Barren Earth 05:17
Cast into fire Result of neverending strife Host turned occupier A despicable way of life Born to defile Slowly becoming undone Born to defile Raze all under the sun Self-annihilation I trust only the rule of one Self-annihilation Road to uncreation Humanity is beset No way to evade themselves Onset of the great reset Writhe, you witless worms You! Are spineless. The spineless live, in persistant fear of the righteous. For they will be exposed. Leave this woeful world In search of a better tomorrow Your path will be met With strife and sorrow A ravenous hate in me The same consumed you Judgement has arrived The worm has been condemned The mind has been deprived The body has been spent Barren earth You must escape Cosmic depths Now you will tread The void calls to thee.

Turn tail Flee this vile force Shimmering trail Through starlit paths we Course Stalked like prey Tread The path foreseen Lorn Cast away Tread Across the darkest plain Deranged shapes fuse Sanity is of no use Course Stalked like prey We tread The path foreseen Lorn Cast Away We tread Across the cosmic sea The glistening tide calls to thee The sea will set you free Spiraling figures above Void of the great dark below Shine the primordial waters Of which, we're made of Swallowed By the Great Dark Engulfed We embark Escape The crippling grip of the void Face The churning primordial sea The celestial waters still remain This luminous zenith, we will attain Drowning in the waters of aeons We are nothing but peons This is a force above all man The true escape, has just begun

Gripping, paralyzing fear The point of no return is near Outcries, hollow and frail Masked by the cryptic veil Into The unavoidable threat we pace Before you The devouring takes place World Eaters Crushing Matter All-consuming, infinite source of an inexorable force Glooming, piercing the veil all that is left is to wail Colliding With this monumental power Dividing As the earthborn cower Cowards Caught in the crushing grip All mass is pulverized Life begins to transmit Body and soul, liquified Matter reconfigured We breathe a new life But the air we breathe Is not ours As we descend From the stars Breaching the firmament Our escape is near Burning Freezing Frost Biting We Live But at what cost Centuries have passed How much longer will it last This suffering Lashed By A thousand Whips Help us Follow the forsaken course Follow the forsaken course

Awaken In lifeless fields Forsaken Is the spirit that yields Seems that we are condemned And reached our journey's end It's the final facet To die out on this planet Onward Helpless we march March with detriment Ignore the pain It is predestinate End of our reign Way of suffering Way we adopt now An evil slumbering Present around now Forgo Approaching The Monolith Dare to die Aura Of dread Dare to defy Approach The Monolith Enter The maze of death Appalled We have lost all trace Broken For the end we brace Endure the anguish of this horrid place A sacrifice to seal all of our fates Foregone are the ways of our cursed race We survived the trial A sacrifice, a revival

Catharsis 08:06
A new dawn The warm light of a dwindling sun End of turmoil Bring life back to this desolate soil Remember the sea The glimmering force that called to thee Act upon A new dawn strength is drawn Repent We lament the past with true remorse This troubled concourse Rebirth We shall harvest the flame The right of life we reclaim Progress The cleansing of the soul comes with a toll Vision Made of dreams and resolute decision Repent We lament the past with true remorse This troubled concourse Rebirth We shall harvest the flame The right of life we reclaim Honor The heirlooms The past Shows ways ahead Future, uncertain Life, a burden Hollow A voice from above Frail The empyrean brought down Fall down on me Purified Progress personified The stars are aligned Fall around me
