Discovery
Born in flames
A truth encaved
Has rendered wonder and provoked acclaim
From underneath
Risen up from the deep
A towering mystery of disbelief
I am intrigued
In this discovery
Breathing energy
Bound internally
Still and lifeless yet
Seeping entropy
Haunting mystery
Alluring secrecy
Keen obscurity
Something alive in me
(Alive inside)
Voices calling from an ancient cave
Darkness lit up from a primal flame
I feel an essence pull me into the void
I’ll follow cautiously, follow senses from my mind
There’s something alive inside
Breathing energy
Bound internally
Still and lifeless yet
Seeping entropy
Haunting mystery
Alluring secrecy
Keen obscurity
Something alive in me
(Alive inside)
And with virgin eyes, I see triumphs risen from stone
Did Foreign beings build temples to rest their souls?
Intimidation hides buried deep in my bones
Encrypting symbols we may not be here alone
Deep inside this temple, we feel the cryptic pain of life, sealed away inside these ruins holding our souls to still burn as we wait to die
Enter
Follow
Discover
Unearth
Deliver
Inside I am alive
Underneath this earth
I hear them calling me
They’re calling me to the depths
There’s something there inside those walls
There’s something breathing I can hear its call
I need to know if we’re not alone
I need to discover what’s underneath the stone

Monolith

Monolith
Into the darkness of this cave, I go
Onwards to glory, for a chance to prove my name
Entering oblivion, welcomed by the obscure
Voices calling from the depths an assertion of the dammed
Deeper and deeper in this temple I’ll go
To discover the unknown
I’m leaving behind all my doubts all my fears
And the ones that I hold dear
Tauntingly the whispers echo on walls of stone
Hauntingly the body will drift forward on its own
Entering this underworld my composure slips away
Somethings hiding in the depths waiting for its careless prey
Deeper and deeper in this temple I’ll go
To discover the unknown
I’m leaving behind all my doubts all my fears
And the ones that I hold dear
I’m following onward and into the deep
Something I thought my eyes wouldn’t see
No one to hold, no one to relieve
The fear in my heart I receive
Awaken the malice from within
An evil forged in vengeance
A hatred sealed away by spiteful forces
Mend severed nerves
Of an ancient mind designed for chaos
Restore the power to the kingdom of primordial gods
Deeper and deeper in this temple I’ll go
To discover the unknown
I’m leaving behind all my doubts all my fears
And the ones that I hold dear
Deeper and deeper in this temple I’ll go
Deeper and deeper in this temple I’ll go
Deeper and deeper in this temple I’ll go
Deeper and deeper in this temple I’ll go

The Deep

The Deep
Entering in the deep
I find myself in awe at what I see
Treasure abundant
A fortune that will favor every need
I know it’s wrong but
I see this vision in every dream
Destiny beckons
I hear it’s voice, I hear it calling me
I’ll brush the cobwebs away
Taking golden goblets from their place
Right next to corpses
That are rotting over growing colder
This graveyard of souls haunts me
I know my intrusion’s cursing me
I feel a difference in the air
There’s something pulling stronger, pulling me
(Whispers beckon the minds of fools)
Searching for treasure unfound
(They’re lured by wealth to a fate so cruel)
Destiny calling aloud
(Into the deep of the monolith)
Suspicion of deception
The temptation overwhelms my sensibility
Something doesn’t feel right in my bones
I know because I feel it’s presence coming after me
And in the cold air, I hear sounds like breathing
Somethings coming from the cracks inside the walls
I know it might just be my mind
After all this time it was me who I heard calling me
(Whispers beckon the minds of fools)
Searching for treasure unfound
(They’re lured by wealth to a fate so cruel)
Destiny calling aloud
(Into the deep of the monolith)
In to the deep, I will go
Searching for gold and treasure unfound
Discovering tombs and graves of ancients
As they guide the way, I’ll follow their maze
In to the deep, I will go
Searching for gold and treasure unfound
Discovering tombs and graves of ancients
As they guide the way, I’ll follow their maze
Into the deep, I will go searching for gold
Into the deep, I will go searching for gold
Destiny beckons me
Destiny beckons me

