lyrics

Sinful times a past held near
Tortures all you are now
Nothing comes from the well
All's Become the death's plague
Did you think we'd survive?
Our souls left us behind
Lovers leap across the flames
Taunting hopeless evils
Nothing comes from the well
All's Become the death's plague
Did you think we'd survive?
Our souls left us behind

Your face starts to fade
I'm blinded and choking
My blood smothers me
In darkness awaken
Bear down in the Judas chair
A fractal light take shape in air
As all goes numb, he speaks
Waves of clarity
Let us peer into the
Innermost mind's eye
To reveal the true will
Sub-conscience now conscience
Past lives contain
Visions and elder spirits
To guide your way
Unhindered unrestrained
A perfect nature
We broke through
The vein of god
smeared in oil
And covered in dead dried blood
An effigy
To the tattered torn book of the past
Darkness compels you
To reach out and touch the flame
Hearing the voices
Calling you out by name
These seven words
Were wrapped in lore
All you must do is spill the blood

Dark hooded figure follows north
Blood on the moon leading me up the trail
I trudge forward, seeking the last of my sanity
Darkness surrounding, grinding and crushing
Huge steps forward
As the light tightly takes hold of me
Drifting in the glow that you've left behind
Moths follow your burning trail

The blood flows down from above
The floods come in a wall of red
It burns as it tastes your soul
The death of all you know
It all comes back from seed you've sewn

Overgrown to protect the core
Vine and thorn draw the blood of new flesh
Dust and bone, nothing left to decay
Seas of death calm the tide of man
A silver star marks the thousand year curse

From the Bowels leaking wound
Blind writhing worms consume
Eating their way with boney teeth
Waters of death erode the soul
Take it all
Alter in your name
Take it all
Alter in your name
Blind writhing worms consume
Eating their way with boney teeth
Waters of death erode
We knew it this whole time
We burn the fires
To purify the air we breath
We burn the water
To purify the stench of death
We burn the Earth
to purify the lives we lead
burn it all down
Burn to the ground
Columns of blue light
Alter of the flame
Alter of the flame
Burn, burn it down
Burn to the ground

Words we breathed left us frail
The despair we bleed from the heart
Gnats hovering in sunbeams
Words we breathed left us frail
The despair we bleed from the heart
Gnats hovering in sunbeams
Beacon of hope
The sky went black
With his fall
And mountains shook
His ancient name
And fires lept with his yell
In a starless night
And sea of smoke
Caustic ashes
Rain melts the flesh
Shrieks of terror
Harrow your mind
Your hell
Waves of extinction
Your fear is failure in the mind cage
Caustic ashes
Rain melts the flesh
Shrieks of terror
Harrow your mind
Your hell
Waves of extinction
Your fear is failure in the mind cage
Death a blessing, caressed by the flame
The old pale ghost can't say my name

Congregation of lost fools
Throw their last cents in vein
Hoping that it will matter
They wish away all their shame
My veins are burning up in rage
My skin crawls
In disgust and hate
The weak are used
Stab your eyes to see
Confused with angst
Robbed of life by fear
The cards of fate
in a deck that's stacked
The weak are used
Stab your eyes to see
Confused with angst
Robbed of life by fear
Don't waste your time wishing, make it be
Into a sea of nothingness
We leap off the cliff of hope
Drowning in ourselves
Something will break our fall
We leap into nothing
