no one upholds the golden soul no one pushing the stone aside no one healing the mind of the wicked there never was transfixed upon the cliffs of night looking down, heavy weight deliverance from all this thinking as we fall to the bottom, which is never enough the mirror provides a novel horror reflections revealed, faces removed these symbols beneath the heart’s floor stretching out across the vacant expanse an infinite field, a dark emptiness never steady, never content it a wreath of shame, a path to hell halo of blood, warped mouths agape a system upon the deadend faces illusions become food for the saints may the angels weep as the algorithm draws it down and still, no one loosens the stone no one fixed upon the cliffs of the sane looking down with heavy weight now the one thing left to do is drop you into the trash heap

Daystar 04:55
Reign of dread, angels spread out on the floor I watch them turn, I see them change Empty now, out here floating in the dark Free of the earth, between the waves You took these willing ghosts and raised them up on high You made a fragrant host and lit a funeral pyre You fixed a crystal mass and preached it out like god You stuff their heads with filth and charred their fractured minds there is a devil for all to know time; wicked ghost Drawn again, the meaning of life now gone Watch it burn, see it fail We’re empty now out there within the dark Amongst the patterns, between the waves You took these wanting hosts and set them all on fire You gave the flame its due and take us all apart You took a hopeless mass and preached it out like god You look upon the filth and watch as it burns Cosmic pariah, led them all to sleep Time is a wicked lord The wretched outcome awaits the bloated word Time is a wicked lord Born again in the apocalypse Now I float so far away Now I’m so far away Now I’m so far away Reign of dread, angels spread out on the floor I watch them turn, see them change Empty now out there floating in the dark Free of the earth, between the waves You took these willing hosts and raised them up on high You made a ritual and set it all on fire You made a crystal mass and put it onto you Grovel at their feet- hatred filling you

Graves 04:55
great heathens bound to the axis master calling, crimson his smiles pointed and narrow, condemned this anger, this power, severs the function falling into the gutter believer, given the rod bend to the master, sit in the doorway, under the halos. torment his path, this way we dance to the gallows nailed to the plank to the eager: your graves lay high on the hill may you stay dry when the floods come to the brave: your graves wait alone in distant lands but the soil there will welcome you to the holy: your graves adorned with ornate wood that will rot the same as you do the reaper stood upon the hill, a nest of man, each arm a cog in the wheel machine of flesh, throwing stones these witnesses, all present, all here all are nothing, here before the grave to the artist: beauty has no meaning in the grave you’re just feed for the worms to the decadent: you’ll take nothing with you to the grave no value where you’re going to the jester: your words means nothing, garbage all the same your laughter is hollow to the fool: you go blindly towards that center like a moth to the flame

Night Sect 08:56
the twilight hour, countdown to the end hollow pulses bring you to your feet the night it calls you to put the world to blame a broken chorus, measure taken the sky above folds on itself break the temple, tear through its heart as it tears through you bring them further apart a truer ethos, the darkness will follow the sky above you will fold into itself break the tyrant will bring them further apart the dead dream rising, for all our want of sleep within the symbols, all of us insane the angels crying, they serve a wicked host the sounds of hunger, the sounds of conquest the frigid cosmos wraps us up in night the drawn light fading, awake eternal fright