Darkness

Darkness
I am lost in this world
Lost in the heart lost in the deep lost in the dark
Darkness covers all light
Shrouded by fear veiled from inside, devoid of all life
Into the air it fades away
All of my hope, all of my sight
All that was bright
I am so empty, I suffer alone
I’m losing my mind
All on my own at the end of my rope
Surrounded in shadows
I’ll find a back home
I am lost in this world
Lost in the heart lost in the deep lost in the dark
Darkness covers all light
Shrouded by fear veiled from inside, devoid of all life
Daybreak, inept of change
Fades into night
Colors, radiance,
Fade from sight
Daybreak, inept of change
Fades into night
Colors, radiance,
Fade from sight

The Primordials' Gift

The Primordials' Gift:
Under the final twilight's glow
A new dawn
A strain to wield a legacy
A flight to the blue world
Gifted with foresight and a soul
Will they thrive or will they drown?
Now that their seed has reached our shore
We're not alone
From Proxima
To Sirius forge on
A virgin sun
So warm
Under an alien starlight glow
A new dawn
So much of life to be consumed
A hunger grows inside
Staring into the future's eyes
Will we lose control of earth?
They will lead us to ruin
Of our own home
A hunger grows
Their minds live as one
This world is theirs
To own
To mold
Follow
Into darkness hold me now
Follow
Into darkness hold me now
Follow
Into darkness hold me now
Follow
(We raise the monolith
We raise the monolith)
From Proxima
To Sirius forge on
A virgin sun
So warm
A hunger grows
Their minds live as one
This world is theirs
To own
A hunger grows
Their minds live as one
This world is theirs
To own
To mold

Gaze

Gaze
Your aura
Speaks volumes.
Your air is
Impervious.
My will to stay is torn by
My past errors,
My unfit nature.
And I’ve been holding on to the
Egotistic notions of my mind.
Holding you back from the
Things you are, the things that keep you alive.
(Fatal compromise)
And I would throw it all away
(Righteous sacrifice)
I can feel the harsh disdain
When I look into your gaze
Internally
I hear you
Your essence tantalizing
My being, my existence feeds
Your desire, your affection
And I’ve been holding on to the
Egotistic notions of my mind.
Holding you back from the
Things you are, the things that keep you alive.
(Fatal compromise)
And I would throw it all away
(Righteous sacrifice)
I can feel the harsh disdain
When I look into your gaze
Fear me
For I have immortality
Gaze into
The eye inside
Release the grip on your life
You’re mine
And I’ve been holding on to the
Egotistic notions of my mind.
Holding you back from the
Things you are, the things that keep you alive.
(Fatal compromise)
And I would throw it all away
(Righteous sacrifice)
I can feel the harsh disdain
When I look into your gaze

Wrath
06:21

Wrath
Blood seeps
Conjured by insolence
Tears reign
From decrepit minds
Engaged in twisted ordinance
I’ll break your will inside
These walls
Are tainted with darkness
An essence kept concealed
A fire forged from the heartless
Will allow your fate to reveal
I am
I am your suffering
I am
I am eternity
I am
I am everything
Bow down and face my wrath
I am
I am your suffering
I am
I am eternity
I am
I am your everything
Bow down and face my wrath
Enter your doom
This place your coffin, your tomb
Beckoned by those who’ve failed you
Feel my anguish and
Bask in my disdain
I’ll show you agony
I’ll show you true pain
I am
I am your suffering
I am
I am eternity
I am
I am everything
Bow down and face my wrath
I am
I am your suffering
I am
I am eternity
I am
I am your everything
Bow down and face my wrath
*An evil force of malice has been awakened from within. This forged vengeance will fester on this earth. Hatred, sealed away, has been mended by feeble scum creating the unity of minds from what once was. Doom dawns on this planet, destroying the future of a tranquil world. Chaos is now rule. Hell has broken loose. The power may now be restored to the primal gods.*
*We build the monolith*
*I am
I am your suffering
I am
I am eternity
I am
I am everything
Bow down and face my*
Enter your doom
Escape your privilege
Your womb of solace let hatred compel you
Feel the fire, the cyclic hand of agony
I’ll show your feeble nature
I’ll be your hell’s creator
Face my wrath
Bow down and face my wrath
Bow down and face my wrath
*we build the monolith*

