ARKAIK LYRICS

1. The Transcendent Spectral Path

2. Reflections Within Dissonance

 
Refractions of obsidian assimilation Blending unique through never ending prisms
A kaleidoscope of corridors spiraling within a maze of symmetry
Within a spark, unto itself
Folding over to create a chasm of creation
A light that spreads in all directions and crosses back upon itself
 
An enigmatic lattice, that reaches beyond the fathoms of time
And into its own presence inside the structure that spawned ageless cosmos
 
[Chorus:]
Beheld by all who traipse the boundaries of reality 
Transcend the limits of thought into blinding swells
Of convulsing wavelengths, all directions these reflections coalesce
 
Staring back at one another
Sacred mirrors assimilating the dynamic of space and time
Coiling vibrant grid-works that reminisce unto the future
Stare into the Tetragrammaton mirror
The equilibrium of existence, a continuum of duality
All sides interlocked to create life
 
These reflections harbor the dual nature of reality
The symmetry writhes its chaos upon all angles
All sides a precipice spring board
Of the reflections within dissonance
 
Unfurl this pestilence and find that in all things
Lies the nature of their opposites
If one exists then so must its contrary
Unfurl this pestilence and find that in all things
Lies the nature of their opposites
Without the one, the others would cease to be
 
An enigmatic lattice, that reaches beyond the fathoms of time
And into its own presence inside the structure that spawned
 
[Chorus]
 
Each piece of the clockwork toils to the rhythm
Of the winding cosmos lost in its reflection

3. Paradigm

 
Deceit, disease, decline, this virus contradicting reason and theology
Contrasting ideologies fuel the vehemence through the imaginations of humankind
They are a part of the same feral beast, whose venom drips from ivory fangs
Waiting to rend the vacillating mind, her feast is our collapse incarnate
 
This succubus sits perched on a throne of misconceptions
She lies in a stagnant pool of spiritual afterbirth
Pregnant with deception she spreads her wings
As we receive her miscarriages willingly
The abscesses of human thought grow as she rapes her mind of its reason
 
Hope, faith, hypocrisy, rebellion, contorted into lifestyle distortions
Are the spawn that become her paradigm abortions
She feeds her dead offspring to the masses, holy men and counter culture
Both convulse in hunger, reduced to pains of famine
They will tell you who to worship, and advise you who to hate
You have become the canvas upon which they scrape their paint
 
All paths of logic lead to some form of light
Needle feast hemorrhages try to rip reason from insight
Clots from the womb pour forth with tides of delusion
We have become lost in a sea of illusion
 
[Chorus:]
There is a path of light for those who aren't blinded by the lies that their fed
There are still minds in which logic and the divine have not departed
From malignant tongues forked in abhorrence
Their odium seeps piercingly into the common rationality
Kneel to the snake, kneel to the stake, either side breeds filth
Seek the knowledge you wish to gain and think for your fucking self
 
The wonder in the unknown, the infinite Scraped away by clawed hands in jagged grip
Perceive the sacrifice of common sense staked
Ways of thought that disguise true meaning
Deceiving distractions seizing our eyes and our minds
Leaving shrouds of divinity
 
Bleeding us of our foresight, leaving origins cauterized, these inconsistencies of thought
Shall reap their stench and tear us under
As we rot in withered tatters, decayed within mounds of ruin
We must ascend beyond these paradigms of hypocrisy
For reason and insight are locked away in the enveloping patterns of destiny
 
[Chorus]

4. Obscured Luminosity

This constant discord is perpetual
But we can decipher and end to it
Within the scripts of wisdom found beyond the chasm of thought
The enigmatic signals of human potential
Seeking the answers that must be sought

Realize beyond our minds eye, culminate this astral desire
I have begun ascension
Cathartic energies manifested
Malevolence is now but spec upon the lattice of higher consciousness

Disaster is but a small retribution
Compared to the beings of burden that induced it
Sights and visions and hopeless acquisitions
Is this certainty or only premonition?
Contortions of the world which we've predicted
Should bring upon the advent of new occasions 

Realize beyond our minds eye, culminate this astral desire
I have begun ascension
Cathartic energies manifested
Malevolence is now but spec upon the lattice of higher consciousness

