DORMANT ORDEAL LYRICS

1. The Mist

Icarus, your presence imperceptible
Your wings abandoned, cynically, so desperately undone
My son, my blood, I can't recognize you anymore
What made you frightened? What changed you whole?
Delightful winds that could take us all away from here
Don't blow out the mist around
Don't make the air more clear
Delightful winds don't make the sky more clear

Mist that separated us
That covers the edge that doesn't allow us to fly
Without a right for my perilous try
If I deserved it I would find the way to die

Icarus, what happened there my son?
Your life incomplete, morbidly, so desperately undone
I can hardly recognize the flesh spread right before me
What made you soar so high? Why did you rush decisions?
Delightful wind carried you up there under the sky
Blew out the mist and lifted you amazed in awe and brightness
My son, you were too close and too fast
Too eager to know the heavy truth that threw you down
Mist that separated us
That covers the edge that doesn't allow us to fly
Am I held captive for the rest of time?
What if the mist's a product of deluded mind?
Water makes things heavier
Heat will melt your wings
Nothing's what you'll ever learn
With eyes blindfolded facing sky in fear

Mist that separated us, that separated us
The edge that doesn't allow us to fly

2. Stoning

Why couldn't I find a verse about the mothers who
In front of the gates don't allow me to use my key and enter?
Far before I beheaded their firstborn my grave was dug
Now put my corpse to sleep

Give me a child and I'll give you a man
Able to form it, I'll mold it like clay
Give me your child, I will give you a man
With shapeless water I will pour your vase

Would you...? Would you drink the cup that I'm about to drink?
Would you do that for me?
As you have learned just give simple pray for those
Who stand against the heavy rain in a thin and filthy coat

Give me a child and I'll give you a man
Able to form it, I'll mold it like clay
Give me your child, I will give you a man
With shapeless water I will pour your vase

That's only one way road
No turning back at all
If you do not conquer self
You will be conquered by self

With stones on my neck and sourness in mouth
You could teach me the weight, the taste of this world

3. A Dim Reminder

I saw a monster, the lion up high
Spreading his mane, glowing with embers and flames
Raised his head above the clouds
So I behold a shallow, littleness of mine

If radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky
That would be--

Then I heard a thunder, a squeak of birds of prey
Revelation to all corners of this dormant world
A choir of those who burn
So I behold a mockery of all pitiful victors' songs

If radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky
That would be like the splendor of the mighty--

I am become death
I am become destroyer
The destroyer of worlds

I felt its blow, a hit of giant dragon claw
Knocking down to the knees, life ceases to exist
The view like a mirror, reflection of mine
It’s not me anymore, it’s not me

I am become death
(The destroyer of...)
I am become destroyer
(I am become...)
The destroyer of worlds

If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once
That would be like splendor of the mighty, of the mighty one
For I am become death
I am become destroyer
The destroyer of worlds

4. Derangement Zone, Pt. 1

Might be the borderline, the last time you ever hear from me
I can't risk to find out how much is more than I can take
It isn't real, the whole process, it's wearing me out
Starving myself works wonders, but it's the only life I have
Despair to get out before lies melt away
To get through before I'll understand why we keep to remember
What drives us insane
Locked inside a house set ablaze
Counting blisters I watch you from there and I wait, I wait
Back stab the shame
Then breathe, breathe, breathe the relief
Salt, salt bathe the wound
And scrape, scrape, scrape the fuck out of it
Whole world is going to change
Towards delusion we roam
Right where we stand
I can't stand the hoax
Whole world's going to change
I should have listened to you
Right where we stand
We are trapped for good
Months into years like centuries
Made of days spent in fire, a lesson of misery
To cope with regrets of destructive collapse
This place will always be the stronghold of lies
Back stab the shame
Then breathe, breathe, breathe the relief
Salt, salt bathe the wound
And scrape, scrape, scrape
'Cause it's the only life you have

5. Derangement Zone, Pt. 2

A phantom that wanders and haunts, gently absorbing the strength
Distaste of inhuman measures, yet bonded with awe
Monstrosity dressed in secrets and gestures, this knowledge embraced
Canvas is dripping with gray and delusion, the reason, it's dead
You had it coming for ages, you've brought this upon yourself
Degrading self-pity is what you deserve, come ruin and break
For god's sake, it's now or it's never, it's taking so long
Pressure determines the way the things work, home and what it means now
Cycle broken beyond repair, the ebbs of rejoice and flows of regret
Tearing apart the land of deception, the reason is dead, the reason is dead
You had it coming for ages, you've brought this upon yourself
Degrading self-pity is what you deserve, now ruin and break
I avoid what I already know
I avoid what I already know
I avoid what I already know
This void is all left to know

6. Sleeping Grounds

Whose name for echoes to carry
How glorious the sacrifice
Those flags couldn't care less for honor
These men don't know yet they're gone
Shotguns moan in the distance
So we know you arrived
Couldn't say we've been waiting
Couldn't help but invite
Battalions at the edge of frontier
Armed yet sweetly defenseless
Repressions assigned with no order
Until we decide
Until we decide to
Strike you down and your terrible mistake
Strike, into arms of destruction you rush, you rush
The disintegration, sad fall of all nations
Into arms of destruction you rush
"Day five. We're spineless. December the 4th to crawl, suiciders..."
Aggression suppressed
Warmongers turned pale
Watch the self-feeding beast with ten thousand mouths
Discord, dissent
Thousands of earthquakes
Made us great undertakers
Watched the life being born
Watched it growing old
No threat out there, for we are the keepers
Won't make through the night, won't make out alive
You won't make it to dawn that could point you the way out
We are the keepers, we run the sky
Dismembered chrome soldiers, neglected, withdrawn
Sleeping grounds, so very ours
Grounds so ours
The disintegration, sad fall of all nations
Into arms of destruction you rush, you rush
Strike you down, your terrible mistake
Strike, into arms of destruction you rush

7. Conspiracy Within

They're everywhere, they don't know yet they've seen it through
I must not be exposed, can never rest 'cause no one rests
In this day and age can't let myself be caught off guard like that
I look beyond the dimmest light, there's more conspiracy than truly meets the eye

Desensitized to every feeling ever known to men
Except for fear and caution and panic and paranoia
I walk into the shadows land
Where guilt continues and spans for aeons

Too obsessed to stop
I'll never get caught
Chain of consequence locks

Given up all the effort to concentrate on anything
Other than the aftermath of vanity
Footsteps, whispers wreck my ears
I step into a typhoon, cyclone, blast of persecution and insanity

Too obsessed to stop
I'll never get caught
Chain of consequences tightens around my neck

8. Tar

It's not a place for lightness
Blackness immersed it all
Shroud yourself in grimness
It perfectly fits your pale mouth
Just put out the candle
It's easier than feeding the fire
Don't let anybody find you

Abandon all hope who enter inferno
Who seek for blackness eternal

Tar – blood of the earth
Stench of rot growing for years
Touch up all remorse with that
So blissful is mind when painted black
Filthy is more genuine
So serious and so real
Like the world on the edge
No details, no taste

Abandon all hope who enter inferno
Ye who seek for filth eternal
Surrender and withdraw
Who seek for noise eternal
Abandon all hope
Abandon all
Abandon all

Silence means no control
Silence terrifies us most
Don't listen to those who claim to know better
Bring conscience up short

Wipe order out once and for all

Abandon all hope who enter inferno
Who seek for blackness eternal
Ye who bless unintelligence
Who seek for solace
