Lyrics


1. WINTER SOLSTICE

"On this, the shortest day, equilibrium is broken.
The living entities have indulged too far into self-absorption,
thus condemning too many of us to eternal oblivion.
We shall weaken and therefore can no longer endure the massive pain caused by the demon forces of the dark.
Soon they will inflict pain to the weakest of us and make us the gateways to possession.
It's a true invasion... beware!"


2. NECROPOLITANS

"Anxiety spreads within the ethereal light.
Dark shadows are entering our realms,
waiting to attract the weakening souls of the ones who are being forgotten.
We have no means to defend ourselves.
It all comes down to the ones still alive"

We linger in the ocean of light,
the vast realm of the dead.
When you stop dreaming of us
we are truly gone.

We, the forgotten,
we'll be forgotten.

We're souls floating in the night
in the orgasmic light.
Except the ones with ill intent,
they await to possess
the spirits that depart the light.

We need a shelter from the storm
and empowering remembrance to stop
the ghastly demons from reaching transition.

We, the forsaken,
we'll be forsaken.

We're souls floating in the night
in the orgasmic light.
Except the ones with ill intent,
they await to possess
the spirits that depart the light.

In the crate of afterlife
we remain flooded in the light.

We're souls floating in the night
in the orgasmic light.
Except the ones with ill intent,
they await to possess
the spirits that depart the light.


3. DEMONDAY

"In the dim world of oblivion, grotesque pain is inflicted.
A soaring maelstrom of a universe of agony"

They take control of your mind,
they make you burn inside.
When losing will to fight they
tempt you with the light.

Flame invasion,
pain sensatíon.

They target the weak when entering your world,
they unleash the lust to horrify through pain.
Capturing their host to annihilate the self and it
is all caused by the burning pain.

Because you forgot my name!

Pacified, you're now the agent
which they use to penetrate,
through the pinpoints of life that
the portals instigate.

Demonday, forging hate,
come to me, l await.
Demonday, forging hate,
come to me, l await.

Transitional mind-control,
fire-feeding like a curse from hell.
Nerve ends aflame at all tìmes,
volcanic eruptions of pain, pain, pain.

They target the weak when entering your world,
they unleash the lust to horrify through pain.
Capturing their host to annihilate the self and it
is all caused by the burning pain.

Because you forgot my name!

Demonday, forging hate,
come to me, l await.
Demonday, forging hate,
come to me, l await.


4. ANGEL OF THE SPRING

"The beauty of spring shall abate.
I awake through the intake of your water.
Newborn, demonized, death awaits you"

I hear the whispers from the soil,
calling from the gates of the unknown.
I'm entering our world through the oil
from all the crops you have sown.

Whispering, answering!

I fade inside, pushed aside, I die inside,
cast aside, I'm frozen inside.
Tormented in Hell-stasis forever,
I am your demon today.

I drink the water from the fountains,
I drain your heart and fill your every nerve.
I swallow the red of the bloodcicles
and dripping with your precious verve.

Whispering, answering!

I fade inside, pushed aside, I die inside,
cast aside, I'm frozen inside.
Tormented in Hell-stasis forever,
I am your demon today.

It is in the water you drink, my dear!

I fade inside, pushed aside, I die inside,
cast aside, I'm frozen inside.
Tormented in Hell-stasis forever,
I am your demon today.


5. GOLEM SAPIENS

"l am through! I finally weakened a diminishing floating spirit.
The human drank the water, it ate the land. I am through, I shall wreak havoc!"

Am I to blame that she was at the wrong place at the wrong time,
I don't really know if l'd survive a meeting with myself.
All senseless babble is my newsfeed through your cloud of words,
set me free so I may kill, so I may kill agaín.

Life means nothing,
life is not precious.
We all go down the
same path anyway.

Why would I spare her, I am not even being spared myself,
nobody lives forever, we might as well get you out of here.
Give me the chance and I'll rip your heart to shreds in a
violent act so brutal that life means nothing.

Life means nothing,
life is not precious.
We all go down the
same path anyway.

We are all collateral,
We are all disposable.

I feel invigorated, I feel instigated at the
prospect of adding mayhem
to my legacy, at the pleasure of leaving
destruction in my wake.

Jeopardizing my integrity, jeopardizing the very
fabric that has woven my existence.
When the emperor's new clothes is not enough and you
take the step from "want to" to "will do".

The repulsion, the whole repulsion
and nothing but repulsion.
The hate, the hate, the whole hate
and nothing but hate.

The end, the whole end
and nothing but the end!

