Ascension

Serpent on the cross

Ravaged condition,
The blood and tragedy
All God’s creations
All willing on the streets you flood

With countless opposition
Regale as others count the cost
Prevail in deprivation
Deluded righteous will fall
Before uncertainty of loss

Unholy resurgence
On the first chime, it’s the last time
Your lonely soul will rot

Such indecision
A sudden travesty
Defiant natured
Unforgiving are the weeping ones

The lavished inquisition
In vain, another fight was lost
With furious revelation

Behold the righteous will fall
Before the serpent on the cross

Unholy resurgence
On the first chime, it’s the last time
Your lonely soul will rot

Born the first in line
The good die as the bad die
Forged a lasting shrine
The good die, never denied

Such certainty of loss
With the Serpent on the cross
The first chime is the last time
Your holy soul will rot

The first chime as we all die

Tyrants serenade

Another winter again
Forlorn as memories torment
Hollow they seem, another daydream
But then, a silent lament

So alone
Feel so cold alone
Never let it show, never let it known
Feeling so alone

Revealed the God of malevolence
Through years, our destinies separate
The slow pain as the liar celebrates

No more does sickness relent
As growing weakness prevents
Laughter, glances of second chances, but then
A darkness descends

Revealed the God of malevolence
Through years, our destinies separate
The slow pain as the liar celebrates…
The tyrants serenade

Weary nights I wish and wonder I’m dreaming, not tonight
Never dream at night
On dreary nights, I drift and wander, I’m screaming out to die

Revealed the God of malevolence
Through years, our destinies separate
The slow pain as the liar celebrates

Salvation

Capricious ones seek affirmation
Divested to conform

Repent through incantations

A funeral for the frail
Bares deep affection
Conception for the soul
Enrol in God’s intention

So, behold on this promised day
Through confession, the presence stays
To remain in a monumental cage

Those spurious thoughts of apprehension
Requested to conform
Indulge in mass deception

Obscuring, others fail with deep reflection
Deception for the soul
Rebirth through God’s ascension

So, behold on this solemn day
Through confession, the presence stays
To remain in this solitary age

Memory’s garden, almighty vengeance
Lamenting long embrace, seek consolation

Ravaged darkness, a light transcends us
A wretched dog afraid seeks God’s Salvation

For the founding endeavour
Fortune favours villains innate
For the crown needs a bearer
More than willing, screaming enraged

Undead the son, nightmares eternal prevail

Righteous, indignant, the storm unfolds
Before the mourning dies, he’ll process your weary soul

Memory’s garden, almighty vengeance
Lamenting long embrace through condemnation

Ambition tarnished, a light transcends us
A wretched dog afraid seeks God’s Salvation

Silence like the grave

The thrall invade in the dead of night
The dark machine is what you need to fear

Beyond the veil of the barren skies
Controlling weakness,
As growing bleakness tests you

With silence like the grave, A fury will prevail
Preach to all like a prophet from long-dead tales

The tortured face in a damaged life
A thought serene is what you dream to fear

Of all the lowliest parasites
Devouring freedom, then cowering with no virtue

A silence like the grave
A cruelty will prevail
Preach to all from the top of the world, then fail

The look from weary eyes
The horrors of disease
Leaving all of humanity on its knees

A silence like the grave
A fury will prevail
Preach to all like a prophet from long-dead tales

The look from weary eyes
A longing for relief
Leaving all of humanity on its knees

Lay a wreath upon the world

Hallowed man won’t heed the warning
As Hell ascends to greet the earth
Shadowed lands in deep and dawning
Our descent will be the birth

Here I lie, am I justified
Lay a wreath upon me, lay a wreath upon The World

The rejected free from glory
The unintended grieve in dust

Here I lie, all I’ve sacrificed
Lay a wreath upon me, lay a Wreath upon The World

Here I lie, am I victimised
Lay a wreath upon me, lay your grief upon The World

Diluvium

Face to the sun
No time to turn and run
Prey to the sea
The waves so violent gleam

Nothing in this world could dream
Such a serenade would set us free

Plague from the tides
Desolations rising high
Drifting debris
In depths, your fortunes cease

No one in this world perceived
Death with devastating majesty

Raging unholy waters take me
A promised enemy
Bracing unholy waters cleanse me
An honest agony

As sickness comes for me
Understand this dire fate
Just time we’ve got to face, until we fade

As nature comes for me
Understanding higher state
The hours we’re going to face, until that day

Raging unholy waters take me
A promised enemy
Bracing unholy waters cleanse me
An honest agony

Nature comes for me
Nature comforts me

Savage days

Whispers in hallways, in crowded streets
The voices always, in sympathy
You’ve walked a long way from sudden grief
Enduring long days that never cease

