Night fall Beginning of eons I knew not then Endless Centuries now stretch behind me Nameless Land of origin long forgotten Ageless Here I will walk forever But oh how the mind twists after hundreds of years Everything gone that you ever recognized No trace of yourself, no trace of anything else Hollow world that you don’t care to know Ignorant frail ones hunt for this curse To understand and become the undead But if they knew the cost of true immortality They would run screaming, never looking back Don’t mistake madness for weakness Here in forever, it means nothing to kill Wearing the shoes of a man Do not walk in the footsteps of gods

No Escape 04:27
Wretched and diseased Animated infection Filthy squalor petulance Rotting squealing decaying Assumed superiority Unfounded assumption The unholiest abomination Is mankind itself Move through the motions Of your manufactured world Staring into the eyes of oblivion There is no escaping what I am There is no escaping what you are Follow the rituals Of your enslavement Follow the gods you chose Work until you die
3.
Dragged from my home Family slaughtered Taken to the torture grounds Tied to the wheel I'll die tonight Tortured to death by dislocation Because I would not convert I will suffer pain unimaginable Agony racks my fear soaked mind For my beliefs I will die First I am flogged With a cat of nine tails Asked if I will confess Burning coals then Sear my flesh I will not confess We've reached the end now I'm tied to the wheel The final step of my demise With every crank My bones snap I scream, no sound comes out
4.
Dwelling in infinite darkness Don’t believe in the lie of light Just shut your eyes to the obvious Spinning in chaos forever Bathed in radiation storms Your life an eye blink in time Scuttling around like rats On a sinking ship at sea You’re going to die, it’s already written And in 100 years No one will remember you Just dust and gone Stare into the eyes of oblivion Gaze in horror at what you have in wait Stare into the eyes of madness See your future in the absence Stare into the eyes of oblivion Haunted by things you cannot change Run and hide in fear After all you’re just a rat under a rug Man in his stupidity and arrogance Meddling with things he cannot control A false act made in weakness Spiraling into the hungry dark Blessed are the watchful For they are rewarded And damned are the foolish To reap their folly
5.
Forward March the forces of conquest Further Fighting the war to end all others Nightmare This hellish war machine Forever Changing the face of the world Weapons not their only tool The siege is redefined To use famine to wipe out millions Cutting off the farmlands From the young and old Leaving them to starve in the cold Onward On their ridiculous crusade Masters They think themselves above all others Mindless Feeding their sons into the machine Genocide Is just another day
6.
Open the schism between dimensions Open the world of pain Anguish and agony devoid of all hope Each moment an eternity afresh Render unto demon gods Such sweet suffering divine Tear you apart again and again Your torment will not end Hooked chain tear into you and bring eternal death We have an eternity to know your flesh To seek the unknown To seek what lies beneath To find the threshold And gaze beyond Too late to stop now Too late to just go back Open the door Give yourself Previous concepts of madness Have no presence here The slicing blades and screams of pain Go on without end Never an exquisite ounce of suffering Ever goes to waste Fallen into the mouth of hell And it’s savoring the taste Goodbye to your life on earth Goodbye former self Cast into the depths of sorrow Forever you shall dwell
7.
Cold inside the corners of the depths of your mind But my voice is the loudest in the dark Wicked thoughts and deep desires whispering your doom I know your every weakness every fear locked away You have no secrets Nothing you can hide I exist in your subconscious I am your evil mind There is nowhere you can run I am your shadow self Locked deep within you There is no peace here Walking through the day like some animated corpse Going through the motions of every cold moment But try as you might to pretend I don’t exist, here I am Waiting to come screaming like a banshee from the shadows You cannot kill me I will not die Unless you put the gun between your lips

The curvature of flesh delights the eye and makes a hold Heightened senses malleable, so hard to keep control Don’t play coy with me you silly bitch, you know exactly as you do You steer the brutes with between your legs, gives you a vicious grip Created or chanced with inborn frailty, slaves to our shells Each one with deficient weakness, each one with personal hells So many seek a higher meaning caused by witnessed base desires They cannot bear to think that they’re rubbed out just like weak little fires Death is a certainty for all of us Thrust upon us before many are ready Forced to fall and to end up in rot Puny life snuffed out, puppet strings cut And your delusions aren’t getting you anywhere All you’re accomplishing is pissing me off You’re a sack of fluids and bones with an expiration date Just a pig making noise about how you’re so important
