KOMMODUS

1. EMERGING FROM SERPENTS NEST

*Overcoming demons within, arising stronger from the struggle.*

Forget the nights spent wading amongst serpents
Poisoned and constricted in harvested body and soul
Claw up from the ophidian pit and expunge the venom within
Conqueror of enemies, an unyielding force and spirit

Shattered faith and perception littered on the floor
Reassemble a fresh mosaic and open the stone door

Drown out the spurious whispers which writhe and hiss
Discard the keloid lens, overgrown scar tissue and trauma
Sever the heads of the hydra which extend to every facet
Let it all go, fill the chasm with an impenetrable laughter

Now bearing trophies of your kill, testaments to all your pain
Donning an armour draped and decorated with scales of thine slain

Persevere forward
Emancipated now
Call none thy liege
Unbreakable


BURIER

2. ROT, SCALE & ICHOR

Crawling from the boneyards
Through skulls and broken ribcages
Gleaming eyes piercing fog and smoke
Fork tongue does taste blood on the air

Waiting
Seething
Emerging from slithering shadows
The reek of the venomous serpentine rot

Fangs that puncture the flesh
Fear causes the poison to surge
Scale follows scale
Encircle the now wounded prey

Ichor woven intravenous
Let the blackened life force flow
No longer weakened futile hope
Grip the jagged blade of steel

Silver slashing beast asunder
Pushing through the burning pain
Transmuting thaumaturgical
Cast back the writhing adversary
