1. THE HEXED ENIGMA


Boiling arsenic casting out a map
Engraving direction
Forward, backward spiraling straight to hell

Straight ahead
The culmination of my thoughts
Antiquities
Holding secrets of the ancient arts

It awaits
In silhouette crossing shades
Beneath the lies
A vulgar glimpse of scars demised

A crave, belonging to the dead
Aflame, my skin blisters
My eyes roll back
The hex is taking me under

Ruins shaping relic days
Arising is the end
Shattered distance

Stillborn plague
Behold discernment now
Acrid crowd
Consume my flesh and holster your spirit

Scorched assent
Guide me to your source
Prophecies
Lead the way to dissolution

Cold figures gasp a breath
Moving in choreographed rhythms
Words bounce wall to wall
It's the smell of death they bring

Blackest might to the stealth of beauty
Conceal your arrangements to me
Plans are now past resurrections

Perished by the hexed enigma
Omens murmur hypnosis once again



2. WHITE WINDS


Needles pour heat
Injecting straight to my lungs
Jitter and shake and tremble and fret
Adrenaline the drug of choice

Breathe in deep and find
Is this the edge to the knife
This pierce, it spreads
A wound of acid in flesh

And all will turn to dust
Yet season still show life
But still the cold of white winds
Covers us in frost
I feel almost suppressed
And undaunted in cold
Kneeling strained and broken
I have nothing left to hold

Pause to see
That persona of a man
Is nothing but an empty shell
For all to witness and be

And time will fade away
Reversed by the hourglass
Tonight, it spreads
Wait for the undying breath

Here among the insane
All that is left to receive
Is blame and hate
Watch me as I'm torn apart

And all will turn to dust
Yet season still show life
But still the cold of white winds
Covers us in frost
I feel almost suppressed
And undaunted in cold
I pray to be released
So swiftly it shall be one



3. SHOCK THOUSAND


Shadow screams, echoed mountain calls
Lost in translation, too lost in tone

Slash the skies and watch them bleed
The morphemes unwritten
Still, still not received

Layers of fraying code
Kinetically, entwined
Bypassed by the stars

Awakening sin, cloaked in deceit
Spiraling malice, webs of my haven
Ritual becomes the curse

This razor scraping my back
Enchanting whispers retold
My veins kindled with fire
The poison feeds me the lies
Shock thousand righteous unknown
The sky, the twilight of pain
Enchanting yet mendacious insight
Memory the only constant I see

I bleach the sky with the tips
Concealing this horrid face
Angelic disfigurement
Tracking back through the darkness

Launch through a new reality
Problematic and avenging
Reaction is truth annexing
The element of pain and suffering
