Sarcophony 09:16
Fog framed garden, seeds ungrowing Long claimed land owned by unknowing fading tributes to countless moments of countless instants of existence reflect the light off lifeless moon from the mirror of midnight dew Marble angels serve to mock the dead below with the stone tears they drop Monuments to irrelevance, built for conceit and molded in greed Mark subterraneal decomposition of dying cells which can't know their fate Night speaks to itself, shadows share black secrets Nocturna shall reign in whispers until dawns act of treason Oh post mortem narcissism, oh, no afterlife, no pride The misguided symbol of disturbed earth, the naivety that the dead have worth, fading dying tributes wilt on the names of fresh turned dirt and ancient graves, guilt for the blood in our veins Why not accept that reality ends with your life? A carved likeness still makes us nothing more than our own measurement of time The lapse of your plot To be defined by where..You rot Oh, Sarcophony unending echo-less screams Oh, Sarcophony, a tribute to the void Percussion of the leaves, Oh, Sarcophony Decomposition, Lamentation,Orchestration Apparitions Fog framed garden seeds ungrowing long claimed land owned by unknowing fading tributes to countless instants Release their sorrow upon the night's wind Unseen forces grant awareness to the essence of past tense this Mass awakening makes hours of seconds The world erupts back in to silence Monuments to irrelevance, built for conceit and molded in greed Mark subterraneal decomposition of dying cells which now know their fate Oh post mortem narcissism, oh, no afterlife, no pride The misguided symbol of disturbed earth the naivety that the dead have worth fading dying tributes wilt on the names of fresh turned dirt and ancient graves, guilt for the blood in our veins Why not accept that reality ends with your life? A carved likeness still makes us nothing more than our own measurement of time The lapse of your plot To be defined by where.. You... Rot! Clinging to your social status with the grip of rigor mortis Physical eulogy Oh, Sarcophony, unending echo-less screams, Sarcophony, a tribute to the void Chorus for the trees, Sarcophony! Clinging to your social status with the grip of rigor mortis Have your second final say Oh, Sarcophony, unending echoless screams, Sarcophony, a tribute to the void Chorus for the trees, Sarcophony

Content to be mindless spineless pawns Peace at what cost? Fires of honor lost Caught in the jaws of this sudden strange holocaust Eye of the swarm descends upon a helpless planet All the life forms shall be reminded of terror Eye of the swarm staring down on utopia Taking the form of our fatal game ender Exoskeletal Armageddon The erosion Of ascendancy Exoskeletal Armageddon The Extinction Of humanity Hive mind invasion cliche Scattered and afraid we pray While waves of invertebrae Infest the shelter that we've made Synchronized movements of murder Numbers unyielding envelop The sea, the skies, the cities we genuflect While we were on our knees we exposed our necks To the.... Eye of the swarm descends upon a peaceful planet All its life forms will be reminded of terror Eye of the swarm staring down on utopia Taking the form of our fatal game ender To find the needle and cease the attack We find a way to simply burn down the stack We seek redemption from eras of death Annihilation of a genocide pest

Outpacing your breath as it hangs behind you Crystalline shards of desperation Trees void of leaves bestow upon thee The thick crawling river of nocturnal mist Sweat flows with tears as they are freezing Molding the mask of a man soon to pass Trailing in blackness; approaching death Instinctual perfection worships the hunt! Outrun by Wolves, Fed to the forest Outrun by wolves, Your flesh shall feed the pack as you lie to yourself about the potential for escape with feral precision they fall upon you as you fall upon their fangs In the realm of the hunter wits alone just prolong the grave They howl their thanks to the one who brings them their prey Oh, you came to me, Seeking packaged glory I promised you an honorable kill Provider of which I leave to nature's will You seek merit in a cage With dignity defined by a wage Employing an ambassador To bring you a corpse unjustly earned I am a child to this wood An empath within a noble brotherhood As your heart beat stops In the full moon rays You fulfill a pact Forgot by the human race As the brush runs red In your ivy grave Innamorato della Luna My pack is sustained You can stand or Run from the place where I left you Alone with a knife and your will to survive Conditioned to feeding after my absence They make themselves known with luminous eyes Waiting for me to offer their next meal Lets put to the test your value of life Receiving end of a partisan crusade Feel your flesh crawl as its stripped from the bone The feeling that warps those in this world That through our actions we can become eternal A lust for legacy has caused us to lose sight Of whats a triumph and what is fallacy The growing concept that life is dog eat dog Will force the foolish to idolize the corrupt Dwelling with their bias to feel at home I remain in the mist With the Wolves

