Emergence

Engulfing infinite black
Sparks flicker and light the void
Galaxial thunder cracks
Primordial fire born
Engulfing infinite black (sparks flicker and light the void)
Galaxial thunder cracks
Primordial fire born
Planets formed by the hands of the makers
Your life is not a choice
A rock of greedy takers
Your death will be a gift
The star burns the stone
New species carve out their home
Landscapes carved by flesh and bone
A new species lays claim to the throne
Our disfigured mother strains to provide
As resources dwindle we kill to survive
Wars waged for profit
They leave a fiery wake
Waves of death wash over
We kill to survive
We kill to survive
This is judgement day on a continental scale
I’ve got an earthquake’s touch and the Devil’s grin
Nothing Left
A desolate crater
A smoldering stain scorched upon this rock
Forever lost in the history we wrote
When your gods come knocking I’ll make sure no one’s home
New life born in the rubble
I wish we hadn’t survived
We dig towards the light but the Watchers black the sky
With the weak washed away we’re forced to rebuild
We rest our heads on their ash and pray this new life won’t collapse

Eden
07:50

Nights no longer cold
Backs no longer bent
Hands no longer calloused
With nature as our slave
Cultivating masses
Our cities dim the stars
Fully formed intellection
So far from initial conception
Bring hammer to steel
Build an era through anguish
Flourish thrown upon us
With no known notion of collapse senses acute and woes fade
Absolution, a second chance
We’ll see what the masses are made of
Approaching a harmonic convergence of enlightenment
We’ve found our people’s existential parable
We are gods on ivory thrones
I am the unmaker
Sleepless pushing the boundaries
Burning candles at every end
Technological advances
Engage autopilot
We are now automata
Pull the power source and shut off
No person left with personality
The parasitic species drains their native land
Magma forms obsidian skin
Petros ichor courses their veins
This is not the utopia we’d hoped for
Unwise to the watchful eyes pulling the strings of demise
“Oh, woe is me” the masses scream
So far disconnected from veracity
Boiling under
Occluded by darkness
We are the Watchers’ false hope
Stone upon stone upon stone upon bone

Extinction
10:11

Fucked from square one
The event is imminent
Masses awake to the planet’s quake
This is true chaos
This is true pain
No one spared
No one saved
Beliefs turn to fear, fear to hysteria
Leaves you crippled like a shotgun to the knees
Madness consumes you, now watch the bodies rot
Light years away we watch in awe
Foreign stars hurled towards our home
Annihilation in their wake
Flames fertilize the heavens
As fires reach the sky
The star burns the stone
This is your hell
The surface cooks
Skin is liquidized
Buildings crumble
Homes collapse
This is the falling of the axe
A carpet of flesh
A portrait of death
Die in the flames
Waking monoliths
Brought forth by ignorance
Nothing left alive
Nothing left alive
Nothing left alive
Nothing fucking left alive
(panic)
...maybe they were watching all along
Wake up
Moons crash from the sky
The cities lift beneath our feet
Nothing will survive
Hurling vacant satellites through time
They seek the collapse of existence
Celestial warheads soar through space
Wasteland in their wake
There is fire on the horizon
The stench of death lingers in the streets
I gave you everything
Now watch it turn to ash
Death will always prevail
I will fucking erase you
I am the unmaker
Watch you beg from the grave
Void of life, your extinction
Waste of life
Bled dry by the leviathan’s will
Forever lost in the history we wrote
When your gods come knocking I’ll make sure no one’s home
