Such Devils We Shame
Beneath the sun’s bright burning light He dons waxed wings and poises to take flight Ascending, climbing high into a naked sky Resisting the very earth, as wakened gods we rise No cage for men shall hold me for my father’s mind does shame Metis and elevate us I wrest a higher throne and no longer care for kings who rule beneath my feet I raise my eyes to a god still above Should I dare rise or am I but a dove? Fathеr’s words echo but fade As I shed all rеstraint The world descends beneath me as soft winds carry me ever skyward To untouched places Apollo rides before me I’ve come to meet you oh great one as equals in the sky So bright and ever fleeting, where doves would give gods chase Such warmth in never meeting on wings fragile as lace Father, what have I done? Such gifts I’ve wasted For my wings shall feed the sea Father, the deep is calling I’m beckoned by the blackest waves That are reaching up for me But seconds left for shame between both sea and flame I still rage against betraying skies A lesson to my disdain shall I commit in vain Nothing’s left but to close my eyes I leave you with my name And failures that I’ve wrought I pray my memory tames Delusions as I sought Beneath the sun’s fast fading light He sinks beneath a dark hungry tide No lot of earth shall hold me Though my father’s tears do salt the sea, I’ll remain graveless I claim the lowest throne, and no longer care for kings For I shall feed the deep Shallow waves shall sing a hymn to praise a setting sun As I lay eternally undone

Discern which voice can fill the void Faceless and unseen Dead broken wings, no hidden shame Just assets to redeem Beneath we feed on lesser dreams And falter beneath their feet Rend and reap such petty things As silence heralds sleep Rest within black eyes That seek to take us to our knees As we partake in lies That we may find some meager part to play in this disease Play to our hearts, of our desires Tell us of what we seek What must we trade, what must we sell So that we can be free? Wrest our heavy eyes A song is sung for us to sleep I See, no sun will rise Shadows veil a land that’s torn and stilled by its deceit Alone, en masse We flail, at still Shaking, seething Silently, shrieking Let it come! Let it pass! Dawn of darkness Forever last Ever weakening Clench the chains we seek Better off on bleeding knees Than dying on our feet So I abide Can we blame them for desires? Would not all hearts fall just the same? If they would lead us to the fire Then I will follow without shame Lay down with me As lambs to bleed Come offer up your throats. Appease and feast Feed your fill on each other’s loss Praise our suffering Praise be to the pain Praise our hidden lords And praise be to the lies that make us weak

We keep the fires, unleash the seas From breathing spires, the arc of the heavens feed Enthroned by maws of sharpened steel Enslaved we are to the turning of the wheel The tie is severed The throat is torn A dead whore lies rotting A mother scorned Unbound desire, the flame we seek Unfettered ire, the sun shall not tame our need Pistons drum, thе beast must feed Unbroken reign, harkеn all, steel angels sing Crow Feast! Crow Feast! See death to us Ever graceless Our paths shall merge Your seed among us The scent grows stronger Dead flesh begins to reek Where crows now wander Our blood upon their beaks So shall it come to end End with us Withered and lost to time Wither with us A blight upon the stars A wretched hag that once could tempt the moon Depths raise to feed on land An ever changing face to claim the dead Our misery belies the fault that dooms us is our own We shall be the last feast for the crows We keep the fires, unleash the seas From breathing spires, the arc of the heavens feed Enthroned by maws of sharpened steel Enslaved we are to the turning of the wheel Our time has weathered Our welcome’s worn Our bodies lie rotting The flies now swarm See death to us Ever graceless Our paths shall merge Your seed among us We sin no longer What solace can we seek? What pains will linger Through blood beneath our feet? So shall it come to end End with us Withered and lost to time Wither with us A blight upon the stars A wretched hag that once could tempt the moon Depths raise to feed on land An ever changing face to claim the dead Our misery belies the fault that dooms us is our own Come and claim our last gifts to give We shall be the last feast for the crows

