GAMMA SECTOR LYRICS

1. As the Sky Bleeds

As I trek through the trees
Branches creak out to me
The once heavenly body
Serving as a satellite
Our moon, our beacon of light
Is blooded tonight
Though I only see through the gaps in the leaves
I sense the horror that awaits me

I hear you there
Footsteps and signals shared
As I walk bundled in cloth and fear
I feel you proceeding to gather near Grasping at my skin
Rasping in my ear
Yet you never appear

My vision clears but only for a moment
Upon my arrival
I face the cathedral
Blinded by light
Deafened by the screams of the damned

My panicked mind has betrayed me
I scream to the heavens yet there is no mercy
The sanctum consumes what I once was
My soul added to the unholy collective
Locked behind the ancient walls

Upon my arrival
I face the cathedral
Blinded by light
Deafened by the screams of the damned

2. Lost in Elm

Tracks in the snow
Mark the tragic journey
Bit by the cold
As the moon's phase is turning

Dead leaves crunch under feet
Leaving a state of peace
Echoing darkness
Losing sight
Losing light

Reaching behind, an abundance of hands
An effort to prevent this lonely soul
From meeting a familiar fate

The pleads
Lost in elm
Turn back
Leave this realm

The smell of freedom
The taste of imprisonment
Hangs in the air

Winds howl
Spirits scowl
Upon the mortal trespassing their sacred lands
The smell of freedom
The taste of imprisonment
Hangs in the air
Like the fog clinging to the trees
The moon red above
Bleeding through the leaves

Like the fog clinging to the trees
The moon red above
Bleeding through the leaves

3. Wilted

I can't comprehend silhouettes in size
The trunks age right before my eyes
I'm lost, what can I do
Unfamiliar shapes and hues

The terror eats at my mind
I can't escape this feeling

It feels my flesh should flake away
Like petals from the roses
Like leaves from the trees

Is it just my mind or is it something more
The frost cuts through my feet like shards of ice

I can't help but fear myself
Is something out to get me

[Dave Simonich of Signs of the Swarm:]
Tormented by these delusions
I can't help but to fear myself
My mind at harvest
Like the wilted rose

Bound to this desolation
True decay, true pain
Death release this hell
Fearing what I am, I fear myself

Tormented by these foul delusions
I can't help but to fear myself
Like the wilted rose
Bound to this desolation
True decay, true pain
I've come to fear myself

4. Hallowed

Choking as the spirit leaves

Choking as the spirit leaves
My aura drained from me
Scratching at my eyes
My lungs subside
The sky looks down
Laughing at my cries

My soul ventures forth
Reaching back to me
My chest holds no home
My head holds no memory

Lifeless my former shell lies
Left in the snow, left to die
So I walk forward towards the front steps
As my body takes it's last breath

A weight lifted, feeling so free now
My perception shifted, I see how
How I got here, the mistakes I've made
The overwhelming fear, of being betrayed

The sky looks down
Laughing at my cries

Scratching at my eyes
My lungs subside
Left to die

My soul ventures forth
Reaching back to me
My chest holds no home
My head holds no memory

5. And Still They Weep

Engulfed in the pool of suffering
Their call for help concealed
The weight of death smothering me
Anguish is all I feel

They cry for peace

Knowing it will be ignored
And still they weep
A writhing mass, a pitiful horde

Despondent
Forlorn
Abhorrent
No more

Our only hope, putting our trust in
A mirage of a savior's choice
To cleanse us of our corruption
Lost in songs of rejoice

They sink down to their former state
Even worse than before

Knowing it will be ignored
And still they weep
A writhing mass, a pitiful horde

They cry for peace
They weep

7. Leatherbound

Awakened
Straps at my hands and feet
Rubbing my skin raw
Making my flesh bleed

Needles digging deep into me
Their contents tricking my psyche
How can this be?
With everything I've seen

Was it all a lie
How can I trust my sight
Was it all a lie

In walk my captors
Filling the room with laughter
They provide no answers
Only more mystery nothing to gather

No sign of escape
Bound to a slab
No sign of escape
Bound to a slab
Bound to a slab by leather
No sign of escaping

Awakened
Straps at my hands and feet
Rubbing my skin raw
Making my flesh bleed
Awakened
Straps at my hands and feet
Rubbing my skin raw
Making my flesh bleed

Needles digging deep
Tricking my psyche

8. Clavicula Nox

We are molded together
By fate and mutual need
For knowledge and power
For our goal we will bleed

Lured in, our realm
Your personal hell
Catch your breath
We just want you dead
We only need your death

Founded by similar disposition
To the night mother we give submission
We've built this collective to will her decisions
It seems our goals are finally coming to fruition
It seems our goals are finally coming to fruition

We are molded together
By fate and mutual need
For knowledge and power
For our goal we will bleed

Blessed upon us to carry out
This world will see her power
Give thanks and kneel
The conditions sealed
All your burdens be healed

We just want you dead

9. Conjuring Her

The air reeks of sulfur
Wandering eyes
Nailed to the altar
Circling flies
Beckon your brothers
Call to the skies
Where crows parade like vultures
They sing of sacrifice

Annihilate the body, extinguish the soul
Fires of sacrifice burn through the coals
Slicing my palm, crushing the leaves
The blood oozing out of my hands as I squeeze

Words of sin
Bring a gust of wind
An unholy force
Reaching deeper within

They sing of sacrifice

You will be denied of salvation
Doomed to eternal damnation

Fall to your knees
Bow before me
Bow before me

Words of sin
Reaching deeper within
An unholy force
How did it come to this

You will be denied of salvation
Doomed to eternal damnation

Annihilate the body, extinguish the soul
Fires of sacrifice burn through the coals
Fires of sacrifice burn through the coals

Slicing my palm, crushing the leaves
The blood oozing from my hands as I squeeze
The blood oozing from my hands as I squeeze

10. Sanctum of Vivisection

I object
For you wish to abuse
The power I have granted you
I curse these lands and any soul that stands by them

The way is shut.
It was made
By those who are dead
And the dead keep it.
And the dead keep it.
The way is shut.

Seen before by a prophet
Which you failed to recognize
All the visions sought for nothing
All the visions sought for nothing

For you wish to abuse
The power I have granted you
I curse these lands and any soul that stands by them

[Dickie Allen of Infant Annihilator:]
Blinded by light
Deafened by the screams of the damned
The sanctum consumes what I once was
My soul added to the unholy collective
Locked behind the ancient walls
I scour the halls
Locked behind the ancient walls
I scour the halls

I can't help but cry
At the pitiful sight
Before my eyes
They starve for power
They thirst for attention
Seeking something
Finding nothing
Seeking something
To make them happy