Am I to blame for the weakness of the human flesh,
fragility obstructing the paths of survival.
I only free the world of the weak of the herd,
consider it as my gift to you all.

Life means nothing,
we all go down the
same path anyway.

We are all collateral,
We are all disposable.
We are all collateral,
We are all disposable.


6. MYCELIUM

"Portals are opening, the entrance to your world. You eat the land,
you drink the blood of the planet and we roam consequently"

You see barren land,
I see sites of occurrence by
possessing another light-soul
due to your non-remembrance.

Coiling the roots for a massive grip,
transporting liquid to fatten our juices.
Symbiotic sugar exchange just to spread
ourselves and open the ways of darkness.

Portals,
mycelium is omnipresent.
Portals,
everlasting incandescent.

Portals,
our path to domination.
Portals,
the darkened way to true possession.

Branching out,
intertwined from here to forever.
Non-separable filaments and the fruits
are the gateways through which we came.

It is in the mushrooms you eat, my darling!

Portals,
mycelium is omnipresent.
Portals,
everlasting incandescent.

Portals,
our path to domination.
Portals,
the darkened way to true possession.


7. BEAST OF THE FALL

"It is innocent, the human is innocent.
I am darkness, I am within the flesh, it gives in!"

I'm pushing the boundaries of ferociousness,
an ever increasing test of the endurance.
Continuing acts of sublime deconstruction awaits,
the weakness of the brittle human flesh.

So I uncreate the twilight of your existence,
Invoking death, madness and mayhem.
Inflicting sorrow and sadness against my will,
involuntary agent of elimination.

I am not to blame, a pawn in an evil game,
used for this matter of the dark.

I'm melting the walls of failing resistance,
an ever increasing hostility awaken to be.
Slowly absorbing your mind and your heart
and your soul, polluting all that is you.

Soaring in lunacy!

Shrieking, radiating archangel with
apocalyptic horrific resonance.
Burning from within to pave the way
for them to enter your realm.

I am not to blame, a pawn in an evil game,
used for this matter of the dark.
I am not to blame, a pawn in an evil game,
used for this matter of the dark.


8. EQUINOX

"Rain, decomposing, pain, wither, beauty, soil, gateways, rot, invasion, evil"


9. MEMENTOPOLIS

"Fear has spread within the ethereal light.
The shadows are taking over at a frightening speed.
You must understand the rules of play, but how can we enlighten you when we can't connect?
Defend us, defend yourselves..."

We connect to all living,
we destroy if we decide so.
We invade your filthy world
and possess you from below.

We'll be souls roaming in the dark,
we burn in the eternal flame, forgotten ones.

Controlling every nerve
and every muscle you twist.
You move only as we want,
your mind clogged in a mist.

We'll be souls roaming in the dark,
we burn in the eternal flame, forgotten ones.

Forget us, sacrilege,
recall our names, heritage.
You decide who lives and who dies
and who will come back to haunt you.

Mementopolis!

In the crate of afterlife
we remain dreading in fright!

We're grinding at the floating
barriers of light in which you hide.
Resistance is futile, all in vain,
we'll dominate the world in which you died.

We'll be souls roaming in the dark,
we burn in the eternal flame and we feel
nothing and feel everything anyway.

Forget us, sacrilege,
recall our names, heritage.
You decide who lives and who dies
and who will come back to haunt you.

Mementopolis!


10. DIA DE LOS MUERTOS

"The task is simple: Remember your ancestors or perish.
You call it Obon, Halloween, Pitru Paksha and other man-made names.
It all comes down to the same: The day of the dead!"

In your color illuminated world
you all feel the ecstasy of life.
If you care never to forget you'll
ensure there'll be no regret.

Insufficiency, in remembering
we fade away again, spirits dying when...

When I stop dreaming of you,
you are truly gone.
When I stop dreaming of you,
you are truly gone.

Until you experience the epiphany of understanding
where we lay and understanding the rites,
evil shall continue to rule the day.

Insufficiency, in remembering
we fade away again, spirits dying when...

When I stop dreaming of you,
you are truly gone.
When I stop dreaming of you,
you are truly gone.

Mask up and take to the streets,
today we shall remember.
Celebrating life in celebrating death,
all rejoice on this.

The day of the dead!

So remember before it's too late,
help decide your own fate.
If demons are allowed to roam free,
humanity shall cease to be.

Insufficiency, in remembering
we fade away again, spirits dying when...

When I stop dreaming of you,
you are truly gone.
When I stop dreaming of you,
you are truly gone.

Mask up and take to the streets,
today we shall remember.
Celebrating life in celebrating death,
all rejoice on this.

The day of the dead!
