1. Dispirited Chambers
Imprisoned inside this strange construction
Darkness is constant around me
I can sense but I cannot see
Something creeping along the walls
Something guarding the chamber doors
Withdrawn into this place
From all impressions safe
And yet fear escalates
Choking me in its embrace
Disillusioned I entered here
In isolation ensnared
But a mind cannot be escaped
Nor the horrors it chose to shape
Self imprisoned in
Dispirited chambers
Where shadows form a circle strong
Where shadows whisper in unknown tongue
Every moment here feels like centuries
These chambers reek of tragedies
Suddenly I move towards the doors
Through sense not sight I keep this course
The shadows they come alive
Promising death`s to arrive
But my sanity left here long ago
And I`m determined to follow
Selfcaged inside
Dispirited chambers
The key is the state of mind
Inside dispirited chambers
2. The Resonance Of Form In Transition
In dialogue with myself, the answers intrigue me
I am the crusher and mender of my memories
I ask, I receive, I act eternally
I live and I die, transcending endlessly
I am all there ever was
Value not what can be lost
The resonance
Of transition
This day I carefully calculate this world`s design
Making sure the things are there that I want to find
My soul`s inner eyes are what forms the world
Dispiriting things, they pass me by unheard
Dispiritism of this world
It passes by my mind unheard
The resonance
Of transition
I am a world architect
Beyond the need to analyze and dissect
I know I have to believe to see
Instead of see to believe
Turn your eyes inward, hear now the resonance
An end to the discord, see the beauty in decadence
The mind universal in telepathic connection
The truth so controversial, a brand new reflection
Layer by layer the soul does unfold
Buried for decades by things you were told
Barriers dissolving, they no longer hold
Unbury your true self, up from the cold
The resonance of form in transition
A new day is dawning, my world is prepared
Upon the dispirited mindset a war is declared
Dreaming in the symmetry
Dispiritism- the enemy
This resonance
Of transition
3. Desensitizer
New paradigm for humanitarian crime
A new form of life
The legions of science
Forming alliance
A forged twisted mind, born in this time
Enslaved it will find
A faceless existence, a life in resistance
No one could foresee the pain
Of creating a being born insane
An embryo of a starless sky
Not able to live, nor able to die
Fabricated anomaly, writhing endlessly
Forever it will be
Considered a project
(An) unfortunate defect
Cataclysmic event but none will repent
Another step in the task to prevent
Unfortunate defects, anomalous projects
Orchestrating DNA
Reaching for perfection, gaining decay
Constructed star
Rising now
Shining scarred
Striking down
Creating this desensitizer
A progress from which none is wiser
Desensitized in formative years
Now turning to hate instead of tears
Constructed star
Rising now
Shining scarred
Striking down
New paradigm for humanitarian crime
Vengeance about to arrive
The project returning
With hatred burning
A false twisted mind, once born in time
Vengeance it will find
A soul forged in fire, desensitized
4. Behind The Lodge Door
Time for initiation
The origin of all to be -
Revealed
From now on the lodge shall be your eyes
Your thoughts, your very self
A string in the web you shall become
The will of the lodge be done
Weaved inside...
An agenda of lies
An order financed to divide and rule
Behind the door of the lodge
They weaved this web called world
Where supremacy is secured
Behind the lodge door
Blindfold removed, stare into the halls of the lodge
Initiate, you shall be our instrument of choice
The acts grotesque, you qualified and kneeled
Now the agenda of aeons shall be revealed
Embrace the death symbolism in our design
For it explains the essence of what we are
Generation after generation we lead to their graves
Devoid of knowledge, sculpted for slavery
All devoid of meaning, devoid of will
Feed the masses with culture, devoid of value
Take one step further and you will see
Here lies the scripts obscured
All we kept from the outside world
To keep our domination secured
Behind the lodge door
(Script excerpt:
Nothing ever dies
It just changes form
As every phase in life, ever-changing)
5. Patriots Of Sin (Aeturnum Essentia)
Given a gift of darkness, our coven embraces the heritage
Practising forgotten arts, bloodline is the rite of passage
Burning can not erase our kin
Blessed be the patriots of sin
Terrorized, victimized
The taking of our mortal lives
Changes nothing
Touched by devilish desire, demonized by authority
The flesh may burn but our spirits are marked by eternity
Our essence is beyond the ashen skin
Blessed be the patriots of sin
Forbidden knowledge runs in our veins
Risking the stake, mentally or physically
We are the unknown, the chaos breed
Shattering the false, spitting at stagnation
(so be it, patriots we are, patriots of sin)
At night we speak to the dead, we sing praise to the moon
Burning candles and herbs
Mixing oak, ash and thorn, forming the sign of the horns
As it is and must be
Among the masses we walk, revealed only by our eyes
Burning fiercer, stronger than the common man`s
Nothing is stronger than the flames within
Blessed be the patriots of sin
Blessed be the patriots of sin
Blessed be.