What would be better than to burn it all away?
We are the cause of all our suffering
What's the answer? Lies ruin
Devastation is wrought by our own lies

Peel back the flesh and peer inside, what is to be found?
Deep inside deception within the shell
Is the carrier of the infinite boundless light

5. Womb Of Perception   

Splatter the canvas of being, resonate with the essence of radiance
Tread the path deep within the outside realm, and dissasimulate to become whole
 
Vibrate in unison with the symphony of existence
Its crescendos sweep through the dimensions of reality
 
Mythical ethos falling through the glass, shattering memories past
A multitude of origins culminating, smell the scent of withering ash
 
[Chorus:]
This claims existence, ones presence uninhibited
Staining the conscious and distant, gorge the minds eye upon the cinders
The glass sits placid as a massive universe sits hidden
Gorge the minds eye, the soul is a parchment upon which creation is written
The glass sits placid as a massive universe sits hidden
 
The spiral unwinds, let this force take you in as whole
Under the ground of the withering monarch
Gazing in their hallowed veins, there birth remains in vast unreaching
Searching for all vital senses, an answer lies within the tempest
Ensue beyond your own well being, free reach of sightless seeing
The spiral unwinds, let this force take you in as whole
Under the ground of the withering monarch
 
Stacks of clamor mount upon weakened shoulders
Falter blindly as we forget our instincts
But behind the withered doors lies the answer tightly bounded
As we unlock our hidden supremacy
 
[Chorus]
 
Gazing in their hallowed veins, there birth remains in vast unreaching
Searching for all vital senses, an answer lies within the tempest
Ensue beyond your own well being, free reach of sightless seeing
Under locks of your digression, free yourself from your depression

6. The Divine Manifestation

I gaze in wonder upon creation
Existence amazes me with its divine manifestation
The clockwork of reality woven by time
These complexities have frozen my mind

Sands that fall through glasses cosmological land to create the pyramids of
Numinous vibrancy balanced atop these ever heightening 
Designs are interlocking synchronized molecular phenomenon's
The conscious vibrations transfer

[Chorus:]
The fabric of existence forever guides me
Infinity is elusive as its serene hand sets me free

Endless patterns returning to consequence
Is it me or is destiny the truth behind the-

Sands that fall through glasses cosmological land to create the pyramids of
Numinous vibrancy balanced atop these ever heightening
Designs are interlocking synchronized molecular phenomenon's
The conscious vibrations transverse

[Chorus]

Inner veracity aligned with all being
The eyes of the cosmos seen through the forefront of eternity

Stand back and witness the concrete nature of the erratic
This is the multitudinous, we are the pieces, the machine will run without us
Will we find our ebb in the tide

7. Malignant Ignorance

Down comes the angel to exile
The beast and all its misgivings, into the bottomless
Void of unending for a thousand years down she glides
With key in iron grasp
Clenched firmly within her palm
She unbinds topographical mounds  Unwinds the fabric of eons
And in a whirl of mushroomed atmospheres
Of dark matter and omnipresent cosmic dust
She expels the trickery reptillious purveyor of brooding consequences
To a darkness unrelenting
But the key is not a key, it is a scalpel,The beast is not a dragon but merely a tumor

Sitting, thriving, an undulating wad
On the inner mind of mankind, freewill gone utterly awry
This could be our Armageddon

[Chorus:]
What we need is not a dogmatic explosion with angels 
And flames, dragons and chalices, we need a complete metamorphosis
Of the consciousness of all mankind

For thousands of years we strolled around our cosmic hospice
While it throbbed deceitful punctures into
The life paradigm, clouding our judgment by placing ego-centrical metamorphosis
Before our existential manifestation receptors
Clogging our desires with delusions of grandeur
Addictions to endorphin rushes converting our attentions

Gonzo free radical thought cells exuding meticulous energy
Pummeling the free autonomy
With its incestuous offspring; hate, greed, lust, jealousy

Dispensed fervently in those last ominous pages
Is it more than a final grasp at our stolen immortality?
Thrust away the snake, step aside, take a number, repent, rejoice
Go to window number zero, pick up your wings
And your newly restored eternal being

Now her comes the doctor and she looks ever so sweet with the
Blade in hand, we wait for the incision  
But will it peak its benign head around the corner again in a thousand years?

