Ever since the earth has expelled me to the world
From then on, I always hear a scream
Why God never had time
to fulfill mine, to fulfill people's dreams?
Mass panic spreads
Population dying
No intervention from
Otherworldly beings
A purge of humankind
The virus spreads
Like wildfire
A thousand glances catch up with my thoughts
I mark my trail on the way to nowhere
Days I don't know stigmatize my soul
Song of oblivion, freedom has come
Mass panic spreads
Population dying
No intervention from
Otherworldly beings
A purge of humankind
The virus spreads
Like wildfire
But if you want to learn
I'll tell you this
You won't get away
Nature reclaiming the earth with a plague
The downfall of man
At the fault of their ignorance
earth breathes a sigh of relief
In the face of a generations grief
One by one they succumb and fall
In sickness and despair
World wide economy grinds to a halt
Fractured communities beyond repair
Rattling chains, in waves, riots march to the winds of change
Speaking for silent graves, they paid for a society in disarray
Mass panic spreads
Population dying
No intervention from
Otherworldly beings
The purge of humankind
The virus spreads
Ever since the earth has expelled me to the world
From then on, I always hear a scream
Why God never had time
to fulfill mine, to fulfill people's dreams?
To fulfill people's dreams
(Why God?)
Why did you deny us?
(We are forsaken)
Why did you deny us?

Haunting Memories
06:21
|

|
The image of him laying there
Haunting dreams, evoking despair
But I cannot change the past
Carved in stone, my future is cast
A tragic end that could have been foreseen
From all the constant suffering
We were living on borrowed time
Your health was on a steady decline
Death, it takes us all
I'll meet you there
Like a flickering candle in the wind
We all extinguish in the very end
Where do we go?
When life reaps what it sow
To the earth or above
When you lose someone you truly love
Haunted by my memories
Making out the blame to be on me
But with passing time
I accept the fault was not mine
Death, it takes us all
I'll meet you there
Like a flickering candle in the wind
We all extinguish in the very end
Where do we go?
When life reaps what it sow
To the earth or above
When you lose someone you truly love
Seeing his face
I wipe the tears from my face
All I would give
For one last moment with him
All I would say
Knowing the end of his days
From heart to heart
Take my thanks to the grave
(Grave)
I cannot truly grieve
Time to process my reality
Earth cries, thy kingdom come
In disbelief that he is now gone
I cannot truly grieve
Time to process my reality
Earth cries, thy kingdom come
In disbelief that he is now gone
Haunted by my memories
Making out the blame to be on me
But with passing time
I accept the fault was not mine
A tragic end that could have been foreseen
From all the constant suffering
We were living on borrowed time
Your health was on a steady decline
Death, it takes us all
I'll meet you there
Like a flickering candle in the wind
We all extinguish in the very end
Where do we go?
When life reaps what it sow
To the earth or above
When you lose someone you truly love
I would give anything to see him
And for any chance to say goodbye
There was so much we had left to say (to say)
Goodbye my father, it's in my heart that you stay

Dagon Sleeps
07:02
|
|||
|
Washed up on a dark oppressive shore
Thick mud riddled with decaying ocean spawn
Aquatic corpses lay in rot across the land
A sick place devoid of his holy hand
Dagon
Beyond decay and disease
A suspension of reality
The smell of rot is thick in the air
Clouds of fog drowns out rays of solar flare
An alien world that emerges from the sea
A putrid place I wish I could unsee
The only way is forward up the shore
Shell and bone crunch under foot with oozing core
Never felt such eternal silence
Apothic gloom of nature's violence
But this can not surely be real
I keep pinching myself to no avail
Dagon sleeps, bringing death from the deep
Feared deity of the monolith
In awe, the ancients carved thee
Stumbling upon ancient prolific stones
Carved with horrors that the modern world have never known
A giant aquatic beast
Not even whales are exempt from the feast
Dagon sleeps, bringing death from the deep
Feared deity of the monolith
In awe, the ancients carved thee
Insanity consuming me
Feared deity, the fracturing of minds
This place surpasses all I had thought could be real
Shattering all preconceptions held by educated minds
I cannot see how these secrets have remained hidden from the world
Is this the truth or has my mind been compromised?
Or is this all a delusion from mental illness that has me blind?
I can no longer trust my reality
Is this reality what I see or all smoke screens?
The likeness of the beast is carved on ancient stone
Scriptures from the past that we have never known
Never have I felt such fear
A cosmic horror…
Dagon sleeps, bringing death from the deep
Beyond decay and disease
A suspension of reality
The smell of rot is thick in the air
Clouds of fog drowns out rays of solar flare
An alien world that emerges from the sea
A putrid place I wish I could unsee
With every step I lose my sanity
No one is ever going to believe me
Dagon sleeps, bringing death from the deep
Feared deity of the monolith
In awe, the ancients carved thee
Insanity consuming me
Feared deity, the fracturing of minds
Up to my eyes with morpheme
The doctors gave it to me to calm me down
Suppressing my dreams

