01. A World In Hell

These wretches!
Hear me!
"Woe to you, perverted souls!"
Went naked and were stung and stung again

"I've come to lead you to the other shore, into eternal darkness..."

Ice-fire
"All this will be made plain to you as soon we shall come to stop upon the shore of Acheron."

Enter the infernal baptism
Justify yourself

The scar of every man
Tears wide open as blood runs out
Their blood mixed with tears
Dripped to their feet
And disgusting maggots collected in their pus

The scar of every man
Tears wide open
I can see the eyes of fire
The earth trembles and fall

In the lair of convocation
Grotesque division rise

I can see the eyes of fire
And the sulfur rivers appear
Chaos empire
Chaos alive
The earth trembles and fall
Shadows
Reach within to set me free
Fires
Set the world in hell

Into the fires of hell I go
The sulfur world of plague and moan
No one shall hear my name again
The void is a world in hell

Satan

Perdition- Creation- Demise- Illusion
"A sense of monstrous guilt was upon the land, and out of the abysses between the stars, swept chill current that made men shiver in dark and lonely places."

A black passage appears

Into the fires of hell I go
The sulfur world of plague and moan
No one shall hear my name again
The void is a world in hell

02. Ekpyrosis

Cosmic fire
Vibrating power of creation
Floating flames of cosmos
Generating their mortal spawn

Unseen dimensional ghosts
Merging into a new breed
Shadows of the real existence
Projecting their presence

As haunting fears of the impending doom
Distant paths
Projected shades

Membranes
Crossing our fates
Strings vibrating
Around and inside us
Interfering
With the frequencies
Casting shadows
Over the concept of free will

The invisible hand is materialized
Across the universe

The struggle will lead
Towards the end
Towards death
And all that lies within

The dark force will prevail
Towards death
And all that lies within

Ekpyrosis
Invisible hands
Ekpyrosis
Materialized across the universe
Ekpyrosis
The inevitable faith
The flames generating death
The flames will wipe us away

Obliteration
Through cosmic decay
Eradication
Of the mortal plague

03. The Mournful Sunset Of The Forsaken

As your lungs collapse under the heavy weight of the final punishment

The burden gets heavier and heavier
As the winged horror grasps its prey

A swarm of avenging messengers wielding blades
Sharp claws that tear your flesh apart

Drag your limbs
Through a delightful sorrow

As the punishment goes on the end draws near

Light fades away, hope dies
Fear and anguish turn into madness
And salvation is now a distant lie

The ones who ruled the land of the light
The ones who built their kingdom on lies
Now feed the hell hounds
And rot in the ground that gave birth to unlife

Virtues and dogmas crumble
Like pillars eaten from the inside
(By the disease called life)

The rotting garden witnesses the coming of the new master
Light has abandoned the realm

The venomous wind blows the alley of sorrow

The rotting stench fills the air
Gathering into black clouds
That light cannot penetrate
The deadly poison is now nectar
For the dreadful creatures
That dwells the realm

04. The Devouring Eye

Haunting the minds of those who killed the truth
Spilling blood and eating flesh upon the altar
Wielding their weapons of ancestral fears
As dreadful monsters with primordial hunger

For casting them into the abyss

From wandering the earth and walking on it he comes
Bringing forth damnation
As the signs of the true winged messengers
Lay buried and forgotten in the sans

Like a hungry beast
The rebellious fallen
Will crush the faith of pity
Accuser, persecutor, oppressor
Emperor of the grievous reign

Worship the eye
As the heavens collapse
Worship darkness
As the light of god dies

Drowning in madness
Of blind despair
Face obliteration
In the darkest corner of the mind

The gate opens
The light has failed
Worship darkness
As you are caught in the eye of the storm

The devouring eye
The final judgment
The devouring eye
In an ocean of haunting darkness

Unleashing the serpents, feeding the flame of its soul
That climbs the circles of life as it evoked

Unveiling the vicious conspiracy
By denying the dogma of the Nazarene

Worship the eye
As the heavens collapse
Worship darkness
As the light of god dies

Worship death
As the fate you can't deny
Worship the end
As your shining god dies

Drowning in madness
Of blind despair
Face obliteration
In the darkest corner of your mind

Before casting them into the abyss
Where their cursed beliefs are crushed
Into an infinite godless plain of non existence
Where their god is nothing but a feeble light

