War of Succession

Immaculate ascension,
the realm of heaven above.
sanctuary of an enlightened universe
It's peaceful clouds are descending into insolence.
This is the kingdom where no solace can be found
It's peaceful clouds are descending into insolence.
This is the kingdom where no solace can be found
The crown weighs heavy on his head,
an ascending sign of divinity
I will conquer the sanctuary, i will bring your heaven low
and proclaim i am the god above all others
I've let myself become corrupted
I'll watch the crows devour your golden eyes we will not be slaves to royalty
Careful calculated, ascending steps
watching you turn pale with rage, in heaven you shall not remain
id rather see the coming of a lawless age
where we would wither and die by eachothers hands
where we did what was fitting in our own eyes
blinded by the light thats shut up inside of me
self absorbed with my own pride
i failed to see the error of my ways
self absorbed with my own pride
i failed to see the error of my ways
i am the light of the morning star,
I am the son of the dawn,
I am, the light of the mornnig star.
But I'm not strong enough to dethrone you, as you looked at me and said,
"I wont see defeat in this war of succession and I wont let you take my fucking thone"
Everything around you is slowly turning dark as I reach into your chest and grab your still beating heart showing all the world around you that you're a
just a mortal man you will witness the death of a king by my hand
I'd rather see the coming of a lawless age where we would wither and die by each others hands

Dying Sky

I see him falling through my mind's eye
Every night this reoccurring dream invades my slumber
I return to see the palpable scales of a dying sky.
Dilated eyes and transcendent gaze, hollow stare of the deviner
We became victims to his fall, we saw the tear in our atmosphere
I saw the King of the Bottomless Pit descend in a chariot of angels
His dark column of followers, falling with him(x2)
I looked on as he crushed the surface of the earth with his presence
I closed my eyes, but, this vision, has been burned into my head
like a parasite in its host, burning and raping a world thats left for dead
I return to see the palpable scales of a dying sky.
Dilated eyes and transcendent gaze, hollow stare of the deviner
We witnessed his fall, we saw the tear in our atmosphere
All I can see is a dying sky, This sets the scene for the coming of the angel of light
the evil thats to come, will plunge the world into darkness, we are all lost, in a sea of anguish
What i have seen is not from my mind, a vision of anguish by God's design
a vision of anguish by God's design

End of Days

THIS IS THE END OF DAYS
This is the coming of the king of kings
I told you I'd return, where Im headed now none may follow
This horrid fate is one that all must know. I see the heavens open up before me. The pits of hell surely tremble down below
Break
Behold!
my betrayer approaches
In this garden where the trees no longer grow And the sweat from my brow turns to blood
the heavens have come forth to show all living creatures
Life is a only a gift from god
What has been given to you will be taken away.. before your eyes
The sky has opened up
Before my death
The crucifix is prepared
come now The turning point of man
this is the end
the day where death consumes the world
I will remind you every that knee will bow
this is my declaration to God's and men (3)
Ekkk
The sky has opened up
Before my death
The crucifix is risen in preparation
come now The turning point for man
this is the end
the day where death consumes the world
the heavens have come forth to show all living creatures
Life is a only a gift from god
What has been given to you will be taken away.. before your eyes
I shall die with this crown of thorns on my head The sky contorted at my passing
The whips and thorns pierce my skin
I feel this pain to cleanse your sin
as my final breaths upon me
the presence of death warms my heart
my spirit rips from my body
Until the day Im born again

Her Crimson Eyes
04:56
|
|

let there be light, for i am weary of darkness
i am just a man, you are a goddess
All of my fears have been brought to the surface
I don't deserve this
I don't deserve this
Visions of chaos flashing
I feel I'm slowly giving up
Far reaching consequences
Of this encounter, of this encounter
Shrill screams in my head
Are slowly getting louder
Far reaching consequences of this encounter
Her crimson eyes they paralyze and this disguise, I slowly start to realise, what I see is what I fantasize, what I fantasize
This dark force controlling her will surely be the end
How is this possible, dreams cause space and time to bend?
Trapped,
I cannot bare the thought of life Any longer
complications you brought to this reformation will be met with swift desolation(X4)
I've slipped into a trance like state seeing only the thoughts I create
Influenced by this lonely being controlled by my own thinking
her face, contorting at a loss of control
Forfeiting her weathered soul
Her eyes slowly losing their hold
As she becomes somewhat whole
(X2)
..
Shrill screams in my head
Only getting louder
Far reaching consequences of this encounter
Her crimson eyes they paralyze and this disguise, I slowly start to realise, what I see is what I fantasize, what I fantasize
This dark force, this fallacious form of life, contorting
How is this possible, dreams cause space and time to bend?
Trapped,
I cannot bare the thought of life Any longer

Dream Paradox

A FAINT VOICE IN THE DISTANCE
THE COLD CHILL OF AUTUMN CREEPs DOWN MY SPINE
"FOLLOW ME, BE ONE OF US BE DEVINE!"
Shrill and faint as the offer leaves from their lips,
Why am i deserving of a fate such as this? The dark begins to wrap it's greedy hands around me
Slowly everything leaves this plain without me
WHY WHY WHY DO I KEEP FALLING FOR ALL THESE LIES
IS ANYTHING REAL OR JUST A FALSE DISGUISE
PLEASE PLEASE ALL I DESIRE IS THE TRUTH
ILL DO ANYTHING TO BE SANE, I BEG OF YOU
TRAPPED IN A STATE
WHERE REALITY IS SOMETHING YOU CANT CONTEMPLATE
TRULY ALONE
I NEED TO KNOW THE ONE WHO SITS UPON THE THRONE
Eck
THROUGH THE DARK BECOMES AN OVER WHELMING LIGHT
MY THOUGHTS RACING AS I RUN OUT TOWARDS THE SIGHT
we are, everything they depise
everything they cant abide by
but we're mortal,and they are devine.
they said that i'm just another one who....Dies, dies in their eyes
An empty throne, all that lingers at the end of my plight
An empty throne, and these words I must recite
Shrill and faint as the familiar offer leaves from my lips,
Why is he deserving of a fate such as this?
I say as autumns chill creeps up his spine
"FOLLOW ME, BE ONE OF US, BE DEVINE!"

Two impressive vocalists, variable and skilled guitarists and a tight and very powerful rhythm section. That plus the ability to write a song really leaves nothing left to desire here.
