It fell from the heavens and brought with it blight Contaminating the soil, feeding on fauna and flora alike But this glowing meteorite was but a harbinger for something worse For within was a womb of pure chaos that gave birth to the curse Withering on the vine Flourishing with decay The corruption spreads across the lands Black roots writhe in the earth below A graying harvest falls to waste Unhallowed radiance gleams from sickened oak Suffocated by maddening vapors Gestating in underground chambers Formless, a monstrous constellation That which consumes all things into it's toothless maw Amorphous, ghoulish miasma Devouring all lifeforms within it's vaporous jaws (Solo Davidson) Churning clouds of chaos A living maelstrom Not of this world Born from the backwards beyond

The expedition began at midnight The torchlit courtyard deathly still What lies beneath the befouled cathedral? Secrets only the dead will tell A blood moon looming above As they scale the iron gate In search of opulence But only madness awaits Shattering the stained glass window pane Three thieves make haste inside the halls Below the altar lies an entrance to the crypts Downward they proceed, their avarice will doom them all Eerie clouds cut across the moon Like razors through an eye Descending ancient stairways In search of where accursed treasures lie Scouring tenebrous rooms In frantic pursuit of the luminous tomb The glow of their torches growing dim Lost in underground chambers deep within Faced by a maze of unknown pathways Cryptic corridors on every side Trapped within this never ending labyrinth A foul presence lurks where the shadows hide I see the light up ahead The radiant vault is in sight The thieves shamble onward Through passages blacker than night As their smoldering torches burn out The glimmer ahead fades away The luminous tomb 'twas but a cursed mirage Drawing them deeper and deeper inside of the maze (Solo Davidson) (Solo Gargiulo) Trapped forevermore In fathomless catacombs 3 forsaken souls Damned to roam in darkness eternal
Searching for meaning, grasping at straws The unanswered question always remains Is the grave but a doorway to everlasting life? Or shall we return to dust from whence we came? Inverted hourglass The sifting sands of fate Haunted by morality Shackled to its weight Skeletal hands Forever ticking on coffin shaped clocks In realms of infinite death Grave upon grave Embracing the void as the light fades away Bring me eternal rest Ephemeral pleasures of this earthly domain Futile is the flesh in this cycle of death and decay Oh the deathknell tolls for thee Enshrouded by darkness in dreamless sleep Crossing the threshold into the land of the deceased Joined together eternally Consumed by unrelenting visions of the end Desiring to be one with the beckoning dead (Solo Davidson) Omnia Vanitas

This track is instrumental.
Born of the dust Imbued with freewill Two souls intertwined Lured by ophidian tongues Blaspheming the garden of delight O, serpent Bringer of light Guiding us through the darkness Let your brilliance shine upon thee from the depths below Eat of this fruit forbidden The promise of enlightenment You can live as a slave or be rid of those chains By embracing this serpentine covenant Banished from this utopia Heavenly father, what have we done? Cast out in nakedness, ashamed Heeding the call of this forked tongue Let Lucifer's torch lead the way Steering us onward towards a new dawn Feel the warmth of Satan's flame Reveling in his empowerment Enveloped by wings as black as pitch Enchanted by the serpent's kiss (Solo Davidson)
Across fathomless gulfs Where darkness has devoured all light Lies a comatose universe Enveloped in everlasting night When the celestial candle burns out And the watchers return to their outer planes All life will expire And only the void will remain (Solo Gargiulo) A starless darkness reigns In this realm of aeon's long death Extinguishing the cosmic flame In an ocean of emptiness (Solo Davidson) Nothingness devouring infinity Unmasking the fabric of reality Vacuous realm Forsaken dimension All matter decays and dissolves away Frozen macrocosm Devoid of light A graveyard of galaxies Where dead suns are never to shine (Solo Davidson)
