1. UNSTOPPABLE

Freeze the lightning
Pause the thunder
Stare then rewind
Bloom again
These messiahs of destruction damn the faithless shadow men
How can i feel sorry for you?
How can you not see this end?
If you'd read the authors i've read,
You'd see why i can't pretend
Unstoppable
Unavoidable
Matter of time
Unthinkable
Unbelievable
So cry the blind
There's a science to prediction
Odds collapsing into fate
if we descend underground
Live to one day live again
Stillborn as a new religion
Disbelieved before it's born
I believe this has to happen
I'll survive to save you all


2. AHRRISS THE WIZARD

Cryptic incantations churn behind the eyes
Needling the spiral, spellbooks in disguise
Smoking in the half-light, tugging on his beard
Conjured apparition, cast and disappeared
Splinters of a wracked wand circumscribe the ground
Potions of devotion, fire pouring down
Casting via gesture, spelling without words
Summoning commotion
Rolling fourths and thirds
Alive in this world of symbol and phrase,
Ahrriss the wizard holds you in his sway


3. ANIMALS OF ROMANCE

Lies
Harmless lies to seduce and construe
Truth is the last thing that i want from you
Ask for it, plead for it, beg me to do those secret things that we shared in our youth
Some little pain, first it hurts then it's good
Drives us insane like i knew that it would
Hard, realized, in control, in a trance
Die synchronized
Animals of romance
Fill every hole
Forcing inside
Out of control
Flawed by design
Climax of roles
Less than the sum
Coming to go
Going to come


4. STRAY DEMON

I'm falling backwards into history
Disprove the future from the past
Slaughtering nations with impunity
All I survey is mine at last
I topple mountain ranges
Stretch forth my hand and boil the seas
Did God intend me a mass-murderer?
Theodicy's most awesome test
Am I not proof of heaven's apathy?
Or am I God made manifest?
No mercy, no forgiveness
Humanity's abandonment
I despise your lives
Angels will punish me for centuries
My immortality is safe
I'll be reviled for all eternity
He who deformed the human race
They'll speak my name in whispers
But curse their maker for their pain
I despise your lives


5. HIDDEN WITCH

A hidden switch is flipped
A nerve has bitten down
A permanent alarm
A static piercing sound
Inverted pedal tone
Infuriating noise
Interminable climax
Instills what it destroys
Can't say that you weren't warned
A warning you ignored
The cost of all that volume
Is silence nevermore
