The ardent faith gathered here
Seed from a dominant scheme
Spawning over the ages
All must die
Impure stains soiled the creation
As the antique lore had taught
A lineage on a mission
Striving for the end
Back to the dark all shall go
To be redeemed in bliss
Cosmos longs for conclusion
Matter is the enemy
Life is a mere obstruction
A new loop ought to begin
Extinction in pure elation
Eight is the track to ensue
Dawn of a prodigal waste
The edge of times is bouncing
Spiritual rail to void
Restart the opening bang
Reload like a phoenix

Dissonant Occurrence
08:08
|
|

Burgeoning souls
Abounding stars
Remembrance of our past
Sparkles before the fall
Serenity has long been gone
Decayed vestiges of the lost
Panting to retrieve harmony
It was a different place back then
Lush of cosmic blazes of old
Entropy accelerated
The play of life isn’t complete
Don’t let its headliners yet die
Collusion of musing brothers
Beholding the unsung
And getting to find together
The answers they should know
Discerning the tremendous threat
Before it’s much too late
And getting to reach together
The way they ought to go
Depraved… Nefarious blemishes
Debauched… Nothing has been done
Agitation has been hoarded
Growing glimmers of the fools
Gasping to injure unity
It is a disparate zone by now
Barren cosmic obscurity
Unheard magnitude of heralds
The pawns of death demand a toll
Witness them ignite the heavens
Dissonant occurrence

The Great Debacle
08:04
|
|
||
War is lost, future is sealed
Biting the dust, fleet spread astray
Final extinction stage
Bright is the sun of sour guilt
Fathoming what doom befell
Obliterating fierce might
Foraging the apex,
An edifice of downfall
Vanquished, defeated
Humiliating checkmate
Debris floating in ether
Ashes in the shade
Carrions in weightlessness
Hovering, lighted no more
Castaway cargo,
Hope has expired at once
The Great Debacle
Perished coming, life’s last strain
Bleak bleeding of rearmost insight
Frore is the void that remains
A colorless flare in the dark

Disrupted Firmament
08:08
|
|
||
Gone is the fear of death
Numbed are the odds and ends
Lone feeble wounded stars
Lean gloss of the starved
Dead is the firmament
Worn out spirits wither away
Nothing withstands amongst the ruins
Holding back the final breath
Specks of culture fading to black
Shredded welkin, the tail of times
Pious oracles of faith
Zealed, honouring a plague
Shut extinguishing sparks
Swept crumbs of potency
Swamps of desperation
Wrecked are the souls wasted away
Nothing withstands amongst the ruins
Holding back the final breath
Specks of culture fading to black
Shredded welkin, the tail of times
In awe of a blissful cancer
A foretell apocalypse concluded
Nothing withstands amongst the ruins
Holding back the final breath
Specks of culture fading to black
Shredded welkin, the tail of times
