Grave Ritual : Euphoric Hymns from the Altar of Death

Тексты песен


1. INTRO / BEYOND DIABOLUS

I am the black cloak
That swallows the night sky
I emit the essence of darkness
Mystic energy negative force
On which the gods were nursed

I am the shortcomings
That fuel their inner beast
I am the bags of sand
Weighing on their tempers

I am the fires used to forge evil entities
The churning of uncertainty
Curdling your stomach
I am the lack of will to live brewing
In your doubts
That make you question God

I oversee the elder gods
Play with their worlds
They await my call to end it all
Glorious reign of suffering
Crashes upon your bright ambitions

Death take my soul
Beyond Diabolus
Death take my soul
Carry me to Iratus Pelagus

Summon me
Cradle me
Sing the screams
The Angra Mainyu brings

Death take my soul
Beyond Diabolus
Death take my soul
Carry me to Iratus Pelagus


2. SINK INTO THE GRAVE

From the morgue to the hearse

I collect myself
The world treats me
Like I'm dead
Yet I feel so alive
My vision seems hazy and out of body
As euphoria carries me to the tomb

I can't help but wonder
What waits in the hole yonder
It's certainly not slumber
Guess I'll see when I
Sink into the grave

The reaper cracks open his carriage
Puts my body on display
Priest lays his hand upon my coffin
Reads my funeral rites
Heard only by my fellow dead
As they poke their heads up
From their graves
The cemetery waits
It's endless hunger groans

I can't help but wonder
What waits in the hole yonder
It's certainly not slumber
Guess I'll see when I
Sink into the grave

Beyond my grave
Lies a place
Where no lord is praised
Where gods are made

Death now unfolds
Takes hold of my soul
Last shovel of dirt
Seals my fate's curse
Horrors lay dormant
Eager to be evoked
My screams pierce the ears
Of the giants awoke
I come not from the stars
But birthed from the soil
Reared in savagery reared in greed
I plunge into hell
And grab the heavens first
Pull them down with me
Through my hole in the earth

Lowered to the bed
Of scrambling dead
Pull at my limbs rip my flesh
As I dive into the bottom of the ocean
Of the damned

I no longer wonder
What waits in the hole where I wander
Toss and turn in my restless slumber
As I remain sunk into the grave


3. ABYSMAL ROTTING

Anatomical deterioration
Rots you from the inside out
Necropsy creeps through you
Infections breed in pools of decay
Exist to rot
In the cage you've made
In your old age

A world collapsing inside a frail beast
Who will never conquer life
Death hangs out of reach
Dangling so you can see

Doomed to rot in your abyss
Flesh peels flesh flakes
Your bones grow brittle
Muscles weak
Left to ponder life
As you sit and rot alive


4. DRENCHED IN MADNESS

Critical madness is clinical illness
But rotting madness is infinite sickness

Carries me to the grave
And to my souls unrest
Feel a world of joy
Drowned in infinite sadness

Knowledge of the ancient ones
Weights upon my mortal mind

Dragging its mass
Towards the dark void

March, march for aeons
Inch, slowly inch towards
The other side

The Creator bears the wisdom and
Ignorance of this universe
Holds a false hope for his children
I resist the temptation and longing
For companionship
I revel in seclusion depleting
The matter he exudes


5. GROTESQUE SUMMONING

God is the goblin gnawing holes
In your mind
The devils dance around
The pits to summon the grotesque
Putrid bile burst inside your skill
Burning souls drown
In the thick black sea
Draining down your spine

The wizard stands
Raised hands howling
Come partake in the upheaving
Adorn the grotesque offering
Feast on the fruits of the summoning
Inner deity spills into my conscience
Fills my soul with morbid symphonies
Breeds in the wash of noise

Beasts moan tritonal hymns
Abhorred mist of decay
Showers my face


6. INVOKE THE REALM OF TORMENTING BLASPHEMY

Chapel doors shut their locks turn
The minister looks away
As his sheep fall prey
To my deceptive ways

