Lyrics


1. BURN THEM

Burn them
Burn them all

Eyes of the overseers
Peer at the dark descending blight.

The observers of ruin
The witness’ of demise

They abhor and detest
They perlustrate and condemn.

Wardens of the pariahs
Nurturing the spectators of self-annihilation

The defiance of cognitive dissonance
Perpetuates subservient demeanors

Unyielding to the weight of iridescent insights
Unperceiving to the words of the benights

The scourge comes alive
And the cause is reborn
Reborn from zeal
Thriving through malice
Fed by vengeance
Bred by greed
Permeated by the demagogues

Eyes of the overseers
Peer at the dark descending blight.

The observers of ruin
The witness’ of demise

Rise, reprisal is impending
Wrath of Ages shall be upon them


2. ILLICIT STATE

Come behold the prophets of hate
The spite and terror brought upon man
With guile, dishonor and hate
Their feeble minds corrupt.

Malevolence incarnate
Wrought by callous bedlamites
Prophets and icons
Deception and deceit
That,
what shall never
be depicted
the serpent
of sickness
and disorder

There will never be sovereignty
There will never be supremacy
There is only annihilation
And unconditional
Eradication

Covenants of self-immolation
Tormentors of innocence
Your absolute betrayal of life
Justifies naught but utter defeat

Your philistine despicable reign,
The plague of your venomous words,
Your illicit state shall be scorched
To a desert of abandoned faith.


3. HEROLDS OF ENSLAVEMENT

In the dark of a void
In the age of repentance
A past on fire, bereft of havens

In their visions they bask
Gorgers of gospel
Persecutors of impugners
Shepherds of fear
Sheltered by impunity
Herolds of enslavement

Cowardice
harboring a shrine of ancient zeal
Dethrone them all
Expatriate the blight of humankind

Festering
Conglomerate of tyrant minds
End them all
Ravage the self-proclaimed fathers

Their end forgone
The rubicon of Ages
The culmination of an ancient strife
The fall of enslavement

Essence of the mind
Foundations now unconstrained.
Will of the broken, dragooned to follow,
Retaliates and abrogates the folly


4. A HOLLOW TOMB

Begone, portal to the light
The gates are being sealed

Delusions, devious and foul
Abolished and revoked

A burning codex, torn from the weak,
from frail arms and trembling hands
Pages wilting, the symbols buried
The past shall be but a hollow tomb
A tomb, of eternal remorse.
And history will follow, in our wake

Wake of ascension

Temple of the new light
A beacon in the darkest of hours
We, the vanguards of the new dawn,
Emerging for the meek

Millennia of heresy
Ages of subjugation
All the blood for nought
All the strife now void


5. DOMINIONISM

Earthbound, rise from the soil
Scion of stars, claim and reshape your birthright

Look through the eyes of a purified mind
Reform and make amends, rectify the past

Spellbound, sectarian fathers
Men of the cloth, thwarters of truth and pureness

Ponder with an unclouded heart
Wreak vengeance and havoc upon them
Restore equity through fire
Before their lies proliferate

Curse of the apostolic
The theocratic bigots,
Totalitarian despots,
And pious charlatans

A slow descent
Into dominionism
Cull and quell the downfall
Commence the uprising


6. UNDIVINE

A fading husk, an empty shell
A life you lived and lost in sin

Incomplete, betrayed you fell
Pondering what could have been

The trial that was meant to come
The bliss, the final light beyond

Absent, like a mind undone
Gone just like the hate you spawned

Witness, legacies
Purged from time
Purged from mind

Shards of
Guile and spite
Remnants wilt away

Now, at the end
End, of your cycle
There is nothing
There is no one
Come, let it all be gone

Witness, memories
Lost in time
The undivine

Fragments of bigotry
The last remains of your enmity

Face the night, oh finite one
Once engulfed your faith undone

Revel in the time you seized
Life and memories received

Truth is always in our reach
But so many keep the leash
As the ages pass us by
Spare no pity
For the meek


7. UNCROWN

Eye for an eye. Desecrate
Day by day. Decontaminate
More and more. Retaliate
Liars, on pyres, on fire, on fire

Death in the shape of a faith
Stifling progress and pace
Now behold the tenets of fear, disappear

Doctrines begone
The hive undone
Codices burnt to ash

The glaive above
Hung by a thread
Is bound to fall and purge

Time to purify
Time to sanctify
Time to restore
Parity

Time for amends
Time for atonement
Time for absolution
Now

Strike down
Rain down
With vengeance
After ages of tyranny and exile

Come now, rejoice and revel
A crusade of clarity has begun
Uncrown and usurp the crest
The symbol of utter detestation

Rip and tear the manifest
Cleanse unholy scripture
Reject the commandments of folly
A new order is approaching


8. THE DEATH OF KINGS OF OLD

Time and time again
Demystified
Answers lies beyond
The crucified

Empires fallen
Crumbling in the dust
The death of kings of old
Eternally crushed

Time and time again
Vilified
Our will be done
You will abide

Tyrants fallen
Buried in the soil
Left to be forgotten
And despoiled

The return of folly
The rise of lunacy
Bewildering to lucid eyes

Regression upon us
Intellectual decline
Unmaking progress in its wake

Call to end the armistice
Cause and effect
Leniency is bygone
Rise to face the light

Not a call for vengeance
A call for amends
The affliction must be cured
With dignity and pride
Of the Ages


9. PYRES

In no uncertain terms; inherent in life is death.
This is all we know.
The wage of life is death.
Extinction is the rule.
Survival is the exception.
Cast aside the divine,
Pave your path with insight
Acquit and unshackle your mind.
Set the pyres of lies alight

No more shall pronouncements
Of eternal rewards corrupt us
Assertions from the cloth will
Break under the mallets of progression
Inconceivable, vacuous affirmations
Sprung from darker times

The wake-up call has come and gone
The time has come for us to quench the flames
Bringers of the fall
Authors of demise
Rejoice no more
The wake-up call has come and gone
The time has come for us to quench the flames
