom to encompass all I am the unspoken end That devours with no name A grand callous stone wheel The Great Grinder of Man In the void of lies the fiends do mesmerize In the void of lies the fiends do hypnotize Stare into the eyes Utter abstract lullabies Stare into the night... I'm walking, walking belts of cosmic stone Ingesting, ingesting wines of a cosmic sea Fallacious wraiths prowl voracious To show me lies they do mesmerize my eyes Dream mortal dream Dream mortal dream Dream....

Horror in the Sand 04:24
lyrics

Arise... Behold the arid waste before the eyes Nothings here.. Nothings there.. What is this? Where am I? Is this real? It's a lie? No vultures circle inside burning light I beg.. I beg for the night.. What am I? Who am I? This is real. Whats a lie? Infinite nothing No notion of time Hellish djinn wailing Bring forward the night I am the master of the sand Hold sway to the mind It bends at my command Spy a serpent Slithering swiftly Charm in its eyes Beguiled it approaches Spy a serpant.. Helix crafter Charm in its eyes. 'Round the arm and up the spine Whisper your secrets Endow me with knowledge Open my eyes Feed me the locusts Summon your servants Show me my hell Rise Rise charnel city rise Rise Somber undead a'low Rise Rise charnel city rise Rise...rise... Farewell to the sun Horror has begun...

lyrics

A price is my skeleton To those who design your graves Shambling portraitists Speakers to a foul deceiving worm They celebrate the dead And toast to their deaths, lay them rest A Harvest Moon shall rise The damned dancing Waltzing manic Twisted by spires Digging frantic Here a stench reeks to skies Wraiths feast souls Horror untold Flies swarm my skeleton A worthless corpse Petrified enslaved Rotten, enshrined by ghouls Ghosts harbor the dead Entombed them in death Lay them to rest Bones the worms will infest I felt this nether rip out my essence Leaving but a lifeless corpse Helplessly grasping I saw my soul siphoned and spiral to the void Necropolis we'll all serve Our bodies it preserves Necropolis we'll all serve A torture we deserve

Fiddlers Green 04:34
lyrics

Beyond a land with lakes of fire Where stars shine bright with ire Rests a thicket, entangled in vice and decay Enter unhallowed woodlands and become a zombified slave Malicious spirits luring all those who're near Vines long to hoist you into the trees Engorging their lust for that which you bleed Drifting through the mists you'll hear the crier A sirens song entices all deep into the mire So sweetly she serenades So swiftly she sings us away..sings us away... Malicious spirits luring, all those who hear Malicious spirits luring, all those who're near Wines of lost flow endless from the leaves Assuring those never to be free.. Drifting through the mists you'll hear the crier A sirens song entices all deep into the mire Deperditur noctem aeternam Sino diabolous meos dirige Ego sum actias Epse est meus flamma Canta mihi So sweetly she serenades So swiftly she sings us away..sings us away.. Malicious spirits luring all those who hear Malicious spirits luring all those who're near Cries of the lost ring Eyes of the damned scream Dream... Dream of salvation...you'll never behold.. Bound to eternal darkness the night takes my eyes.. The night takes my eyes Rotten faces embedded in bark Forlorn whimpers Cries howling in the dark They scream in vain Suspended forever in agonized terror Cries howling in the dark They scream in vain!

This horror, this madness The enslavement of hell Led astray in the shadow Now ensnared in her spell What doth this mistress foreshadow O'what doth she foretell Lamb you're worthless to god Claiming your loved ones Grinning, while leaving you none Cursed, dejected to exile with the night still young. While the night was still young Hack of my hands and hobble those feet I'm soulless. I'm worthless just a mass of meat Allow me inside and your dreams are your prize Allow me inside, let me see through those eyes. Allow me inside let me wear your disguise. Allow me inside so I may swarm as if flies Hack of my hands and hobble those feet I'm soulless, I'm worthless, just a mass of meat I hold this worthless mortals tongue in my hand Sanction his soul Walk as if a man... Baptized beneath Belial I'm the shade forged from denial My rebirth, Impious Revival Crave out my eyes on this vilest nights Offer my tongue to the blackest of blights I'm soulless. I'm worthless. I'm just a mass of meat Praise The Devil Creatures of The Fade Praise The Devil A formless rotted shade

Soul Harvest 04:47
lyrics

Here is my end Dream mortal dream Torture begins Dream mortal dream Nefarious grins Dream mortal dream Bring forth the end My vestige rotting in a realm with no time Gelastic seizures let me unwind Thousands of eons crawl endless and blind I believe I'll claim this as mine Below me lies the fabled fetid garden of grime Eidolon sentinels souls they grind Myself and gloom immortally entwined Tormented visions burned into my mind! Falling through a sea of fire Eager hands reach with desire Madly I have spiraled downward Seized in false light and entrancing eyes Writhing wistful shrieking out To nonexistence Shell out a twin coined toll Let me be on my way I hear the fel reaper as he's calling out my name Ferried across the lake Perdition awaits Ushered to the gates Ferried across the lake Perdition awaits Ushered to the gates So tell all your poets Your preachers Your sinners Your saints The bottomfeeders too! We will pay the devil what is due Not a mother be spared nor a child be saved Your lives devoured by His Majesty, depraved One day a darkness will come to claim us all Brooding. Festering. Decaying. Penumbra of the soul A beast rises to drag me down a'low Penumbra of the soul I can hear the countless souls wailing underneath Feed me weeping to The Great Gnashing Teeth.