Savage days caress my dreams away
Will only time release me?
Savage days suppress my inner pain
For all those lying beneath me
I won’t see them again

The sprawling walkways of sanctity
A weary warning of instability
With every heartbeat and lifeless need
Defeat prolonging, you can’t release, you cannot breathe

Always the same mistakes, with years to face
Only the flame forsakes and feeds the shame

Savage days caress my tears away
But you can’t defeat me
Savage days suppress my inner rage
For all those lying beneath me
I won’t see them again

Sirens

Devastation from one extreme
Revival of yesterday’s fight
Aggravation from the ones we adhere
I’m tirelessly waiting to die

Halls of Madness
You cannot see what your dreams reveal
Thrall of Sadness
You cannot see as the vision prepares you to die

All creation is assumed, endeared
Though centuries certain divides
Condemnation for a truth so clear
No desire compels me to thrive

Halls of Madness
You cannot see what your dreams reveal
Thrall of Sadness
You cannot see, preconditions prepare you to die

Sirens from a better day
We’re diverting time
A diminished mind seems so tranquilised

No more Sirens from those better days
We’ve transferred our lives, as our finished minds
Fail to recognise
As we fade from the world, safe from the world

Regret will enslave

Meaning for the holy
Freedom for us slowly

They’ll deprive us all
Don’t resist, must resist
They’ll survive us all
Don’t resist must resist

Sirens from a better day
We’re diverting time
A diminished mind seems so tranquilised

No more Sirens from those better days
We’ve transferred our lives, as our lonely eyes
Fail to recognise
As we fade from the world

Deceivers

The make believers
We trusted to redeem us
Underachievers
Demoralise, harvest the lies

Today redeemed
Tomorrow scream believe
With thoughts so dire
We’re in denial, at ease

Awake a dark intention, a storm of thorns
The stealth of mass deception will welcome all

Forlorn years of deadly deeds

With theory to sustain us
As domination breaks us
The withering enslavers
Harbouring doubt, they’ll break you down

This deathly greed
Has planted seeds of dreams
With thoughts expired
The ending hours of need

Awaken pandemonium the swarm endorse
The source of mass deception hangs on our thoughts

Forlorn years of deadly deeds

Divine have wept before me
Desire of death reforms me

The precipice

I ascend as apostles who died
With the hurt as a spear in my side
But this world offers nothing for free

As I look in the treacherous eyes
Death is certain as seasons divide
And this world offers nothing for me

For every soul through God or prayer
Divine speech the solace of despair
As life greets this velvet symphony

Hard to fake belief, senseless harmony
Hard to fail at grief, deaths upon us, friends will always bleed

Some shall fall as others create
Some shall crawl with resenting hate

Destroyed, unknown in death
Reaching the spire when others tried and failed
No one can live without prevail

This voids uncertain depths
Reaching up higher without a shred of doubt
We must outlive, the many lost in the shroud

Some shall fall as others create
Some shall crawl with relentless hate

Despairing and worn
Ruthless and scorned
Pale and forlorn, as we stumble and fall
Replenish the force within us
Find a way, mark a way, burn away

This stark town

Beyond the weak and dour streets
No solace in the breeze
Its sprawling wings devour me

New dawn greets death’s disease

The war within, the suffering
The solemn, endless pleas

The walls are tombs empowering
The dying endless need

Live in sheer decline, aspirations are not foreseen

This stark town bears suffering unbound
The valleys are damned beneath the shroud
In this stark town, there’s madness profound
Punish for grand belief, this life we all denounce

Cannot run where you want to be
With a gilded hand too far to see
You harbour empathy,
The sweetest smile in tragedy
Always will you conceal the tears

This stark town, there’s suffering unbound
Valleys once grand, beneath the shroud
In this stark town, there’s sadness profound
Punish the damned in need. This life, we all denounce

A life unknown

Saddened situations from the past
Ever-growing changing needs
That could never last

On the days that I might fear
All-consuming insincere
I silently collapse

Can we purge the light we’ve known
For this sacrifice we couldn’t make
But we thirst for life unknown

As the world before me burns
I have nowhere left to turn
Throughout all the centuries of hate

Moments of autonomy repressed
Bleeding through uncertainty
All sanity has left

And we purge the light we’ve known
For this sacrifice we couldn’t make
But we thirst for life unknown

In a dream of hopeless cheer
Withered, beauty disappears
Throughout all the memories remain

For this sacrifice we couldn’t make
We’ll agonise alone

The sweet fade from night to dawn
In these damaged times that dominate
We’ll thirst for life alone

We crave a life, crave a life unknown
