Eremus

Miles and miles and miles
Endless dunes
The sky overheard
Its mocking blue
Thirst, burning thirst
Consuming all
Hope against sense
Pushing on
Eremus
Null
Vast
Horizon
Downcast
(2x)
Feet
Blistered, raw
Head hangs down
No sign of life
To be found
Black peaks of stone
Greet the eye
Gems in the dusk
Steal the sky

Walk the wastes on blistered feet
Through the ruins and decay
Nothing left of value here
No one left who knows my name
Fire's glow against the sky
Embers climb into the night
Thunderclouds roll overhead
Distant cry of starving dogs
Scent of plague upon the wind
Scapegoats cast into the wild
Haze that dims the burning sun
Lay down in the dust to sleep
Now the serpent lifts his head
Now the sky dissolves away
Fever dreams of hellish life
Nothing to eternity

Deaf to all whose words don’t please you
Spit at those that do not bow low
Build your walls through spite and half-truths
Do not bend and now you will break
Now you will see just what you are
Now your knees will meet the hard earth
Now your back will strain with dead weight
Oh how cruel the world can be, yeah
Earn the place that you deserve tonight
Fall into a den of worms tonight
Fill your bowels with coals of hell tonight
You can’t see me in the plain light
You have no strength in your cold hands
In the night your cries are not heard
You shall reap the void you brought forth
This is the time of a horned moon
This is the time when your blood cools
Now come snake fangs to your proud flesh
Walk now the path of one brought low
Earn the place that you deserve tonight
Fall into a den of worms tonight
Fill your bowels with coals of hell tonight
Feast upon the filth of rats tonight
Crawl into the blackest pit tonight
Drag you down
Break your will
On all fours
Like a dog
See you fall
Make you see
Tear the veil
From your eyes

Relinquishment

Floating, drifting, slipping into the night
Limbless, faceless, weightless tonight
Everything I ever wanted
Everything I ever needed
Push through the walls
Blooming white skull
Everything I ever wanted
Everything I ever needed
Throw open the gates of my home
With all delight
I enter the silence again
Into the light of the void
The beginning and end
Utter release and the shedding of skin tonight
Gravity conquered and fetters unbound tonight
Everything I ever wanted
Everything I ever needed
Push through the walls
Blooming white skull
Everything I ever wanted
Everything I ever needed
Here is my blood, here is thy cup
With all delight
I enter the silence again
Into the light of the void
The beginning and end
