9. This Place Was My Tomb
1. Sentinels Of Thunder's Conception
This place was my tomb
I saw the face and survived
Rush of ritual healing
Harmonized steel rises toward crashing gleams
Supernal agents dream reflections
Windows of sorcery
In a web of chains
Again I question
As rage refines rage
Clear as the roaring moons
Nights and mares and the clouds beneath
We see the path in the sky
Blossoming radiance
Flesh of naked light astride the Mirrorsuns
Defy the tears of spiral eyes
Relating by the gods of youth
We must try to make us once more one
These legends are ours
And we share
Solar lions undenied
Ready the lambent fortress
Maintain hope to force reality
A thousand words upon a thousand splendors
Storms throb in shades of requiem against enemies
From chasms of inverted lightning
Atop plumes at the nexus of dawn
Thunder spoke, "Done."
White fire remains
Sentinels of Thunder's Conception
2. Screams To Banish The Wailing Dolls
Praise me in the howling shadows
In gardens of coiling apparitions
Violent lunacy in fragile lands
Of blooming legions
Displacers of light
Birthing limitations
Enslaving me to die
Raptured insanity felt its release
Eternal victims of the sky
Mayhem of living claws the chest
Plays across the satchel of the spine
Consume the gruesome valley of the comatose grotesque
Cast down hypocrisy
And recover your limbs if you can
And we're banishing banshee wails by the heavy screaming of The Dimandaahl
Judgmental soliloquies slough the stars
As symbols bent bowed and broken
Can't find the source of my damnation
Condemn us, everyone
Smouldering in illusory combat
Tension of bloodblind mantrae
Omnipotent vengeance
And spectacular achievement
Release the warriors of punishment
Biological turbines fall
Slit my skin it taints my wrists
It takes some work for me
Evaporate exhausting flesh
Statreds of hatement in aphasia
You're thinking things about yourself that they don't even think
3. Flowing Across The Deathpoignance
Formation and fusion of trance
Along seas of The Deathpoignance
Wide like the mynd that lies awake
As a feverweary nomad
Imagination never sleeps
Blind senses scream in shock
Before perception, a gorge
Refraction and inversion through the lens
Colors float in flesh of eyes
Hanging from the surface of the sky
Visions recede like a wave
Comets yoked through the deep
Lighting the knowledge of centuries
Shredded sails of magnetic stone bellow in the storm
Brains float as reptiles against concentric sunsets
Fall the skull of fire upon oceans upon oceans
Dormant villages of manacled souls
Enveloped by inferno
Blistered and charred
Masses in the tonsils of crypts
In the shadows in shame
Pens cut like swords across paper in hand
Words incinerated by the codex devourer
Tapping, biting, returning consciousness
Frostclad desolation is the prelude to rebirth
Benevolent forces in butterfly patterns
Skeletons of cosmic tones
Light your star away
Heroic master of identity
Praise the dead, I am become eternal!
4. Gifts In The Caves Beyond Favor
Truth will come to you in lies
Light beyond light behind darkness
Commanders sharpening the luminous blade of voice
Nuclear sabres for nebular wars
Numb the atoll at the eschaton forge
The first page of the new pledge
A book is a delicate life
Acidic gates of sulphur rainbows
Immerse castles in the arcadian cradle of ferns
Thyridium syllable transformance
Skills to reconcile characters
Circle the dragons of a shrinking quasar
Moonsaws, armored whips
And pneumatic weaponry
Mangle the lairs of planets
Crying shores of a weeping earth
Stone claws and humanoid forms
Poison and potion, tomb and cave
Silent cenotaph
And prophetic cromlech
Stargods in the floating heavens
Feel timeless journeys within eternal moments
Of deafening chaos
The hermit sees the warrior bearing the spoils
Without limitation, without doubt
With profound gratitude
5. Shifting Amongst The Conquests Of Posterity
I cannot remember my birth
First came terror then transformation
Energy to form back to energy
Sacred fluid of the future
Always flowing into me
They believed in two eternities
Poignance in transition
Excites the mindflower
Speeding heartbeats slow perception
"Open!" and the choir falls
Thoughts spin on their axes
In an orbit 'round the mind
Death has no reflection
In this spectrum
Beyond living comprehension
Have misery upon me
Abandoned to ponder the loss
Deranged experiments of memory
Shifting consciousness
Without constant
Invert the plains of fire
Straging and brutish
Upon the long path of posterity
Oscillation of perception
As I fall and rise
Feel deep change
And I still dream of finding a way
Insanity hangs by a friend
But you are never always alone
Relentless valor
And I will never regress
Evergize and transcend the eternal
Animate the coming sons
Fortified to lead at dawn
Ecstasy in every movement
Take the searching hand
And admire a new fear
6. Drowning In The Midnight Air
Something saw me drowning in the midnight air
Sheep of the night life me up
Out of the sky a diseased entity
Filled yet never slowing
Darkness whispers with the eyes
"Drink the blood
"And spit the dust
"Into the face at the core of lament
Freezing on the altar
Sleepless in falling thunder
Graveyard predators
At the feast of stars
And moonflesh
Bestial horizon
Of raging suns
Shields of flame
An arsenal of spells
Solace in the darukh
Perspiring at rest
And the voice in my head said to hold on
But the words on my hand screamed "Don't!"
Know the burning is constant
Like a tornado dressed in debris
By my fingers the heavens are death
7. Charging The Sum Of Ancestry
Primordial flagellation
Covered in shades of ritual dementia
Extending from molten lines
At the confluence of sperm and egg
All the cells who died
Fallen beneath the heart
Caverns of the wretch'd
Massacre, intelligence, massacre
Diminishing imperfections
Irony of self-coincidence
Immense skies in revision
Augmenting dominance
That devilry deemed insanity's spawn
And dawn bestows objectives
Thundertheist from below
Charging the sum of ancestry
The past is within, swallowed
I am every ancestor my mirror reflects
Extinction of exalted wrath's creation
Remodeling the force of victory
Might of betrayers bursts into feathers
With fires of primitive conversions
Echoes from the giver's current
I will remain as your guiding hand
8. Inside A View To Mirror Me
Abandon all moments but the present
Weave ideas and imagine thoughts
Breathe the journey between paradigms
Drink the voice of ecstasy
Growing at a glance through the eyes
Each sense a universe in infinite synergy
Beyond the stagnant void of hate's existence
Strangled by mortality
Constrained by doors
Latent telepathy rises
As angst dies
A gentle learning stare
Resolves the vagaries of revelation
Dark pupil inside
A crystalline tapestry
Pierces the depths of your regret
Within the profound taking of elation
Yearning to know in this oasis
Before the final ember fades goodbye
I am a man triumphant in the skies
Drowning out my night by wake of life
9. This Place Was My Tomb
Echoes from the depths of mind
A solemn roar at trance end
Alive but unconscious
Growing in strength
Gravity changes the math
In a different sonic universe
Fractals of the azimuth
Pump the spasm to force the power
Into a single burst
I stopped the unyielding tick of seconds
Endurance fell and confusion shrugged
Vultures from the immortal abyss
I live on in the new spectrum
Eternal resident of phinisteral abode
"Old boy, what have you learned?"
Life is ecstasy, life is god
And the gods still walk the earth
Toward the ninth aempire of ...
