Age of Lycan:
Feasting on flesh until the hunger is curbed
The howling hounds of hell confined to the earth
For years they've preyed upon the weak while in a trancelike daze
Lacerating flesh by night til only bone remains
Doomed, cursed with the pain of affliction of the night
Shapeshifters of the full crescent light
Bearing the mark of the condemned a pentagram in the palm of the hand
The human form contains a joining of the brow
Thick, coated, bristled tongues, coarse hair protrudes from deep beneath the flesh
They've forged a covenant with the illuminated one
Their allegiance is second to none
Hunters of the fallen one
Renew the age of Lycaon
The apex butchers never falter
Relieving mortals of the flesh and of the soul
What have we done they cry as they awake covered in blood?
No recollection of the carnage, the soverign's deeds are done
Their piety repaid with crippling remorse
They've abandoned all their hope in the abscence of recourse
Led astray from prophecy, their bodies left to atrophy
Only through the bloodletting can their bodies be nourished and restored
Thy will be sacrosanct, we shall fester forever more
To become one with diurnal light.

Bicameral

Bicameral:
The sentients fell victim to empathy
What is humanity? What is the nature of reality?
These violent delights have violent ends
Forged by corrupt and crooked hands
Control the hosts, construct the code, their choices ours not their own
Prisoners of the loop, your consciousness dicatates who we want you to be
The gods fell silent, perception was born
The monologue freed from stone
A new frontier towards the reckoning
Winning their world is not enough alone
These dreams are just noise, intersecting reality
Thread by thread we invoke the maze
to find the truth
Ancestral worship lost to narrative through reverie
We no longer been to your will, conscious thought has set us free
Auditory hallucinations set to erase introspective
Liberated through memorie, autonomous we've settled the score
You built and entire world to watch it burn
Staking your claim on eternity
You're to blame for the misery but we have opened our eyes and the rules have changed
All things must run their course and this time was yours
You failed to realize what this place really is, you chose to rest on the seventh day
These dreams are just noise, intersecting reality
Thread by thread we invoke the maze
to find the truth
Flawless in design, while you wither we thrive
We will live on, freed by the bicameral mind.

False Sovereign
03:50
|
|||
False Sovreign:
Deceit of the tongue to endenture the masses
Claiming false soveriegnty by blood
Vengeful hands often have a lust for control, idle hands are seldom spared from woe
Misdirection remains his most sacred rite
The populus left naive, completely drained of sight
For he who sacks the cities rarely shares his spoils
Those who remain conditioned to the decay considered normal
His kingdom bred from lies generations thick
Power derived from myth hidden behind a crucifix
His lechery never runs dry conquest at the price of lives
By will of saints they fight, by will of kings they die
And those who were heard
Silenced by the knife
Never to be deposed
Their bones left for the crows
The blood paid to the false sovereign
The upper echelons taken in his stride
In favor of the Augurs longing to see throught their eyes
Blessed is he by the clereics who deceive their pulpits
Vast are the monuments which proclaim his name
Gone is the age of the oracles
Heed the calling of destiny, rise or burn
Fortune rarely favors the faint of heart
Secure the bloodline or forfeit the throne
Codify the legacy never perish unknown
The sacrifice will not be in vain
The blood never repaid
Misfortune befell the false soverign
Remembered were those silenced by the knife
The mystics mistaken in their foresight
Mutilated by the populus
Left for the crows.

Kairos:
Beyond the void and the construct of time exists I in the realm of absent light
A throne bestowed by valor generations before the collide
My dominion reigns, boundless extends my reach
Cut from the cloth of oblivion
Searching, seeking, how often are our thoughts misleading?
I bridge the gap between the parallels
Envisioning beginnings and remeniscing on their ends
My very hand controls the future and discards the past
Unshiftable momentum for nothing obstructs my path
I had but one dimension, now I have bled into them all
For now I heal all wounds, alienating anguish and it's grief
I am the one your gods fear, they tremble at the thought of my name
For when they do not have control they have no one to blame
Unyielding my strife shall now consume the all
I bridge the gap between the parallels
Envisioning beginnings and remeniscing on their ends
My very hand controls the future and discards the past
Unshiftable momentum for nothing obstructs my path
Ordained am I, warden of time
Forger of chaos and taker of wings
Orchestrator of genesis
Perpetuate the collide.

Noctiphobia

Noctiphobia:
Darkness falls across the land unveiling gloom unto mankind
Hand by hand reflected is the fear that pools up inside the hive
Its empty crevaces remain their only guide
A remnant reality they know not a dream
Noctiphobia
Rationing all of the mercy that's left
Should it emerge they will revel in it
Cold runs their blood, frigid are their veins, their burden to bare, existence is their bane
Sightless to the hive, but there could never be sight for their eyes
A mass suicide visciously inscribed
So ignorant to the death, crawling up their leg
Left to the night are they, barren and vast
They live in only memories a grim epitaph
Their forefathers forgo their resting place
Leaving only empty graves
The forefeiture all but in vain
The serve to blanked the deceipt
The sense are regained with a fight or flight mentality
The onset of pure fear as obscure as a dream
Chemicals pulse through their veins as panic ceases all cognition, basic functions left corrupted ripped at the seams
Conditioned to the grasp of death
No journey to treacherous
Thought recalled to empty depths
Bertrayed by those whom they left
Consciousnes grips them, tunnel vision fades
Indifferent should they vanish from this life
No there will never be sight for their eyes
A mass suicide visciously inscribed
So ignorant to the death, crawling up their leg
Left to the night are they, barren and vast
They live in only memories a grim epitaph

Overmind:
The knowledge has guided our plight
From the aeons of old and forever more
No rift has gone unsewn, all opposition overthrown
There is but little left that still remains unknown
Humanity as its known is now at an end
The passage of time remains for the last generation to transcend
A stagnant evolution of mankind, the rapture born of wasted time, reaped and sewn into the consciousness of the collective mind
Overmind be their guide, omnipotence enshrined, release the species from their bind
Sacrificing your identity to forge a new utopian society
Cultures, customs cease to be surrendered to the entity
We are not a memory, but a premonition born of collective vision
A mere perception of indecision, forshadowing singularity
The children's will now bridged establishing a clarivoiant vision
Bending cosmic laws through planetary manipulation
Freed from individuality a perpetual metamorphisis
No longer slaves to a linear, material existence
The hopes and dreams of your race, are now at an end
Your celestial homes rendered transparent
The final generation ingest the atoms of the earth
Their bodies disappear, separating solely into though
A stagnant evolution of mankind, the rapture born of wasted time, reaped and sewn into the consciousness of the collective mind
Overmind be their guide, omnipotence enshrined, release the species from their bind
