Black Wave

In the hourglass of space and time
Grains of stars siphon
Scrolls foretold of moon and sun
Embracing bliss
Endless moments drift into decay
Leading us to this day of doomsday
Privileged at the sight, you know where you stand
The Black Wave judges not
Black Wave
Black Wave
Gaze your eyes into haunted skies
The darkness dances before you
The ring of death showers its gift
A golden aura of the abyss
The silent shadow stalks its prey
Enticed by its glorious glare
Fueled by a sense of hope and desire
The black mist smothers the light
Everyone fleeing, screaming, and pleading
Not even seeing how death is so revealing!
“I am the Black Wave, Extinguisher of Light
I persist towards endless night!”
Your sacred life cannot escape this solar plague
It matters not to the Black Wave

Communion
03:53

So, when I reach the edge of infinity
Will the universe bend to my affinity?
At the end of all space and time
Is there a wall that ends it all that I must climb?
Galaxies so long and stretching so far
This nebula I must conquer for the bizarre
I seek the ones that created this plane
So, I demand to know what’s next for me to gain!
End of time, end of flow
As above, so below
End of days, end of phase
Commune with me through my gaze
Infinite expansion of thoughts in my mind
Perception and insights finally aligned
Relay communion given as a key
I speak to you, truth, given to me
End of time, end of flow
As above, so below
End of days, end of phase
Commune with me in my ways
End of time, end of flow
As above, so below
End of days, end of phase
Commune with me through my gaze

Enantiodromia

|
I feel my opposite breaching
Darkness emerges from my essence
Mindful war on the horizon
Eater of light from within me
To keep light is to cast a shadow
Without the dark, color has no depth
Dominating my conscious will
The shadow self does haunt me
I feel the embrace of integration
An archetype approaching completion
To overthrow this grim opposition
Dark is a path I must wander
To keep light is to cast a shadow
Without the dark, color has no depth
Dominating my conscious will
The shadow self will break free
To keep light is to cast a shadow
Without the dark, color has no depth
Dominating my conscious will
The shadow self was always me

Temporal Storm
04:01
|
|||
|
When the storm cracks the sky
Memories fade
When the surge guides the change
Destiny strays
Flash of the light bright and cold
Sands of the past become whole
A house of glass shelters the soul
A single stone shapes the old
When the past starts to lie
Dynasties rust
When this day looks so strange
Anarchy lusts
Flash of the light bright and cold
Sands of the past become whole
A house of glass shelters the soul
A single stone shapes the old
Flash of the light bright and cold
Sands of the past become whole
A house of glass shelters the soul
A single stone shapes the old
A house of glass shelters the past
And I will throw that stone
A house of glass sheltered the past
And I threw that stone
I threw that stone!

Cult of the Fading Sun
04:38
|

|
We are at the dawn of an existential crisis
We can only now resolve our hubris
Veins of stars, orbit dissolution
Follow the Cult of the Fading Sun to absolution
Fuel of life drained from the core
And a sun fades once more
Guide us, Cult of the Fading Sun
Show us your fear
Teach us, Cult of the Fading Sun
Free us from fear
We have reached the end of a stellar evolution
Grim red giants, a billion years pollution
Chains of reactions, cosmic dissipations
Out of breath, the end of planetary nations
Fuel of life drained from the core
There will be no last war
Guide us, Cult of the Fading Sun
Show us your fear
Teach us, Cult of the Fading Sun
Free us from fear
Show us your fear
Free us from fear
Lead us from fear
We have no fear!
Fuel of life drained from the core
To the Cult, we call for
Guide us, Cult of the Fading Sun
Show us your fear
Teach us, Cult of the Fading Sun
Free us from fear
Bear us, Cult of the Fading Sun
Lead us from fear
Save us, Cult of the Fading Sun
We have no fear

Presence
03:39
|
|||
|
Stalked in the dark and by broad daylight
Hope is a crutch that’s held on too tight
I feel something by my bed
Is this presence only in my head?
This stranger brings me dread
Does this presence want me dead?
Are you real?
Are you?
Lone in my fight, I succumb to fright
Invasive thoughts of dreading the night
I feel something in my bed
Is this presence living in my head?
This stranger brings real dread
Does this presence need me dead?
Something watches me
(Something watches me)
Someone haunts me
What do you want?
(What do you want?)
Please tell me!
I felt something in my bed
Is this presence finished with my head?
This stranger brought me dread
This presence wants me dead!

The Great Astral Theatre

Through the doors of The Great Astral Theatre
Endless gather as mortal witness
Savor the night in secret pleasure
Giving pause to the dreamlike madness
On the plane of The Great Astral Theatre
Timelines converge in cosmic rituals
Chaos is bred in perfect order
Giving birth to the boundless spiritual
On the stage of The Great Astral Theatre
Unknowns lift the ceaseless veil
Playing the parts of the first to suffer
Giving might to the silent servants
On the plane of The Great Astral Theatre
Timelines converge in cosmic rituals
Chaos is bred in perfect order
Giving birth to the boundless spiritual
With no intervention
Everything was
In the depths of The Great Astral Theatre
Here they came to claim us from our damnation
Past, present and future
Then they came to frame the birth of all creation
