The Gods Scorn the Idle

Over clouds overbearing
Situated on stone
With the peering view of the ravens
The greatest heights of man
Sunken in comparison
The triumph of ambition, That old primal being
Unsighted are their halls
Ever Beyond
From sanctity of primitive iron
Met with the shattering of flesh and bone
Suffering and agony bring way to triumph
In this cold grey corpse there is new life
And glory evermore
Sacrae formae virium
Paterna voce vocantem
Purgatio animae
Over clouds overbearing
Situated on stone
With the peering view of the ravens
The greatest heights of man
Shall be broken through yet still
Unphased by the chains of vultures

Landscape of Bones

The solemn voices call through the valley
Galloping across through the centuries
The stars had gazed upon their long lost flame of hope
And buried in their resting ground
Cold and frozen like blizzards
Fallen and smouldered to dust
As carrions pass and the wolves gather at their mound to hunt
I stalk through the barren wood
And seek the blanketed ground of marrow and seeded steel
To learn the names of those wraiths
Climbing the grassy stones and trodding through the frigid streams
To sip through the graceful chalice of memory
Upon the landscape of bones
Which was purified and blessed by blood
Following beyond
Climb by climb
Step by step
Day by day
The sacred mother, will continue to gather the dead
And she'll watch as her children come to seek her harvest
Through the lowest depths of the harrowing winds
Through trial by grief, through desolate fog

Vane

Born not of this world
Outcast and lustful
Passionate with fire
Incorruptable and eternally unyielding
A force from wrathful old waves
Punishment from the beyond
Savagery meets savagery
Contempt
And the foulest dispense of mankind
Methods from hatred untamed
Hordes from kingdoms unreached
A discipe of ego or lust
Against those contemptable faith
Self-worship beyond all remorse
Steel for the sake of damn steel
Echoing will of divine ambition
Unending
A force of nature insurmountable
Ambition shall consume all
Judgement be damned

Somewhere in the Wild
05:38
|

Set upon overcast skies
Beneath the hovering vultures
A lost aparition standing alone
Overgrowth of tangled vines, Grasping the familiar tomb
Untouched by mortal hands and left to rot
Barren, empty hearths
Sanctuaries of rotting wood
The feeling of absolute circular rebirth
The legacy of the old ghost, undying beyond the vines
Bloodlines of scornful kind, reaching the ides of time
A heritage of brutality, immortal
And the hidden paths we know
Undying, and forever

Come at last ye men, Ye seekers of bread and warmth
Solace and sanctuary, await from the pickings of crows
Craving, and yearning
A life beyond the laws of kings
Seeking, and searching
A life of blood awaits
What madman could accept this cold life
Solemnly drifting these scornful waves
Thick smoke and open flesh
The early smell of the day's first catch
Come at last ye men, Ye seekers of bread and warmth
Solace and sanctuary, await from the pickings of crows
Craving, and yearning
A life beyond the laws of kings
Seeking, and searching
A life of blood awaits
Here you are, you still desire more?
Stuffed and spoiled, pissed from your glass bottle?
You chose this life forevermore
There's no escape now but death
Another day's labor, a humble endeavor
An honest life was never worth the the attempt
So as you walk alone, along these barren shores
Seek out what lies beneath the fold
A newfound life beyond the tides
To live as kings or die trying

Walls of celestial dust converge to make us whole
Our entire being and state of life
Through nature's form, a single law flows
Absolute stasis, and absolute conflict
As the eagle claws its prey upon the soil
The entire concept of life, and the desire to thrive
Hidden deep within our bones
Feel it in every pulse, and reject that which binds it
Follow the light
What a disgraceful sight, the self-bound man
Alone and cast out from his own mind
One day he'll see, he need not be damned
The stuttering fool craves only another drop
To satisfy its lowly Earthly needs
Like a defamed creature beset by plague
Arising beyond, the reaches
of maps and civilized holds
Obscured roads to Freedom
In life there is death
And in death there is life
The cycle of violence continues
And sets us on
Obscured roads to Freedom
And so as I gaze now, alone upon this grave
To walk upon this vicious cycle of life
The pathways opened where many men have fallen
And here it is, Savagery Eternal
