Scarve - Irradiant lyrics



Tracks



01. Mirthless Perspectives

Music by Scarve
Now that the bleeding is even
The ineluctable settles inside
To remain inert forever
Somewhere something has died

Capture echoes of the end
In uncommon lucid moments
Strain our eyes staring
Where there's nothing to be seen

Mirthless perspectives
Perpetual imbalance
Kill-conceived instinct
A spiritless battle
Doomed to be lost

Running fast and fearless
Hooked onto our empty shells
A profound sensorial burn-out
Switched off all remaining reason

Blinded numb with shock
Somewhere something has died
Simply heading towards the day
When our suffering will subside

02. An Emptier Void

Music by Scarve
Unrelayed, bite right through
Curse the weight that strains your mind
Stationary, facing nothing
It devours you from inside
Short-lived passion, now inflamed
Realize you've spilt the essence
Boiling over, flesh melts fast
Liberate the key to vengeance

I'm not the one to steer this
My duties are fulfilled
Take the strain and struggle
The endless downhill

From a reasonable distance
All seems strangely quiet
Take just one step closer
And be entangled in my spite
Jackhammer comes crushing
Pounds to pulp with no relief
Bite the dust and chew it well
Suffering's all I can give

I'm not the one to steer this
My duties are fulfilled
Take the strain and struggle
The endless downhill
Wreak havoc on my path
Strike back with blinding rage
Nothing can hold me back
None will be saved

Each second the need is growing
To fill this enveloping void
Each instant without passion
Leaves me emptier still

03. Irradiant

Music by Scarve
At every breath, he drains out
Strips off and goes blind
No longer does he unveil the adapted codes
No longer does he protect the private passages

Irradiate the web that steers us towards the end

They swarm and hack
At the irradiant atmosphere
Their brain-wrecking venom
Tears each thought apart
So fast and vicious, they kill
With an immense cruelty
They proceed threateningly
To spread their infernal chaos

No one can reach the source of his venom
Inheritance of a sadistic unconciousness

Condemned to wander in this living labyrinth
Endlessly pursuing his possessed limbs
Each wall is a mirror, each reflection is torture
His interior light doesn't cast any shadow
His mutilated spirits united for a colossal eternity
Too impatient for a virtual resurrection
He finally exhales his pain in a twisted echo
Contaminated by a disease which death cannot end

04. Asphyxiate

Music by Scarve
In the end, everything is said. A state of mind one can only regret.
Touch truth but only skim perfection. Plunge beyond this painful deception.
There is a way for it all to happen, a riverbed where everything can flow.
Harsh memories scattered around, no promise on which to bestow

This world, a burden of pain
Asphyxiate this sickening state

Straight ahead to the place we belong. Looking back, it all seems so wrong.
There must be a way for us to see, and dive past each miscalculation.
Fear is the stone cold murderer, the rampant virus contaminating

This world, a burden of pain
Asphyxiate to recreate

05. HyperConscience

Music by Scarve
Floating towards the cosmic essence
On which your sanity keeps leaning
Every single nerve manifests it's presence
And still you're asleep and dreaming
Even the sixth sense is now awake
An entire existence is at stake
The palpable tension makes your blood overflow
A new seed is planted and ready to grow

Visual rays like razorsharp laserbeams cutting through the cold obscurity
Aural perception of the slightest movement in this all-enveloping universal void

HyperConscience

The highest of creatures would be in control
Of a sentiment so profound
Synaptic currents will take their toll
Unless equilibrium is found
Emotions quarrel restlessly
Rapid eye movements of the third degree
Yet there is only one single path:
The illogical road of universal truth

An air-like skin so transparently liquid that a single atom would scratch it
Electromagnetic captors of a scent piercing thick concrete mass
A sweet salty taste dividing the divine from the utter darkness

06. The Perfect Disaster

Music by Scarve
Gliding sideways, a motionless contortion
Suddenly leaping towards me
A light in the distance prevails over reason
To grasp what remains but an instant

Life ploughed over with glorious laughter
So receptive to this perfect disaster
Whispered words burnt in my soul
Nothing more than I need to know

Infinite the laws of chaos
My existence is the token
Relic of mortality
The barriers are bound to be broken

Perforate every inch of tissue
Plunging headfirst into the liquid
Inner darkness shining through
Absorbs the deepest of your being

Life ploughed over with glorious laughter
So receptive to this perfect disaster
Whispered words burnt in my soul
You're all I ever need to know

07. Molten Scars

Music by Scarve
First war was born before the completion of creation
Our words lit up and stained our souls with quivering shadows
Scarved until our time comes, will you choose to join in?
Banished from this doomsday, our scars will emerge

Scars are eternal (immaculate skin never remains)

Infinite the laws of chaos
My existence is the token
Relic of mortality
The barriers are bound to be broken

Eternal repulsion of profound bliss - don't tear up the missing pieces
The healing frightens the shores of your wounds - don't tear up your missing pieces
Scarved until our time comes, will you choose to join in?
Banished from this doomsday, our scars will emerge

Glue my molten scars back together, decorate the well that pierces my eyes
Light the candles, burn my ice-cold skin, watch... and sigh!

08. FireProven

Music by Scarve
Precognition, imminent catastrophe
There's no way we'll ever learn
Asepticize, stand apart or be set aside
Evolution takes a stranger turn

Burning through thick layers of scale
Infiltrating the intimite beings
Second to none, submit and enroll
Transparent the unseen chords of control

Fireproven - will I stand the test of pain?

Omniscient belief in the answer
Understanding, the key to all power
The last inch of virgin magic was raped
By our inertial reference frame

09. Boiling Calm

Music by Scarve
My subconscious battles it's way to the surface
Roaming through the wilderness that always prevails
The shell cracks open, releasing sheer madness
The certain man is the man who fails
To see will never again be to believe
In nothing I couldn't ever place my trust
Where projectiles plummet and overshadow
The last shred of sanity is bound to leave

Luminous ages of infinite reflection
Permanently misleading me from reality
Neural transformers deprived of connection
There are no more words left to be spoken
Numb suffering arises from out of nowhere
Defying any logical sense of belief
If this is how soul and spirit fornicate
I'll run all the way to hell and remain there

Boiling with disgust, I never meant to be this way
Bleeding of my guilt, I never meant to be this way

The death of a being slowly closes in - every spare second, a breath is taken
And when it all comes down to the end, there's no more meaning to the horror called sin