Purveyors of false prophecies
Leading my block blindly
To the realm of tormenting blasphemies
The willing human offering
Lean over the baptistery
Slay themselves
In the name of their lord

I run my chalice under their throats
Drink the blood that fills the pulpit
It begins the ceremony
As we lower our hoods

Fellowship of brethren
Whom invoke powers
That torments it's conjurors
Plucked from the stellar plains
Out of range of the astronomers scope

Invoke the realm

Trust those you submerse
And those whom submerse you
May their souls be fit for the realm
We must be strong enough
To harness it's force

Invoke the realm

Lowered into the pool I drown
In the blood of the faithful
As I rise from the bath
I wipe my skin
I wipe their faith away with mine
I look upon the earth with new eyes

Purveyors of false prophecies
Leading my flock blindly
To the realm of tormenting
Blasphemies


7. MORBID AURA OF DESOLATION

Circle of white light

Bends and curves
Dark shadows cling to the outer ring
Surrounds the horned figure
That appears in your dreams
You fixate on the morbid aura
Swallowing your brain

Purging the atrocious bile
From my rotting guts
As I slip into oblivion
My mind melts away
Reality breaks down
And becomes obsolete
The possession seeps
Into my being and turns into screams

Emits the agonizing
Wretched obscenities
That send the weak
Running from their lands
My aura leaves behind a path of death

Depresses the emotions of those
Who stumble upon my presence
And if you follow my lead
All you will find is desolation
Yet you wander in my footsteps
Seeking out answers
Unconsciously you take the tunnel
To the depleting of yourself

Because destitution is all you'll find
In the populated ruins
So you chase the morbid ring
Shining from the hills
Guides you to your grave
Amongst the rest of the lost
You lay your head down next to the
Tattered and tired

Doomed to realize
You're a dying species
Pay the fucking cost
I keep on migrating
Stomping and pillaging
My spirit consumes the life
From the earth
My aura growing as I travel further
Endless pestilence relentless
Loneliness

Blanket of my emptiness
Wraps around my soul

Purging the atrocious bile
From my rotting guts
As I slip into oblivion
My mind melts away
Reality breaks down
And becomes obsolete
The possession seeps into my being
And turns into screams

As I sit upon this rock
I ponder the world a wide
Alone with my thoughts
At peace with myself
Living in a cold existence
Shadowed by a pressing aura
I collapse dead


8. OBSCURDOM

Trapped in obscurdom
Rot in my obscurdom
Fall further into it's obsession
Drown in it's delirium
Grasp the hand of obscurdom
Leads me through
The gran illusion
Passed the gates
To a broader equilibrium

I dwell on it's throne
Rest in my sullen palace

Embrace your obscurdom
Adopt its introversions
Worship and obtain obscurdom
Answer to no kingdom
Boast in the freedoms
Bestowed by obscurdom
Let the rest wander through the
Masses begging for acceptance
I dwell on its throne
Rest in my sullen palace

Whirling in monotonous drones
Tumbling in the waves of tones
Lost in obscurdom
Losing sight of reason
Bask in the solitude
Hide beneath the magnitudes
Unknown unseen
Vanished


9. INCANTED CELESTIAL DEVOURMENT

Tonight the sun
Shines black
Upon the evening skies
I wave my hands eclipse the light
I clinch my fist
The moon turns to dust

I wipe the tears from Luna's face
The I spit in her eyes
I twist my wrist and stir the stars
I sever the arms of Orion

Scorpion crawls across the sky
I spear it's head and watch it die
I reach for the clouds
And ring them out
I watch the world drown

The flaming rocks
In the night burst and collide
Showers the galaxy with debris
Man stares upward
Looks upon his last moments

He cannot fathom decimation
Let alone the reinstitution
The revolution of time

Turning the celestial soils
Rotating the balance of life

I open up the atmosphere
Like a curtain
Exposing the gargantuan
Black hole
I lead the way
Walking towards
The mouth of the beast
Wait for my celestial rebirth