Escape From Hell
05:21
|

Escape from Hell
Into the fire,
You’re falling away from me.
Embers transpire,
Plunged far into the deep.
I swear I’ll find you.
I Won’t let you fade away.
It may be what your due,
But I can’t let you stay.
I’ll save your soul.
You are my home.
I feel the skin on my bones,
Corrode and wash away.
Your energy like a light,
Is worth enduring this pain.
The reaper’s scythe is amok,
An inferno burning the air.
Feel the heat melting your mind,
Gaze into Lucifer’s stare.
I’ll save your soul.
You are my home.
You’re my only,
Holding on to life,
Unholy,
Lonely, but still alive.
We’ll escape.
Leave this place.
Run away.
Into the fray.
Enter into madness.
Divert from this deceit.
You are mine.
Alive.
Escape from the past.
Block out all their lies.
You are mine.
Alive.
This devil is hungry for your soul,
And I won’t stop till I feed.
I’ll fight till this place will eat us whole,
To me you mean everything.
We’ll escape.
Leave this place.
Run away.
Into the fray.

Exiled

Exiled
*Primordials*
Enter the end of the world
And welcome a prehistoric reign
Ravage the offerings
To engineer devastation
Blood paints a fissured earth
Concealing your egotistic existence
I am the destroyer of worlds **
Bow down to your new god
Your new god
Feed your fear to gods immortal
Release your soul to me
Consume to your despair
Feel my fire, taste the power as
You claw away, only to delay
Your fall into doom
*Mayans*
Evil surges from my hand
Is it all too late, to seal away
This essence of maleficence
Pained regret fills my soul with the courage to fight for the life of all those that I’ve known
Alone and left vacant
At the edge of our time
I stand reawakened
With the light by my side
I’ll seal away these vices in
Immortal infamy
Returned to hell from which they came
Exiled from history
For us to stay alive,
They must die
*Primordials*
If a war is what you want
Then a war is what you’ll get
I will feast upon your flesh as this world turns into ashes
Reign through the offerings
The weakest links provide the best substance
Wearing thin your new might will fall
The gears of the war turn in favor of the vile
The fear of spawn settles in with the bile
*Mayans*
I won’t lose it all away
I’ll fight with all I have
*Primordials*
Your strength will dissipate
*Mayans*
Mortal rage flames inside my mind
Fueled by a heart of fire
*Primordials*
Extinguished at my grasp
*Mayans*
I’ll seal away these vices in
Immortal infamy
(Immortal infamy)
Returned to hell from which they came
Exiled from history
(Exiles from history)
For us to stay alive,
They must die
*Primordials*
Your ego deceives you
You’re swallowed in pride
You’ve won a battle
But now you must
Prepare for a war
Kneel to the power before you
Cede to the haunting doom
Return to an old world
To be enslaved by the gods
*Mayans*
Terror reigns
This world is breaking apart
A withered strain
Is infecting the purest of heart
I won’t let them fester
These vices will heed my name
Imprisoned for all time
Sent back to Hell by my blade
Taken by surprise only to be
Dammed to endless time
Weakened but alive to rot inside
This prison for a mind
The end of a kind
A survival designed
*Primordials*
Enter hell
Attempts to subdue extinction
May suffice to pose a threat
In spite of your greatest endeavor
I will not leave this earth
*Mayans*
Seal them away
Follow into the fray
Break them and
Cause them to leave this earth
*Primordials*
Awakened to be returned to dust
The wrath of a god was not enough
*Mayans*
Enveloped in light
This darkness will wither and die
A protector of souls and mortality
Will write a story of our victory
Sealed away and locked up tight
An eroding of their minds
Our earth restored
The ancient era has ended
Saving the lives of us all
We start anew
This plague has ended
We’re free from the wrath of a god
Our earth restored
Our beings mended
By man and his will to survive
We start anew
