XERATH LYRICS

1. I Hold Dominion

Resurrected, born again to issue death's hand
I hold dominion, I oversee the end of man
Hold dominion

Will life divide my law, cannot bring the fall
I came to cleanse with fire
And I have brought death to all
I hold dominion
Bring down these mortal walls
Burn for dead souls

My dying soul, no longer own
Life turns to stone, we don't belong

Burn for dead souls
Flesh
Burned
Dead

2. 2053

Man made stars on earth
Turn solid matter to dust
In threats power of gods to me
Men of only political integrity

Only an uneasy imbalance remains
Between truce and mass eradication
For now our balance is sustained
By mere threads of circumstance

Let them ignite
Bring to our knees
Will cease to be
Kill what they see

2053
2053

Will the next one bring us to our knees
Will the next one help us cease to be
2053

We play with the heat of the sun
We toy with the fire like a curious child
Curiosity that has built so much
Has built a means to destroy it all

The cold
Stand off has worn at the trigger
Stand down and fall
Instigators who lie in waiting
Of that all nations can be sure

We play with the heat of the sun
Turn solid matter to dust

3. I Hunt For The Weak

You are subordinate to life
And I shall seek you for as long as you breathe
I will extract you from the time line of existence

Always all things will come back to be
The weak of mind, the weak of voice won't return
No longer will we suffer their tears

No longer will we suffer their tears
They will be removed from the time line of existence

Subservient to all
You are to be afforded no clemency
The state humanity
For which you hold your head high
Shall be removed

I will... the message of blood hungry
Tyrant's treachry
I hunt
I'm hunting for the weak
I will only seek those whose treachery grows

We might have want to spread the shame
We force on those who want the same
Sat on a demigods pedestal

4. Autonomous

These streets are just borrowed scenes
These streets are just walking dreams
This city is autonomy

Life by permanent inquest through me
Trial by constant trailing eyes
This city is autonomy

I own your every breath
I am the purest gonvernment
You are mere commodity
To my eyes you have been seen
You have been seen

Constantly it lies in wait for me
I twist to become the living bait
This city is autonomy

I feel its ever presence
All I fear
Its cold dead stare, its heart of stone
This city is autonomy

You have been seen

5. Bleed This Body Clean

No longer is the state my cradle
No longer does it pave the way
My state exists to deceive me
No longer my saving grace

My state it is but a machine
This machine will bleed my body clean
My body is one, my flesh is cold

No longer is the state my home
No longer the will of stone

Aside tax and poverty
I plead for riches of dreams
The last that should befall me
In the life in which I am naïve

My body is one, my flesh is cold

6. Death Defiant

Where death but all wholly reigns
They call upon a new found strength
They call on all but mercy
They sever death's unbinding chains

His body brings the air of the gods
His mind is blind to fear
He will defy your natural law
He sees

I see only my human need for your pain
I am death defiant no more

Where death is all that remains
There exists a strength of will
To turn the tides
Of life that abides
By only impossibility

I call a guardian life force
I am a death apparition
I am death defiant
Death has no dominion here
For it has no more fear to give
To forego pain and live

7. Sentinels

A buried single warning
Danger which does not reflect
The shadow is removed, bathed in light
Forces concealed

A signal is sent, the song of distant earth
Minds evaporate with incomprehension
The sentinel speaks a language unknown
Awakening intelligence

The arrival of thought
Born in pain we suffer and learn
Through perpetual change we consume and divide

The small star bursts in my hand
Tools once used to destroy this world we left behind
We left behind

8. Passenger

The seed is planted
A change of the horizon
Those you once knew are now the passengers
Still breathing bodies inhabited by the others
Born of a generation not meant for this world

I know now
Amidst the new life I will stay
No more to die
Amidst the born I will stay

We all must one day say goodbue to our fathers
Through silence they come to know themselves
There is no way we shall ever know them
Our lives stripped of meaning and purpose

A child of the infinite
We will all become

9. Ironclad

I am vessel of inferior life
Scripture sells
I only wish for death's light
You cannot deceive me

You cannot break this bond of arms
There is no want for this war to sleep
They seek to purge, they seek to harm
For the ghost of war is theirs
Theirs to keep

I am simple and narrow of vision
Only I hold god's own kingdom

You cannot silence this body of souls
They think themselves immortal
All but the moment their body's fall
And the metal will be stripped to the core

I am ironclad intention
We are free of sympathy

10. Demigod Doctrine

How easily it feeds the mind
A bitter string of lies
It force fed the irrational
Where mercy has no remit now
Folklore turns my thought so sour
I started with the principles in full

A ghost of your own choice
A figment of your own voice
A shadow of your former self
How easily it feeds the mind

(Now I have the doctrine
So bleak and simple)
How it feeds the mind
A bitter string of lies

Once principled within mind
To public doctrine of the time
I gave away my soul so cheap
I resign myself to living sleep
We might have want to spread the shame
We force on those who want the same
Sat on a demigods pedestal

11. The Chaos Reign

Evil men transoform minds
Transform this being to become one of them

We are self-ruling jury
The voice of many speak
Self-appointed gods
We are chaos theory

Machines over reaching minds
They come to take what's ours
Mine

Corrupted bodies
Mechanised minds

12. Witness

The route of thousands
The exodus of sleep
Suspended DNA
The gifted, the intelligent, the powerful
Fleeing the giver of birth

Our brightest flame grows too bright
The seas evaporate and land is scorched
Red giant brings its fist down
Unwavering, unflinching, eternal, perpetual change

Only a few choose to witness
Only a few are prepared

To witness to cataclysm of worlds

Their backs turn, the pass is erased
Truly there is no constant
The surviving race will have always been
One direction
Only future

There is no way home
We're too far away, far gone
There no, we have no way home
We're but far away light
Can never look back

13. Veil Pt. 1

When my body escapes its mortal flesh
Will reality reveal itself to me?
Will I transcend all time itself?
Will I become more than just me?

14. Veil Pt. 2

[Instrumental]
