A parasite adorns the globe
Her tendrilled children spread a web across the earth
Build a seat of all your subjects bones
Light the way through pyres to fallen culture
We will fight for you
Spill our brothers blood in your name
We will die for you
Your enemies shall bleed the same
And when the world is dust and ruin
Only the strong will remain.
Winds will ravage the world of men
Great fires wash their stain from the world
Children drown in the deeping torrent
Like fleas clinging to the corpse of god
We will drink black wine to you
And toast the fall of craven kings
And when the world is dust and ruin
The cleansing can begin

The Door of Truth

The death of the soul is worse than the death of the flesh
It carries a chill that can not find rest in faith
Our lord ushers me into his humble grace
To pour upon me the sum total of his hate
I bathe within the puss of his lies
And in his sight I’m anewed and arise
Beelzebub, the Lord of The Flies
Opens the truth of the world before my eyes
I am now, as I was before
All I can do is show you the door

I carry all my sins inside the box that’s draped around my neck
I’d failed a thousand times and will a thousand more I should expect
I walk across the plains of torture and of self destructive pain
The pleasures of the flesh devices meant to torture me again
I was a passenger within the bones of those who make a stand
I will be bathed in blood and righteously will rule across the land
The suffering visited on me I return a hundredfold
I am the coming of the final days long ago foretold
Endless falling
Into the night never stalling
Hopeless crawling
Wretched and lost hear them calling
Born to perish
Finite existence to cherish
I am greater
I am the god’s chosen savour
You pay your tithe to me and I will grand you refuge on the hill
The blood of infidels will wash away the sins of all our ilk
A heavy price to pay for man to take the place of all the gods
A planet made of clay to shape and build to suit our many wants
I take my leave now leave one truth for you to carry forth
The sanctity of life and worth of every man still has a cost
I pay it gladly to return upon the desert I have wrought
A humble innocent to built a refuge high upon the rocks
I’m every truth and every lie
I’m all you love that slowly dies

Craven words dressed in a cloak of denial
Perverted thoughts of a mind so vile
What a noble foe to make of a child
Target the weak as they die in their droves
Safe from the comfort of a gilded throne
Crushing a life that steps outside of your mold
Live in fear
Drown in hate
Shield with one hand with the other molest
Silence the voices of those who dissent
Every accusation is a mirrored confession
Live in fear
Drown in hate

Séasúr na Bás

My body is a temple to suffering
Unholy walls surrounding me echo my screams
Death journeyed here upon the fleating winds
And now the genocide of my people begins
They lock us in their walls
And cart us off in boxes
They feed us lies
And steal our food
The capital machine
Never stops revolving
No sustenance to give
When millions are starving
Hunger eats into my souls
Greed and hate the bodies pailed untold
The act that stains a man, they view us not as people
There is no god who’s breath he’d hold.
Still living wraiths of men
Entombed in greed of empire
Robbing food from children’s mouths
To keep the coffins fed
Convert or die
Laying waisted on the beaten roads
All aid refused
The Queen is fine with her rule
Hunger eats into my souls
Greed and hate the bodies pailed untold
The act that stains a man, they view us not as people
There is no god who’s breath he’d hold.
Hunger eats into my souls
Greed and hate the bodies pailed untold
The act that stains a man, they view us not as people
There is no god who’d sit and stare