05. Subsequent Emissions From A Frozen Galaxy

Subsequent emissions from a frozen galaxy

At the whim of time
Space and the laws of physics
All that will be left are fading ghosts
Of distant galaxies
Each an afterimage
Preserving a final moment
As a swarm of stars
Slips into a netherworld

Of cosmic invisibility
Bound to the force of destruction

The point of no return
For these galaxies
In a event horizon
The hypothesized sphere
Around a black hole
Beyond which nothing
Not even light, can escape

Matter falling into the eye of
Singularity and become a frozen image

06. Thoughts Of Life They Wither

Ascend...
The absence of serenity
As serpents came with perdition
With one wing dipped in blood
And the other in the presence of God
Satan- He who seek inquiry

I see the seraphs drink his venom
Licking it from greedy hands
Singing their choirs
Perverted but ever so clear
Their gospels of inhumanity

I see their wings torn of
Oh, the brilliance
Crawling in the dirt like a dying breed
Licking their infected wounds
Without the catharsis needed
Passionate
Desperate
Dead

The child of man stands among them
Stigmatized, naked, uncorrupted and pure
Send by the heavens above
Her childhood shall ease the hunger of sinners and sadists
Death is her gift at last

Satan
Corrupt the aura and distort the glorious light

No weapon held by seraphs can ever wound this rising beast
Spawn of perdition- Rise from your fiery abyss

Death shall come to those who seek it
Death shall come in noblest blood
Death shall show you all the secrets
And wash away the light of God

Every single glimpse of hope
I crush and bury in the ruins
Every single trace of life
I burn and humiliate
Every single ray of light
Devoured by the breathing darkness
Every single thread of faith
I corrupt and bless negativity

Eyes gauged out
Useless in this lifeless darkness
Flesh torn into pieces
In this cold void of hell
I worship this death
Thoughts of life they wither...

I see their wings torn of
Oh, the brilliance
Crawling in the dirt like a dying breed
Licking their infected wounds
Without the catharsis needed
Passionate
Desperate
Dead

The child of man stands among them
Stigmatized, naked, uncorrupted and pure
Send by the heavens above
Her childhood shall ease the hunger of sinners and sadists
Death is her gift at last

07. Celestial Remains Of The Cosmic Creation

A long journey through hostile clouds
Of poisonous dust and killing plasma
To reach the nebula of the ancient essence
And comprehend the dogma of the pillars of creation

Gathering particles generating greater masses
Attracting more matter to conquer the stellar might

Matter- Antimatter
Opposites attracted towards a destructive end
Electric paths leading to
The balance of the equation

The path of destruction
Is taken with an inborn cynical instinct

Attracting light to darkness
To generate a new breed

Creation- Anti-creation
Opposites attracted towards a destructive end
Electric paths leading to
The balance of the equation

For darkness is life
And light is only a seed of insanity
Now dry and empty
In the dimension of opposites

From the surface of the nebula
That drains life's blood
In the system that no divine light can reach

Twisted cosmic journeys
Leaving traces in time and space
Twisting and turning on themselves
To reveal the gate to the unlight world

To reveal the gate to the unlight world

For darkness is life
A new state of self
And light is only a seed of insanity
Drawing new lifeblood from celestial remains
In the dimension of opposites

Obsolete ways now forgotten and useless
As a convey of wisdom
New state of the self
Pure energy
As a convey of wisdom

08. Enemy Of Creation

The shattered stars;
A universe
In which each action is in vain
And all human emotions equals to nothing

To stand before the eye of Satan
Is to behold ones limitations
This mortal flesh
Useless in the void

No life giving suns
No afterlife
No shining God
No tomorrow
No yesterday, no nothing

I am the enemy of the creation
That strides from world to world
The oldest star shall crumble to dust
Like the pantheons of mortal gods

We all shall fall

No life giving suns
No afterlife
No shining God
No tomorrow
No yesterday, no nothing

I hail the nothingness
The unyielding eye of Him
Satan

The shattered stars;
A universe
In which each action is in vain
And all human emotions equals to nothing

To stand before the eye of Satan
Is to behold ones limitations
This mortal flesh
Useless in the void

My guiding spirit
I give my life to you
I hail the darkness
That is the essence of you

I follow the current
Towards the end of all
Through the devouring eye
We all must fall

Worship Him
Worship Him

To stand before the eye of Satan
Is to behold ones limitations
This mortal flesh
Useless in the void
No life giving suns
Just the glare of Algol
No tomorrow,
No yesterday, no nothing