[Pre-chorus / chorus]

8. Elemental Synthesis

Sway with visions stabbing the eyes of lucid acceptance
Flowing omniscience, disguised in catatonic escalated rapture
A needle-work mosaic of the bones that penetrated inward
Withered and torn figments of vertebrate kingdoms
Left to stand as pigment arching thrones, forgotten in skin soaked reveries
As the flesh draped over serrated frames
Shatter forth cerebral beacons that languish in catatonic pupil dilations 
There is no disguise that time allows We are all integrated as conductors as well as the machine

[Chorus:]
And when the flame of our conduit burns down
We will sink into infinity as its tide beckons us onward
Dig in to the patterns of the soil majestic rays of light spiral upon the lush empires
Branching within the depths of this gacien temple

Vast in the reach as its grip holds tight, life forces un-bounding
Swell within the flow of tides, Immense topography that blankets the earth
Its movement controlled by the earthy satellite
That orbits and perpetuates the elements
At their core they are united by the threads of their binding fabric
At our core we are one

Gradual infinity eludes the boundaries of continuity
Overlapping in boundless pestilence, Careening through the infinite sea of atoms
Energies moving though out the cosmos, replicating universal patterns
Reflecting creation upon itself

This existential paradox that floods this universe 
Grasp the hand of this mage as it leads you to the purest essence of all things
The flesh, the elements, the cosmos, At the core they are united with all things as they pulsate their power
Shatter forth cerebral beacons that languish in catatonic pupil dialations 
There is no disguise that time allows
For we are bound to all things in life then united in eternal death

[Chorus]

9. Elegy For The Disillusioned

Hollowed in existential chaos, feel the embrace of its undertow
Phase in and out of a deconstructing mage that we find
Gaze into this hatred filled plight and design the fabrics of destruction
As fermenting as it may be, splendor lies within its shards

Pathological embers smolder continuously, Vividly escaping through scorched synapses
This ferment is all that will be, stand and absorb its inequity

[Chorus:]
Destruction is our only means and we spread it with such fervor,
I'd like to bask in the warmth of our civilization as it goes down in flames
This requiem rings in the ears of a populace lost in a labyrinth of arrogance

As dissonance reigns its force shackles all its soils
The face of all being shattered underneath its pressure
Witness this disfigured atrocity, it stands alone amongst its ruins

[Chorus]

Bleed deceit as it scrapes the face of our mother with razorblade fingertips
Tear away the essence of humanity like wolves ravaging children of excess

But to descend deep inside the cracks is to discover profound brilliance
And to believe such an agitating dream, Into depths of worldly malignancy
The key remains concealed

Lost inside this fractured antipathy, wallow in a cavern of malevolent precipitation
Bleeding from the womb of a mother, this disease has spread beyond regression
Forever more

10. Face Of Regression

The structure of your intellect, defective in its conduct
Lessen yourself become inhumane you know nothing further
I wouldn't ask you to utilize your senses, this feeble substance of the earth
That can be traced back for ages
A diminutive existent creature, never to prosper, never to gain
Never enlightenment, you will only descend
A facet of the mind that you cannot detain
A system of nothingness, more formless you become
Degeneration of this race, few are left who grasp this understanding
And you will merely descend

[Chorus:]
Are you the face of regression we fear?
An infection
Human disintegration strayed from the path, becoming nothing
But the weak vessel that destroys, this farce of intellect has grown sour

What is to become of such deformed allocations?
The bleak consequences from years of neglect
Shall shatter the image of mortality and cover the path
Of this devolution to come

The progenies of distorted perceptions will eat themselves alive
The brood of idiocy will tear the flesh from reason and scar the face of a race
Seconds from collapse
Entangled impressions of acceptance carving away at a race
Treading amongst disgracefully
Awaken from the hate sphere and await the lucid dawn

Those who blindly kneel to fictional Armageddons
Seek to achieve nothing with such passive actions
Only creating a charade of apocalyptic travesties
The gift of free will was given but stays unutilized

By the dogmatic monarchs to ever suit their needs
For they thrive on the fear of total annihilation
If a transformation is to come we must force it into realization
Disconnect from the deception, deconstruct the complication

[Chorus]

Are you the face of regression?

(then everyone) Regression