The Forest That Grieves
07:15
|
|||
|
The forest that grieves
Death whispers in the rustling leaves
Your life becomes undone
Crumbling under realities thumb
Dysphoric state that perpetuates
A fathomless void of despair within your heart
An absence of light that cannot be consoled
(Suffocating depression)
Symptoms my sorry life bestowed
(Conversing with the reaper)
Every day's a battle, internal war
Mind against matter, dopamine levels poor
An imbalance of the brain
Obsession with death and the dishonour it brings
But solace is promised by the whispers of the rustling leaves
From the trees of deceit
Deceipt
Warm embrace from the forest
Beckoning the lost souls to the grave
Our final resting place
From the trees, rope that provokes
Evidence of past necks that chocked
On words that life revoked
Wandering the labyrinth of trees
A deathly silence, the feeling of insatiable grief
Feeding on your pain
Warm embrace from the forest
Beckoning the lost souls to the grave
Our final resting place
From the trees, rope that provokes
Evidence of past necks that chocked
On words that life revoked
Welcoming hand of death is extended
The path of many here has ended
Ropes still hang from the trees
Only their clothes behind they leave
Facing the sanctity
Of life staring right back at me
In stillness I feel alone
Transient life fleeting, thy kingdom come
Warm embrace from the forest
Beckoning the lost souls to the grave
Our final resting place
From the trees, rope that provokes
Evidence of past necks that chocked
On words that life revoked
Beckoning me there to join the free
An exit to a dysphoric lyric life, in death he holds the key
The tragedy of ascension
Silencing hearts of the forgotten
Slit my thought and watch the blood drip
Essence of life befalls the ground here
The decay of flesh feeding the soil, rich of it's bounty
New life is given from your gift of nutrition
The earth is enriched more than you are from for your own life
At least one of us appreciates your sacrifice
Aokigahara is the forest of lost souls
A maelstrom that pulls you towards its own goal
Its own goal
Its own goal
Aokigahara
Aokigahara

Neural Decay
06:32
|
|||
|
The sudden loss of motor controlled limbs
My hand is punctured by needle pins
Spreading like a disease up my arm
Ill affect to my beating heart
Fate steers us through infernal sea
Rejected promises, uncertainty
Disease reflects the darkness in his hand
A malice hidden from scrolls in the sand
Piece by piece neural paths decay
Cutting off feelings by disrupting brain waves
The sickness is spreading under the skin
With a secret assailant plucking at the strings
At mercy of the hourglass
Time refracted by present and past
Trying to fight off the triggers unknown
Was this caused by what my own hand sewn?
Seeds were planted in uncertainty
Growing in weight by life choice or hereditary
Nothing runs deeper or thicker than blood
From cradle to the grave, bio makeup undone
Like a starved plant I wither in the wind
Growing ever weaker from the infliction within
Sinking like lead, consumed by dread
My head!
At mercy of the hourglass
Time refracted by present and past
Trying to fight off the triggers unknown
Was this caused by what my own hand sewn?
At mercy of the hourglass
Time refracted by present and past
Trying to fight off the triggers unknown
Was this caused by what my own hand sewn?
Tremors,
Muscle spasms,
Crooked hands that become claws
Weakness,
And sickness,
A shell of what I once was
Bow down with your head by your knees
And submit to the suffering
Accept your cellular flaws
Elimination from natural selection
Bow down with your head by your knees
And submit to the suffering
Accept your cellular flaws
Elimination from natural selection
I lay in submission
Dysphoria chains me down
To darkness warm embrace
And suffocate the feelings
Light hits the eye but distorts informative rays
Details are lost from the signals feeding back the brain
A radial blur which constricts my sight
Closing in to consume all the light
Crying out for help and for that elusive truth
Clutching at straws for something new
My voice falls upon death ears
I try fighting back the tears
"What more can I do?
My efforts feel hopeless"
Withering and slaughtering my mind
I drew the short straw
Fate steers us through infernal sea
Rejected promises, uncertainty
Disease reflects the darkness in his hand
A malice hidden from scrolls in the sand
Piece by piece neural paths decay
Cutting off feelings by disrupting brain waves
The sickness is spreading under the skin
With a secret assailant plucking at the strings
Losing grasp, I'm feeling detached
Limbs reject the movements I act
Thickening oil, joints stiffen and boil
Spiralling coil till I hit the soil
In my veins the enemy resides
Withdrawn pain behind glazed eyes
Myelin sheath, depleting with grief
Disbelief, I wither like leaves

