Mortuous : Demo 2012

Lyrics

1. INTRO

(Instrumental)


2. EXTERNAL DEFORMITIES

Pushing the limits of science
From fear of becoming a corpse.
A pursuit of immortality
Can only end in wanting more.
Lost in time are words of the wise
As we struggle with our own demise.
Altering nature, resisting the tomb.
External Deformities; internal doom.


3. THE ETERNAL RETURN

Is not the act of awakening,
But the result becoming of sleep.
And if life is becoming of death:
A concept our minds must defeat.
We exit from this world
Into the light we are led.
Then could the reverse be true
For a dimension of the dead?


4. OBSCURED ANIMATION

Tremendous the weight of reality.
Delusion, dissolving, thus confusion.
Fouled sensibilities, an intelligence
Unable to retract.
Hypothesis makes no sense.
Barriers in the mind
Keep us from breaking free.
Locked behind doors
Where knowledge is the key.
Children of science,
Programmed socially
To abandon all religion
Hail technology!
Unspoken warnings,
All clear to see.
Ignored by distractions
Of hyper-reality.
Virtual self,
Not capable of thought.
No more privilege to live.
Suffer eternal rot


5. SUBJUGATION OF WILL

Lost, stranded, thoughts abandoned,
Solitary confinement within a screen.
Life still persists, but why exist?
The digital domain consumes all unseen.
Lies devised to hypnotize.
A new kind of addiction concealed.
Generations from now, doomed by technology,
Wired minds in coffins revealed.
Subjugation of Will.
Devotion to an invisible empire,
Desire to seek knowledge; not judged by one self.
Unintentionally fallen to social media prey.
Individuality once created unfiltered and clean,
Lost to the revulsive machine.


6. AMONG THE LOST

Upon the seas of thought I roam
Corporeality forsaken.
No landmarks now remain upon
The course i've undertaken.
Beyond mind out of time.
Beyond sight out of mind.
The astral plane I navigate
Through gates beyond dreams of fate.
My soul now wanders the unseen path
Far past the realms of dream Kadath.
Across vast barren deserts
And past the mist-ruled moors,
Awaits a place as yet unseen,
A place of undreamt horrors.
Finding spiritual dismemberment.
A chasm of sempiternal torment.
My psyche's internment.
Darkness' domain
I can never be sane.
My journey in vain,
Consumed by the pain.
No way to maintain my sanity.
Never to return to my body.
Screaming for eternity.
Forever lost in unreality.
I spoke the unspeakable,
I saw the un-seeable.
And now I must pay the cost
And I must remain among the lost.