My face unknown to me My dreams long lost What strength I’ve gathered Now flees away from me My knees shall creak. My skin will weather My back will bend. My mind will wither A slow decent to end in death As time eats on till nothing’s left Save my bones Death’s waiting Patiently for me To lose my will to breath Or pass away in sleep I welcome him to end this pain My knees shall creak. My skin will weather My back will bend. My mind will wither A slow decent to end in death As time eats on till nothing’s left Savе my bones Nothing’s left save my bonеs

Dead play of stars. Burning reign in a shower of pale souls Set me ablaze within shades of the past to be reclaimed A silence does sing that I might peer beyond where my sight fades Eyes within heaven. Yearning to return from whence we came Father, I name! A son of sun's flame Mother, we claim all that you gift us and more! We fail to embrace you To see through, and scorn the divine Heaven's cold and filled with but so littlе light Not much to hold to, yet so much to forsake Lover of dark, seekеr of secrets in night's gathering Unveil the arcane and sever our bonds to apocryphal lies The faithful are culling archaic deceptions to render them blind Let's sunder toward truth, and shatter convictions, lest silence be claimed Father, defamed! We turn from truth's name Mother, we've shamed all that you gift us and more! We fail to embrace you To see through, and scorn the divine Heaven's cold and filled with but so little light Not much to hold to, yet so much to forsake Pale be the lights that could set us free Yet loyal as the dawn Sins in night that quest for insight Of how this all began So much dark beyond our fragile sky Yet so much to convey Knowledge wastes beneath a heavy cross And keeps slipping away (Though no longer sleeping, truth is slowly slipping away.) Lover of the dark... free me Lover of dark, seeker of secrets in night's gathering Unveil the arcane and sever our bonds to apocryphal lies The faithful are culling archaic deceptions to render them blind Let's sunder toward truth, and shatter convictions lest silence be claimed

Let us rend the tethers that breed And inflame cold hearts that rather sleep Answers seemingly bright, but for those that close dead eyes Yet more come to follow the blind So easy they banish the truth from their sight (The sightless walk in sight) I see your face as my own (within their cursed night.) Would they burn out their ears or let your story be told? (The sightless walk in sight) I see our eyes seek the same (within their cursed night) Would they carry their lies and just bury the blame? Yours to seek Mine to keep Pry a life from me if you are able Weather through the mire on ground unstable Land of the free Freedom to live beneath Bled to their knees Reaching for what's been seized So lost are we Blinded by what we keep Deaf to the pleas, with hearts hard as stone can be Silent too long! What's left to claim? Angered by silence and rightfully so Vultures do circle in lieu of the crow A fire that needs sating but none, but the dead Shall reach us Showered by blood of our brothers we kill Blaming their death on their unbroken will The pillars are shaking but no mercy found Can nothing wake us now? On cries, pain, death shall we reign. For Some must suffer for others to rise Despise, resist, project, abhor your fate And know that many of us will stand with you Darkness cannot drive out darkness Hate cannot drive out hate Answers seemingly bright, but for those that close dead eyes Yet more come to follow the blind So easy they banish the truth from their sight (The sightless walk in sight) I see your face as my own (Within their cursed night) Would they burn out their ears or let your story be told? Let us rend the tethers that breed And inflame cold hearts that rather sleep

Stricken! My body cursed by design Invoke your faith on sickened flesh to rectify my shame Just lay your hands upon me, that they may find my name Praise be his name! Praise be his name! Bright as the sun Blind shall we stay! Blind shall we stay! For he that sits upon a blood stained golden throne Deceive me father, I long to fear and tremble in the dark Poor devils walk amongst the flock. Toward cleansing fire we'll thrust My hands reach for heaven My knees bleed oh lord, I’m bleeding for you So quiet you have been as all the world cries Your name upon parched lips left trembling and dry Where be thine angels? Oh God, am I alone? Where have you gone? Should not they heed my weakened pleas? Praise be his name! Praise be his name! Bright as the sun Blind shall we stay! Blind shall we stay! Upon a golden throne sits emptiness that’s cold as winters touch Is this timeless being aroused by pain? Or is your blind faith invested in an entity that doesn’t exist? Fear not heavens’ "justice"! Nor god, nor hell, fear us! Dwelling in each of us Writhing tainted darkness Abating the fire with questioned silence Waning in light, the gates of heaven fall The absent son has shown us A generation passed His empty words on woken tongues For blasphemies to cast Inspire my mind to greater things Awakened minds to reign The heavens still above us but they are ours to claim