Pathetic violent need for approval Delusions of grandeur and distinction If you base a claim on hatred If you flaunt your ill gotten gains If you boast rights are one sided If you bow to the parasitic minded, oh You seek to take what can't be owned Go fuck yourself and die If you want to get fucked so bad Go fuck yourself and die Go fuck yourself and die! Callous opportunist who's conniving Gaining strength through ego Frothing at the mouth for your next meal Feeding on the odious Encroaching on the space of the enlightened With your invasive language Grasping at the skirt of lady justice Blaming her promiscuousness Accumulation of chagrined self esteem Has created something sinister Taking from the pure giving to thine self Avoiding true confrontation The sin of change undone A time when false wars are won by propaganda! You're the Judas to true victims Blame has become the kiss which you used to damn us Painting yourself as the martyr You're the starter of a fucking exodus Chaining women Hypnotizing kids Building structures On the backs of weak broken men

Arborequiem 09:18
Moss laden ground worships at the feet of a monolithic tapestry woven in sorrow The approaching sound of undeserving eyes is muffled underfoot by dwindling lives Invasive speculation looks through the scenery Promise of progress warps all greenery A vines spiraled grace wilts in this reality Boots mold the land to its concrete finality Gaia lets her voice break in surreal dismay As we drain her essence she shatters our tranquility Fruits bear the culprits and proclaim them guilty Ancient and knowing but hidden in paradise The accuser of her abusers, The punishment and the trial The last realm of serenity , Has forsaken it's own still Branches dance without the wind Blame is laid without knowledge of sin Mournful faces leak their cries Black pits of pitch leak a Charade of eyes Hope for us is obsolete We lost mother's scent now we're banned from the teat Gag on rancid apologies, We're the guilty Collectively we turn away, Assembly line blind eyes We turn from earth towards the skies And fill them with ashes, Darkness consumes our minds In it's shadow we can hide, Quickly spreads this tormented choir We turn to our great silencer; Fire! Let these bridges burn, We've reaped what we've earned! The black cloud ascending, The score of these spores crescendoing The gavel of judgement will silence us with its thunder We've heard this all before But not from the source We can dam this river, but she can change its course! Heard this all before, but not from the source. We can damn this river, but she can change its course. We created our demise with our own shame We're our pyre and the flame. Fallen faces decay in to the seeds of sunken skulls Saplings sprout through sockets The world succumbs to its new host Choking off society, Visages of mockery Outposts of humanity, Overgrown! The weapons of lush dystopia A whet stone and a blade Our last stand against a hydra of thorns; our scorned creator wielding hate Roaring through the masses we choke on the fumes She offered us efficient deaths we loudly refuse Sawing all at arms length we are overcome We're fueled by misplaced vengeance, they're fueled by the sun! Claustrophobic reclamation Smothered by nature Our grip grows colder Smothered by nature The black cloud ascending the score of these spores crescendoing The gavel of judgement will silence us with its thunder! The earth has her legends and she has her myths But above all else She has secrets, Woe All shall fall Chainsaw orchestra Arbor Requiem Our own fault Chainsaw minuet Arbor Requiem The last straw Chainsaw Aria Arbor Requiem Chainsaw orchestra

Here we go! Whispers echo softly in the hallways of my mind The only words Ive ever heard to fill me with desire Oh if I could manifest these thoughts as something I can touch Sadomasochistic tendencies intertwine with lust! To create poetry, and awake lost feelings put a face to instincts, oh the twisted things we do for love Stains on leather gloves, drowning of a dove, torment is my drug I Cross the thin line between steel and bone to look in to your eyes when I am alone Forced to contort, heels touching throat Finding release to the rhythm of your death throes Pathetic and powerless I welcome you to the abyss no anesthetic Dissection the victims of my affection show their scars Definition of depraved I sacrifice humanity in the name of desolation the answer to my salvation lies in your flesh Your flesh crawls as faint footsteps follow you in the night A tortured sirens song a heart rate lullaby as you gag on my blade to fill the void of my soul two lives become one, I become whole Transcendence beyond the living Possession, consummation, The fruits of covetousness Oh a fruit so sweet as blood, Stains on leather gloves drowning of a dove, torment is my drug I Cross the thin line between steel and bone to look in to your eyes when I am alone Forced to contort, heels touching throat Finding release to the rhythm of your death Pathetic and powerless I welcome you to the abyss no anesthetic dissection the victims of my affection show their scars Definition of depraved I sacrifice humanity in the name of desolation the answer to my salvation lies in your flesh Necromantic, Neuronslaught Frayed semantic, star-cross'd rot Pathetic and powerless I welcome you to the abyss no anesthetic dissection victims of my affection show their scars Definition of depraved I sacrifice humanity in the name of desolation the answer to my salvation lies in your flesh, Oh! Necromantic neuronslaught, Frayed semantics star-crossed rot