6. Carpe Noctem
A different world comes into existence
As the blanket of night silently falls
It makes way for a new form of presence
The merging of realities enthralls
A dreamlike sequence experienced
Lost in the enigma of being
This is where all thought is altered
A new aspect of seeing
With the focus positioned correctly
(A magnificent change does occur)
Life seems to invade ever so gently
Every corner of universe stirred
It is writing through hands unsuspecting
Possessing the very soul of this mind
Carpe noctem, seize the night
In the silence all is heard
In the darkness all is seen
In the dreaming all is felt
The spirit of the unseen is coming
A dynamo waiting obscured
With night`s arrival it`s soaring
Embracing the change just occurred
Carpe Noctem
With the focus positioned correctly
(A magnificent change does occur)
Life seems to invade ever so gently
Every corner of universe stirred
It is leaving with the arrival of dawn
With an untold promise to return again
Carpe noctem, seize the night
In the silence all is heard
In the darkness all is seen
In the dreaming all is felt
In the dreaming all is felt
7. Dreamscape Domain
Waking to a dream, entering the ethereal
Gazing, wide awake in the world of the sleeping
Clear definitions of dream versus reality shatters
Parts of a whole, forming the existential weave
Twins of the origin
Soaring past the gates built by a thousand fever dreams
Entering the halls, constructed by the collective subconsciousness
This palace everchanging, adjusting and breathing through our thoughts
Oozing this night from the pains and pleasures present here
Exquisite architecture, unmatched and unformed
The waking world pales by comparison
Acting the grand observer of countless thoughtforms
Seeing the astral doubles of experienced emotions
Grotesque beings of projected hatred
Produced by the physical plane, hand in hand with suffering
My silver cord commands my presence onward
Deeper into the considered unreal of no boundaries
This domain has the potential to be anything
Yet it is diminished by man
The thoughtforms of loathing and ignorance
Appears again in these halls
Their silhouettes becoming more vivid
Attempting to feed on my presence
Leaving the palace of omni-potent dreaming
Hunted by messengers of mankind`s imagery
Returning to flesh in shades of blood and silver
"Heed - recall nothing!"
8. Oath To Endure
A spirit awakes, encapsuled in matter crude
Encapsuled in the world of time and flesh
Under an oath to endure
Survive severe conditions
In a systematic search of the soul
To return to what it is
Dulled by the world, seeking
Blindfolded bliss, hiding
Reaching for truth, fragments
Drugged by this place, wading through illusions
Drowning in filth, submerged
Lost in the role of man
Identified as one
Lasting for less than a breath in time
Embracing the hate, falling
Releasing the rage, inside
Striking its own shadows
Suddenly wakes, knowing its origin
It`s what it calls enemy
It is its own saviour
Never has it been separate
Part in a plan complete, patterns return
Once so clear, but gone as temptation`s tasted
Collapse in fear, valuable progress wasted
Where is the knowing, the creative splendor
Under an oath, an oath to endure
Once so clear, but gone as temptation`s tasted
Collapse in fear, valuable progress wasted
Where is the knowing, the creative splendor
Under an oath, an oath to endure
Seeing the whole in fragments
9. Light Creates Shadows
Misguided by the scriptures surrounding religious beliefs
Each manipulator a friend of his own deceit
Interpretations vary from genius to absurd
But the truth can never be written or heard
Believer or not, manipulation is being exercised through you
Following ancient books or mainstream ideas, it is all dogmas
Including each and every aspect of all that is
Summons madness into a being born in this synthesis
An individual crying to the heavens in his divine search
Understands nothing of the complexity of death and birth
Striving to erase all forms of adversity
Oblivious to all things? necessity
Denying the existential complexity
Of the shadows that light creates
Crushing the obsolete framework with an infusion of spirit!
Behind the thoughts lies all answers
Beyond what carnal eyes allows you to see
Behold, awake and see all others
Screaming for water while floating in the sea
Within the reasoning of each liar lies one grain of truth
And behind all the various forms of fear lies the core they seek
Each to their own god, all have their own bible and heed its call
Especially those who claim to believe in nothing at all
Striving to erase all forms of adversity
Oblivious to all things? necessity
Denying the existential complexity
Of the shadows that light creates
10. Transcendence Duology
[1/2:]
Ending life, through slashes performed twice
From both wrists my spirit begins to rise
Sinking into the water, candles burning close
As the elixir of life spurts and flows
Transcendence about to be achieved
By the water the blood is received
So is my angst, fears flow by its side
Joining the mix that spells suicide
[2/2:]
It fills my world, the blinding white light
Unseeing I move, drowned in white
I am nowhere and everywhere
Confronting mortality, transfixed I stare
The puzzling enigma of dying
Here before me, no more denying
Objective now to the laws of incarnation
The will to live secures the continuation
An anomaly rises in the suicidal
As in me, the order ceases to be
Regarding life a form of punsihment
Redefined now in the time of ascent
It fills my world, the blinding white light
Unseeing I move, drowned in white
Transcendence completed