The dead do speak with me I can see the other side And for but a meager fee I can tell you of their love Deception is truth, if truth is but what's seen In mastery of what's left unperceived The laws do bend for me I manipulate with time No truth can hinder me I can heal you with my mind Deception is truth (The truth you’re looking for) If truth is but what's seen (No matter what the cost) In mastery of (What are you waiting for)? What's left unperceived (The light of God is me) Abolish all reason you won't see my hand I'll divert your eyes with whatever demands As smoke and mirrors play, I'll earn your faith today Thoughtless as to how I prey on hopes and dreams Skeptics be damned they won't hear what you say I've already won them, they've already paid “Clairvoyant” they shall say I've read their minds today Hopeless are the faithful breeding this disease I see your future it's coming to me Just give me your hand The spirits are speaking, your lover is calling. Pay all that you can (I am) the lost voice of those you loved (I am) An alternative for your ailment's drugs (I am) The hope you wear that your child still breaths (I am) a blinding faith for all that you need A servant of divines with pure control of mind A master I shall play, and seek for the blind And decline, all that would doubt, a testing of my power Divinity does shine from me for all to see Come to me! As smoke and mirrors play, I'll earn your faith today Thoughtless as to how I prey on hopes and dreams Skeptics be damned they won't hear what you say I've already won them, they've already paid "Clairvoyant" they shall say I've read their minds today Hopeless are the faithful breeding this disease Let us bleed these saviors Who feed deep on the weak They must pay on their knees Our hellfire must burn deep In spite of all the vast acquired knowledge, they still strive to bind us Minds must progress to seek the empirical, to free us

I'd rather sink Entombed beneath the might of ancient trees Where hungry roots shall feast upon my bones I’d rather sleep Through deep and dreamless nights In coldest ice held earth Forsaking gods and my rebirth This world has claimed its toll I've battled long and played my role Now I deserve to rest in peace I'd rather be Without the gates of heaven’s light Where nothing but dark void is reaching out for me I'd rather seek A place to rest еternal Deep beneath thе earth Forsaking gods and my rebirth This world has claimed its toll I've battled long and played my role Now I deserve to rest in peace Death's greatest gift is sleep Deep… Peace… I've traveled long and traveled far I've slept beneath the endless stars I've suffered wounds and grit my teeth I've earned my right to rest in peace Release me! Think of me what you will But honor my rest!

See me my dove I've tasted other flesh None nearly quite as sweet The slab of steel beneath Shall help me cut the choicest meats The skin of my lover Is cold as the grave A room so silent none could hear Your playful screams You play the lamb with begging throat I'll paint the scene (Amor, amor aeternus.) Love is so fleeting (Aeternus in morte.) Ephemeral by design (Amor, amor aeternus.) How fast your heart doеs beat (Aeternus in mortе.) and soon it will be mine I yearn to bring you in to me May we be one A heart that beats can always flee But not one I eat (Amor, amor aeternus.) Love is so fleeting (Aeternus in morte.) Ephemeral by design (Amor, amor aeternus.) How fast your heart does beat (Aeternus in morte.) and soon it will be mine Her skin is pale as winter sun But I'd swear my soul that's where my life began Within her eyes of shattered grey A brightness shines that turns my night into day The only fire that's in my eyes Consuming souls, consuming lives Beneath this bright facade A cloak of feeding flies
