Sensing the pale moon Cresting hills afar The mist surrounds The banks of underworld Birthed to suffer Black night currents Crawling on ruined flesh Crawling for hunger Born of descending paths Defiled, festering Blind to all sense Broken eyes, ruined flesh Born and suffered Driven to feed Such piercing hunger Destroys all sense Misfortuned wander into my domain Cries in the night befall ruptured ears Misfortuned fall without consequence Rapacious hunger drained eyes so delicate Countless victims shape Ruined flesh captivates Putrid visions shape Entrance and captivate You will kneel You will follow You will kneel You will kneel and follow The pale moonlight Riding black currents Empty silhouettes Kneel and follow Born to suffer Stripped of sense The path is worn Descending Acheron

One star hangs low upon the horizon Painting endless fields with colors of dead constellations Far below us, slumbering monuments of torture and deprivation From cities built upon your world of tears One path One moment One path One fall Our star fades out below the horizon These endless nights awaken lifeless monuments Anguished, scorned and suffering The circuitry of man, frozen beyond time Our path Our moments Our path Our fall from grace Stillborn kingdom Stillborn kingdom remnants

Ripples distort neon reflections Landscapes under bloodshot skies Ancestral chrome illumination Her eyes of malice pierce the night Wicked sacraments, blind of faith Serpents transform from pure light Barren elements, cutting shapes This cold static irradiates The precipice of caustic reflections Collapsing landscapes fading bloodshot skies Ancestral chrome disseminates Droplets of poison become the night Illusive symbols, devoid of faith Transforming serpent come to life Lifeless rudiments, bleeding shapes Cold static incinerates From within the ancestral storms Light serpents transform and evolve The impure energy unrestrained Fading chrome Caustic static Bleeding shapes Light serpents unrestrained Emblems, poison, constructs Neon reflections

Somewhere between visions of hell and hope My soul burns, our ferocious embrace Falling between pale strands of starlight Spiraling shadows cast down upon me With blood and sacrifice, offering libations To grace the eyes of your apparition Frozen miles of glass consume this heart Dried blood and agony paint this mask

Tearing into piles of human remains Plague, decay, ruin Drink the blood from these hands Falling to the place where light can't escape Clouding visions Ceremonies of flame and blood Grotesque implements Scraping iron Scraping bone Grotesque implements Pour blood on ember Gather death spirits Ritual fires circle Death spirits Black sand hex Destroy Life stops The ground so thick from ashes The piles of corpses carried to the skies Death spirits wing to rest With flame and blood we turn to stone Eternal and infinite Black sands become the earth Eternal and infinite Burning scars, blackened hearts Black sand hex Black sand summoning Death spirits Black sand hex Black sand alchemy Life to stone Black sand hex Black sand suffering

Forty feet of blood streaks the path to the next world Bodies positioned as if a cross to decompose In the name of love was the act of violence Sickly, addicted, loved and lost Destroyed forever Depart in peace I ask The path has now been opened With these, my bloodstained hands "Lord, beg my soul, for the blood on my hands was in your glory. To you I beseech, ascend my kin to the thrones of your kingdom, for nay have they sinned. As a sacrifice to the land above, I stand in eternal judgement, finding salvation and peace of mind in knowing that my creation will kneel before you. For I will not allow them to experience the corruption or suffering that this plane has to offer, and I will continue to pursue the end with no ramifications, for it was fate that brought the gun to my hands, and it is fate that shall seal me before you in the vastness of heaven." "There was no other way."

Wretched wanderer, indiscriminate trajectory Time chased down desolate visions cascading Into moments with the light of a thousand suns Such ruthless brilliance upending every lost horizon One fateful glance Enters the pull of one another Gravitation, disintegration This fatal dance Beyond all hope for one another Capitulation, obliteration The fractured stars They dim on our approach Destruction of worlds, calling our return To ruptured skies The fabric of our wretched form Evisceration, echoes of our return Wretched wanderer
