1.
Rituals of movement barely defined by logic Solitude in the false light of agreed upon delusion Hallucinations plague the beholders eyes Weakness of framework is evident everywhere When I die, I embrace the void I long for the darkness The endless forever When I die, there will be no more nonsense No more walking masks No more of this shit The frail façade of human life Weak displays of selfish love Gray light illuminates the foul Pretending you’re not the waste of flesh you are

Echthros 05:21
Beyond Comparison Beneath all motive Come from the darkness Devourer It resonates fear within Feel the presence here Ancient abomination Adversary Beyond understanding You can never comprehend Gods fear what they cannot control A powerful darkness, cruelty manifest Black entity of terrible power No man can stop you Power forever Endless darkness Born of the void Echthros Sight of horror Detroys resolve Vicious Nightmare Echthros It defies all reason Burning the strong Like paper in the wind Unstoppable Made from material never seen Glowing eyes betray Infernal malice Unkillable Greed and gluttony cloud the minds Insidious invasion of weakness The apex predator Born out of oblivion

What light is left is fading Darkness bathes the night Delicious smoke blown from candles Making tendrils unseen An unbent knee here for no man The air vibrates with power Cold as ice her presence seeps in Dark mother of the void The fragile paradigm Dance so briefly In the black of the under She’ll take you home As your final breath Rattles deep within your chest You will come to understand The embrace of darkness As your physical self dies Your body deep beneath the ground You will rejoin the void Guided by the mother of darkness You may have prayed to the god of light But there is no light here You may have prayed to the god of life But there is no life here You may have found some hope in faith But hope means nothing now You may have assumed your salvation But we all rejoin the void

Our world is run by an elite few Selfish garbage, out of touch with life Horrible atrocities they commit every day And now more than ever they’re only in our way Bring back the guillotine Bring them to their knees We’ve suffered far too long As they do as they please Bring them out, bring them forth To the chopping block Bring them out to answer for their crimes Bring them out, bring them forth Their time has come and gone And now it’s time for them to die Don’t think for a second that any of this is wrong Dying oceans, poison air just to keep them rich They could end the world’s problems in an instant They just choose not to, and now they shall pay
5.
The nectar of enlightenment Opening lost eyes Further thorough immersion Causing transformation The merging of consciousness Becoming a merging of form Opening a path Never meant to be opened Though terrible to behold No one knows where they go A path to another world Or just a mouth unto death And across the eons she waits Malevolent god of unknown creation Existing through dimensions She brings her will across time The future rests on the brink Invasion through the sleepers domain Ever come the dreams, death awaits Above the highest power, the end already assured One day they went away They did not return And in their place a monstrosity An abomination, my companion It calls itself mother Is it alive, or is it dead Looking out through horse eyes And the voice made of millions of insects
6.
Deny to yourself that the predator exists Humankind is not the top, it’s barely even middle They exist just out of phase, on the currents of the ether Waiting for fear, pain, and panic to draw them in Nameless and horrible, striking from the shadows The jackals of the fifth dimension, waiting for prey Devouring those who find misfortune And what remains is left screaming in the dark They cannot be destroyed They cannot be deterred They’re coming The smell the blood in the water
7.
8.
Loss Grief that knows no ending Time Bleakly grinding forward Ending I die alone and cold The decay seeps in But still I’m aware My blood dries My skin rots The gray I have become Neither here or gone A specter of my former self Lost in between