Cells 07:30
We crawl along the sands of time our thoughts are thirst our minds unwind The mirage of a purpose in life has made us age like formaldehyde not wine The elemental ward open for business accepting clients the only cost is complete compliance to the unwritten to the unsaid to whatever biased beliefs will suit your fears best Cage of morality and to hide our mental fragility we confine our screams to cells and dreams and despite our incessant insanity we confine our thoughts to the cage of morality and to hide our mental fragility we confine our screams to cells and dreams Cells, Dreams and everything in between questioning the stitching in reality's perfect seams Our ambition reminiscent of the distant stars long dead illusions which we view from afar impartial as particles webbed across the whole How can we care? Can you find the drop of blood in the lake? Does the shore exist for a grain of sand's sake? An onyx desert sprawls across The arid plains of hope long lost the fossil of an hourglass that toppled brought a wake of guile our thoughts are thirst our minds unwind The mirage of a purpose in life has made us age like formaldehyde not wine The elemental ward open for business accepting clients the only cost is complete compliance to the unwritten to the unsaid to whatever biased beliefs will suit your fears best Cage of morality to hide our mental fragility we confine our screams to cells and dreams and despite our incessant insanity we confine our thoughts to the cage of morality and to hide our mental fragility we confine our screams to cells and dreams Cells, Dreams and everything in between questioning the stitching in reality's perfect seams Our ambition reminiscent of the distant stars long dead illusions which we view from afar Self preservation means nothing anymore we fear the mirror we fear the truth we don't fear death we don't fear war Impartial as particles webbed across the whole phasing through each other in a blurred kaleidoscope of Cells and Dreams!

Caught in the cogs of their system Feeding my life to algorithms Calculating my output To put in to figures numerical value of my worth The true work of the motions made from programs Moves the whole world, I find myself paid to watch them Replacing a base need for humanity A surgeon for the new world they are taking Wires and veins to me are the same A screwdriver scalpel a microchip brain My followers say their prayers with their product My followers raise their praise with hydraulics Time divides my life from reason The new breed of life form is risen The factory where I found my rebirth The new form of life form has risen, oh! I feed myself to the machine in an act of accidental apathy I brace for the instant I'm gone But the pain starts and lasts far too long Adding to the misery the behemoth overheats Cauterized forbade to die I feel all of it I plead with the gears for the release of unconsciousness Knotting all my tendons as my essences are rendered from the tangible Dripping my marrow heralded by the unfeeling butcher Torrn Apart by Machinery, It takes all but my life Flesh sears as it liquefies, Torrn Apart by Machinery Singeing eyes yet I see what this monstrosity made me Baking me in what should be my life's blood Insanity out of reach I just scream ask this machine to release me from my misery Contusion, Metal orgy, Distorts me, No end Pressure, Prolapse, Fingerless hands, Bone fragments Kept alive by machines I am consumed by pain Kept alive by machines I am consumed by hate Part of the scenery My pride has been raped An accessory to the clinical scenery A relic kept alive by Machinery

Blackened blur of eternity leaving our motions still The spark of progress to spare lives began at the first kill A relay on two treadmills kills time as it erodes Development through destruction Smother fire with hot coals How have we learned? If not by our mistakes? What have we earned? Faster ways to decay Manufactured instinct of mass preservation cowers to the power of survival Hope has bred naught but resentment Pain has shaped our world The Plague of Empires Mirrors what it inspires Exponential fires The Plague of Empires So we contend with our fears By realizing more nightmares Etched in the scars of the past The scripture of our extinction With each new show of force Drastic acts become the standard How can we hope to proceed When each step is taken backwards Woe Woe Woe
