1. A Crimson Planet

2. Absumptus

In tenebris vacuata universi, candela accensa est
In tenebris lux orta, ita erit

Lament terms of justified embodiments
Evolved into men
Law written in ink, black as sin
In the deep lay the chains binding the universe
Absumptus, so shall it be

Et umbra corpu stellae
Et decidens in transitu mortus flugeat
Creaturae Dei cecidit in peccatum

Lament terms of justified embodiments
Evolved into men
Law written in ink, black as sin
In the deep lay the chains binding the universe
Absumptus, so shall it be

Umbra patet insolubilis
Lucet omnia nota lumine
In obitum meum, ut discam resurgere
Coniunctim, non eadem erit

In black of sin
Law written in ink; the blood of men
Absumptus, so shall it be
Coniunctim, non eadem erit

3. Rumination

Stars hidden in the shadows
Symbolism in creation lo and bestows
Heaven to the void my brethren and I embody
Feelings of a life you lived are forgotten in thy

A place we once called sanctuary, fallen from thy
Skewered the temple through to the eye
Blinded in the unity of desolation
A light faded in the hearts of us all
Reprehension of my false immortality

The home we once came from
Ominous, yet glibly spoken
It fell from grace, decomposite and meteoric
Premonition of a heaven forsaken
Rumination of the world for the newly born

4. Destined in Passing

Essence shrouded in darkness
An earth destined in passing
Figures contained in eternal suspension
Never to be told all was living no more

For so long it could not be kept
The value of life and what is inherent of respect
For so long unreal angels cried
I was meant to be more than you, honor lied
Ascension will lead to the death of my kin
And there stood the devil from whence man began

Essence shrouded in darkness
An earth destined in passing
Figures contained in eternal suspension
Never to be told all was living no more

Through the flames do I hold onto feeble livelihood
To be with you in the end after life misconstrued
All of man's history is a tragic rhapsody
Chronicles explaining a predetermined destiny
Burned in my mind is the image of those who died
Shaping the strut of a people conceded and belied

Essence shrouded in darkness
An earth destined in passing
Figures animated in eternal suspension
Never to be told all was living no more

Having seen the world through hazy eyes
Perception existing in denial and lies
Death passes to the self eternal
Marveling at the dimming light within man

5. Ambiguity

Still black ocean reflecting me
Guiding the path to my ecstasy
A life to sacrifice for the new order and chaos
The purpose binding humanity will forever be lost

Submit to Ambiguity
Fill the blank that defines a life worth living
Lost from my eyes
I can only see now what I have made for me
A tithe purposed by those who swore to never pay

I stand over the embodiment
of a figure still with zealless eyes in distorted pigment
Gazing over the mountain blocking illumination
Through to an end in immolation

Succumb to Ambiguity
Sign the name of the one morsel lying
Spotted in unforgiving eyes
For what I have done, all for me
I will never find peace living in humanity

Don't speak of me, for I am none
Nor speaketh thee when I am gone
Beholding me shall embrace my will
Do unto me your cull
So that you may install the rites for heaven to fall
For I am perpetual

Don't speak of me, for I am none
Beholding me shall embrace my will
Because heaven must fall
I am perpetual
I am perpetual

What I have done, that within its sum
The destroyer I've become, it is undone
What I have, all for me
I find no peace in this humanity
I am perpetual

6. Sombre Manifestation

We are legioned in the majesty of fear
If I could illuminate I will depart
Accepting the unknown, surmising pain unseen
Fading is the light in and throughout
Closing as I am far from home
To be born again to a vessel nameless

I saw the leafs fall to a heaven
Raining letters, absolution of an unwritten story of life
An upsprung paradox is intransigent to my heart
I knew these would fall to my feet
And I dropped what was never fully grasped, to grow cold and fade

"In the gardens we destroy, killing the body all nurturing
Consume the seeds of light to rot and perish the illumination
And we kill and feed upon the flesh of the children unborn
And poison the waters and plants with our lifeblood
Set fire to the land and send the light beneath the ground
Smiling at the shadow shrouding an earth
We wear the face of the dead and surrender all
A candle dimming within and out of God"

Is of the homeless I walk a plane of trees
Paths narrow and holding forms of me
It was of the mind I grew sick of this love
Belief that I can do no wrong, never knowing what it is
Life itself is only a vision, a dream
And the lucid empty space reflects what I've become
For I am only but a thought

7. Projection

The despoiling of the human consciousness
Void and cold are the remains to surpass emotionless
The vile of the realm of men manifest to a new world
Send itself the oblivion from distinction swirled

The feelings I once felt seep into the ground
The pieces of creation leak from me and spiral around
The puzzle that formed me falls away from me as I foresee
Sight is closing and the night is above, embracing me

Enveloping is the state of awareness as light voids
The tactics of consumption proceed to find and employ
Who I once was is now to feed the greater illumination
Ceaseless fear in this greater evolution, naming it Armageddon
The ever-evolving cycle of life and death seeks a name

The matter of the once living
Passes to the closest to sustain existing
The polarity of life and death go to the center of the cycle
An electrical charge to feed the positive and negative in a spiral
Parallel forces form the means of life
And the darkness of the greater world welcomes you to the afterlife

Life seeks to embow itself in the darkness that surrounds the living
Comprehending of the loneliness I once felt returns to the weakening
I have reached the once glorious hall of creation where I once came from
Void of limit with endless sustenance, the one true home
The ever evolving-cycle of life and death seeks a name

8. Eulogy
