Stare Into the Abyss

An Aspect of Chaos 04:47
lyrics
buy track
In this quantum aspect of chaos all possibilities emerge No great mystery reveals, no power or any wealth to save Sank in apathy and paranoia apart from all you see this darkness This dark shadow of another self, the one that breathes of fire The one who demands to stand at the edge And stare into the abyss with eyes empty of life No purpose in this life, in this wave of evolution But the intent to form your content is present and alive LIFE - Choices until the day you die LIFE - A spiral evolving in time LIFE - A quantum aspect of chaos

The Great Animist 03:56
lyrics
buy track
Sinking into your darkness you feed the form of the beast The one that dwells inside, the great animist Τhe nebulous mind who builds and demolishes on a fantasy canvas The yesteryear and the future How beautifully you let go forgetting your fall in this darkest abyss! But, all at once, clumsily you try to hold on Enraged and arrogant, so strong and forlorn Furiously, you spread pure hatred in the cloaking flesh And you kill screaming: “NO ONE ABOVE ME!” But now you stare… With horror in your eyes And despair weighing your solders, you stand and stare! Amazed by the void of your mortality and the vainness of your cause You are hovering over your disillusions and your moldered self For centuries these fallen entities dwell here Ungrateful and phobic, narcissists, glorious suicides Numbed by denial, worshiping the great I!

Beyond the Knowledge of Truth 05:06
lyrics
buy track
This great I, a tragic life guide A god made of alchemists’ amalgam An unconditional worship! Creator of value-cemeteries, demented worshipers ready for their righteous war And the smell of blood. Mildew beggars waiting for the shattering pain They taste the stench of the corpse like ancient gods Pouring their poison on this earth Joyful in the safety of their spiritual grave! Surrendered to obscurity and the pleasures of the swamp From their palaces of grief, they mourn They stare in the sky There is no answer there… Nor salvation! But this god screams again and again: “KILL AGAIN! BRING ME NEW BLOOD! ONLY ON PILE OF CORPSES DEVOID OF REASON YOU REACH THE GATES OF MY DOMAIN” So, they drug their bodies and minds to irrational ceremonies Way beyond the knowledge of reason Way beyond the knowledge of truth AWE! Prince death awaits! Far from the rituals Behind all fears and all rage Undisputed! Messenger of sorrow. In silence he awaits!

Blackend Mouth of Despair 05:36
lyrics
buy track
Lost in desperation’s blackened mouth A chasm bleeding out the essence of life No escape from these corridors Of thoughts, of thorns and lies No voice to speak the truth No consciousness to grab upon the chariot of time Smaller and smaller buried deep in your spiritual grave Rotting away, empty of concept, empty of will, empty inside This world is a marquetry of death Moments of a nightmare, a parade of shades Desperation crushes upon the spine Unbearable this vision of total death Time mocks the mind’s convulsive gleams Your cries a death rattle to the world A new fear before me, I welcome this newborn madness An enemy which transforms and exists in vague forms Springing from inside me to the mightiest of them all An elusive architect of myopic realities Laughing at me with this blackened mouth of despair

Divided You Fall 05:01
lyrics
buy track
And the time has come to face that fear The great one that lurks Below the surface of your bright reality Below the surface of your brightest thoughts You say you never saw it coming, you say you never sensed the stench You hide from your consciousness in a self-deception so fair This world now becomes a stranger This sky that hangs above is about to fall! Time appears in a horrible form A dreadful shape stinking of death Everything around you is already dead A new truth is about to be revealed In all its glory and awe! You’re divided from your self Your ethics crumble and your will withers You realize that nothing is left And divided as you are you descent Breathtaking knowledge of ancient patterns unfold Powerless to accept demise divided you fall

A Form of Agony 05:05
lyrics
buy track
And when all life within comes to an end You enter the cruel state of isolation The one you’ve always tried to avoid The one you’ve always anxiously seeked You speak to the void where no sound exists You speak to yourself, to the non-existing being Here you deal with nothingness! Thrown to oblivion’s pit YOU! THE FORMLESS, YOU! THE DEAD Away from space and time Here you deal with nothingness! Make way for the beast of desolation The crowned prince of despair He who scatters the ashes of the great I He who comes in silence Generously offering your peace He who rides beyond the sun He who bares to the world rebirth at once He who comes hand in hand with life, his bride But you always stand in the middle of their philandering arms Always as a form of agony… AGAIN AND AGAIN …SOWHATIFANOTHERJOURNEYBEGINS…?

Entropy of Men 05:29
lyrics
buy track
Awe for the beauty of life Awe for its ugliness Awe for the certainty of death, entropy in completeness Awe for the beauty of life Awe for its ugliness Entropy and awe, perpetual phenomena Phenomena that enclose the purest qualities of truth In clarity we approach the entropy of men Staring into a vast subconscious, a mind-altering darkness STARING INTO THE ABYSS The prince will take his throne, you’ll place him where he belongs Beside his timeless fragile bride, he’ll now have his fatal crown And you will hear the everlasting chants As the mortals compose the ode to death And in a fierce awakening you comprehend the concept That turns your life around, a mind-altering light STARING INTO THE ABYSS