Maruta Lyrics
It's your turn
The devil's burn
'Logs' fuel the fire of knowledge
Identity lost in the blaze
Hell lives in the heart of the human race
Experiments unchained
From ethical restraints
Breeding evil behind closed doors
Lines are crossed more and more
Hidden from your eyes
Out of sight and out of mind
No remorse for your sacrifice
Knowledge at the price of blood spilled and for your life
Faceless in their crimes
War fuels the fire, the devil's rise
No one can hear your cries of pain
The beats of hearts remains, are yours to lose and for their gain
Forced experiments on human anatomy
Unknown were the bounds of their depravity
Brittle flesh encased in ice
A hollow knock is a test that will suffice
Hidden from your eyes
Out of sight and out of mind
No remorse for your sacrifice
Knowledge at the price of blood spilled and for your life
Faceless in their crimes
War fuels the fire, the devil's rise
No one can hear your cries of pain
The beats of hearts remains, are yours to lose and for their gain
Despicable secrets, Maruta
Disposable bodies, the beholder
Pulls the strings with no remorse
Dropping like flies, unwilling to the cause
Insatiable knowledge knows no bounds
To imagine is the limit, let's find out!
Birthed from a morbid curiosity
And wiped from the pages of history
Forced experiments on human anatomy
Unknown were the bounds of their depravity
Brittle flesh encased in ice
A hollow knock is a test that will suffice
Hidden from your eyes
Out of sight and out of mind
No remorse for your sacrifice
Knowledge at the price of blood spilled and for your life
Faceless in their crimes
War fuels the fire, the devil's rise
No one can hear your cries of pain
The beats of hearts remains, are yours to lose and for their gain
Injecting disease
Allowing the spread to collect data
Warm bodies
They plant the seed
Forcing women into pregnancy
These twisted tales unearthed
No justice for those that suffered!
Lest we forget Maruta
Never again, Maruta

Mountains of Madness
10:06
|

The mountains of madness
There is more to this world
Than what we can perceive
Horrors unseen that destroy the human psyche
Unravelling minds
Dreams haunted by what should not exist
Some secrets were not for us to discover
Just like pandora, that box was closed and should've remained that way
Cannot escape that shadow in my mind
My soul was cursed by those piercing eyes
If I could go back and relive that day
I would have turned back and kept my sanity
It was an expedition
Braving the blistering cold
Making first tracks in a land long forgotten
Untouched by the modern world
And what we found encased in ice will remain etched in our brains till we die
Reporting our findings
The line was dead except a static hiss
For now alone in this cold abyss
Returning back to camp
To find the floor riddled with their corpses
Pools of blood and limbs torn apart
A sign for us to depart with still beating hearts
We make our way step by step through thick Antarctic snow
In the distance mountains reaching up for heavens glow
What appears to be a city on the horizon
The air is thick with the stench of fear of the unknown horrors we may find there
Monolithic ancient structures unlike anything we have seen
Scribed with a long forgotten language and images of fathomless alien forms
Too late to turn back now
Or the deaths of our peers would have been in vein!
There is more to this world
Than what we can perceive
Horrors unseen destroy the human psyche
Predating human kind
Dreams haunted by what should not exist
Some secrets were not for us to discover
Just like pandora, that box was closed and should've remained that way
Cannot escape that shadow in my mind
My soul was cursed by those piercing eyes
If I could go back and relive that day
I would have turned back and kept my sanity
Unhallowed monstrosities
Once laid claim to this world
Fighting each other for all dominion over of their creation
Lay in waste like this city they left behind
I cannot fathom all that I have seen
Yet the feeling like I'm being watched by this cursed city
Shadows grow to engulf the day
Clouds move in to extinguish the suns last rays
Gelatinous forms that are littered with eyes
Flaying tendrils and their rancorous cries
At that point I knew that there is no god!
There is no god!
There is no god!
We must escape
And not look back
But in a morbid curiosity
I gazed back to the mountains of madness
The mountains of madness...
