In God’s stead he walks
Blinding, euphoric to the thousands
Who wander miles to witness
True power older than creation
Now face the consequence
Of unlocking hidden wisdom
Imposters flooding earth
Only lusting to feed
Come drink from my chalice
Come and learn my ways
Come
Becoming the unending
Surpass the fraud that you worship
Come forward and gaze at my treasures
Hold tight, the power that you begged for
Bring forth your new fate
Unlimited years of life
Cursed to watch the world turn
For all the years to come
Come feast with the gods
Does thou want to be reborn?
Reign in the realm of the glorious
Sacrifice all of your purpose
Give in to the pain and the hunger
See all that pass through existence

Eons of torture await us
A barren chasm of wailing
Where mortals are kept forever
Aimless scrambling to escape
Sleep with all your prayers
Of wealth and sick abundance
Hide behind your walls of greed and
foolish preachers
With crosses, you sing of
Worship and praise
Unknowing of what
Malignant forces you speak of
Arrogance seen
Disobedience paid by soul depletion
Alas the answer to your prayers emerges
A grim reality
Impossible not to hear them
You crumble at the sound
Of their thunderous weeping
Unwilling to save their hysterical audience

Deep in the ruins I found my salvation
Here, A holy beast has awakened
From the depths it emerges
Blood is shared and truth is revealed
With this creature I make my return
As the sun rises
Flesh will incinerate
Unnatural thoughts encroaching
Soon all shall rejoice
As they’re feasting on loved ones
From our veins we offer
Preach to all
The importance of forgiveness
Of Those who feed
For everlasting life
Terrible sins welcomed and rewarded
Created to worship
Only purpose is to serve
God’s gift to see new light
Hidden from those who walk among the sheep
Loyalty impossible to measure
Sealed to his will
Forever bound in blood
Your religions erased
Your scriptures burned
Your God replaced
To him we’ve sworn
To see his visions
To hear his words
To learn his teachings
Is all we crave

Still, are the kings of this world
Death will conceive a new god
Megalith mesmerizing feeble minds
Black hypnotic rays transmit from the altars
Religious hoards amalgamating
Duplicates of the monument erect
Worshipping and hailing the eternal beings
Still, are the opulent majesty
Distant calls heard from afar
To gather in its presence
Consumed through portals created for
cleansing earth of its filth
As Gabriel’s trumpets ring
Our deletion begins

Carried off by winged anomalies
Whose movements make no sound
Whose touch you cannot feel
Towards heaven I fly with fear
Into its luminous grip
Sin purged from body, mind now pure
Instant death, instant birth
Eternal I become
Its light too magnificent
As a thousand voices sing
In a language never heard before
Its strength unmatched
Plunged toward
earth again
too late to beg
The deal is off, my fate is sealed
A glimpse of the only true happiness
A mortal could ever experience
A place of infinite wonder
Where only the vile are accepted
His love unfelt
His grace unseen
Into disconsolate black
Continuous falling through space
Doomed to become
One of the rest
Of his children dwelling in neglect
Cast down because of imperfection
With those who dared mock the resurrection

Jealous Messiah
03:28
|
|
||
Works of magic
Seeking to impress
Those who remain
Loyal to his word
The Shepherd growing impatient
His herd has denied his control
Sing of my acts of brilliance
Unending repentance and worship
See how they bathe in my light?
I wish not to share my disciples
Know you nothing of what I am?
Jealous messiah
Trust betrayed
Failed the test
He will deceive
Treacherous fake
Greed prevails
Kiss of deceit
Plan revealed
Pilot’s word
Slays the lamb
Only one may you serve
Judas smolders forever

Shapeless Sovereign
03:42
|
|

Endless sea of sin growing more perverse
Welcoming all who breathe
Swallowing all who wish to be consumed
Ignorance is bliss
In its pits we swim
Purified by its filth
Hopeless pretending forever awaiting the Saviors coming
Festering swamp of blasphemous acts spilling over
Cacophonous sounds of pleasure and torture become eternal
Intoxicated by the stench
Of swelling mounds of mortal lust
Pleased is our shapeless sovereign
To be without
their lord is unthinkable
Still they rot
in putrid indecency
Despicable decadence
Emptiness. Void of hate. Where I go to dwell
Pay for all my sins
Sent to your magical paradise
Where you go to serve

Endless slaughtering
Ensures our protection
Yearning for his light
Bathing in his attention
Reeking, the bodies accumulate
Draining the blood from their carcasses
Piercing their flesh with obsidian
Generations of sacrifice
Fueling our God’s everlasting need for flesh
Convulsing and vomiting violently
What have we done to deserve this
Our skin is beginning to boil
Our merciful God is unpleased
In vengeance he’s taken our sun
Ignoring all that we’ve given
Only delivering punishment
Purging the tears from our young
Twisting their limbs ‘til they dangle
Imminent
Suffering
Offering
Irrelevant
Instant swarm of insects
Fills the air as we expire
Disintegration of our brief existence
Dissolved, acid rain pours
Draining us body from soul
I beg desperate pleas to give us forgiveness

Worthless Offering
03:49
|
|
||
My gaze, too grand
Too exquisite to comprehend
Unworthy of my knowledge and my infinite
wisdom
You grovel in sin
Like your bastard fathers before
Unimpressed
I spit upon the gifts you bring
Suffering unto the inescapable
Cost of flesh
Needed to satisfy those who glow
magnificently
Scriptures warned
Endless miles of grief foretold
Angels guiding your path
To a realm you thought to be untrue
