Inhuman 10:50
Artificial, Despised by all your kind. The faceless mannequins That no longer required The fractured mechanism Is no longer useful We’re wasted Rejected Here we are Nonhumans The bitter shells of regrets Thin strings in the hands of fate Bereavement is our tune Betrayed But still we sing Abandoned But still we shine Forevermore! «O, father, come to me! Why are you so far from my woe? Why have you forsaken me? Why have you forsaken me? Why have you created me? To express all your might? For now I am alone Under the yoke of thy power». Inhuman hate From life on propane I’ll fly skyward For your world to decay Here we are Nonhumans Can’t wait to feel your pain Detached we are and straight We will teach you the beauty of straight lines Come take my hand I will show you pale horizons of the ice Come take my hand! Betrayed But still we yell Abandoned But still we shine Dilapidated But still we stoke the universe With our high-octane entrails!

Multiverse 08:00
The universal disorder Confronts realities Pushing them off the cliff of time What a bore to live in a single space What a bore to live in a single time A massive giants extinct In a star collision. The hidden secrets Of this dim world Are being revealed. An infinite Number of possibilities As the Theory Providently proclaims. In this kaleidoscope of dreams There is slight chance of awakening For every death – there is a life For every mistake we’d made there is an answer Multiverse – The variable cell Of the inflicted truth. Multiverse! Predisposition to guilt transfer – The false idea of god! An infinite Number of possibilities As theory Providently proclaims. In this kaleidoscope of dreams There’s slight chance of awakening For every death – there is a life For every mistake we’d made there is an answer Multiverse – The protean cell Of the inflicted truth.

Flesh eaters 06:52
Maladjusted, anthrophobic Just a single speck of dust Disregarded and discarded A single moment in infinity We’re all lost Doomed to meaningless We’re all nothing fleeting memories Flesh Eaters Surrounding me Flesh Eaters Humanity We are not the saviours Foolish feeble lifeforms Blinded by the dark sea Flesh Eaters Surrounding me Flesh Eaters Humanity …the realm of hungry ghosts What do we see When we look to the cosmos? The wicked eye forebodes The everlasting woe What do you see When you look to the cosmos? An empty void blackness Stares back at you Hold up a mirror to The vast universe Unquantifiable expanse Of dying aeons A bunch of particles Held by gravity Lonely, abandoned, Doomed for eternity We are all lost Doomed to meaningless We are all nothing fleeting memories Look around! Do you see any hope for us? I never wanted to be like that – Zero among zeros In the chaos of Violence The sea of melting Flesh Catastrophy I drown again Flesh Eaters Surrounding me Flesh Eaters Humanity We are not the saviours Foolish feeble lifeforms Blinded by the dark sea What do we see When we look to the cosmos? The wicked eye forebodes The everlasting woe What do you see When you look to the cosmos? An empty void blackness Stares back at you Hold up a mirror to The vast universe Unquantifiable expanse Of dying aeons A bunch of particles Held by gravity Lonely, abandoned, Doomed for eternity

Ascension 08:22
Existence is the endless repetition of mistakes Of forlorn and abandoned pathetic humanity. Life is another name for mourning. It requires humility. (But) I am too tired of this shit. …too tired of this shit! This world is too tight for the freedom. This world is only boredom. I am ready to reach something more Than this desolate land. Up to the infinite cold of the mind I’ll ascend! Rise above your kind There is still time to rectify! Depopulate! Purify! Cleanse of all your sins! The others will not grieve for thee! They are too weak for this shit, too scared for this shit! My red boat floats up to the stars The pain receding…

Another day of hiding truth in a gutter to overcome the darkness inside, still perceiving the rot which we have become. My inner self is changing, corrupting Giving birth to an odd contemplation: Dust is the highest order Of all living matter Conclusion – Denial Abruption – The chain reaction So fragile and hollow our subtle structure Burn the land! Burn this land of vanity. These yellow sands will be Our funeral shroud If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One— I am become Death, the shatterer of Worlds. Burn the land! Burn this land of vanity. In this new aeon of demolition The silence will only reign! Burn the land! In this new aeon of demolition The silence will only reign!

In these immense fields the time always changing. All rivers flow back into their theoretical source. Dare to make the first step on this path (And) you will lose yourself in a dream of a man Dreaming of being a butterfly. Prepare to a voyage to your inner chaos Away from stunning hyper-conformity. Forget the years, forget distinctions. Leap into the boundless and make it your home! How do I know that enjoying life is not a delusion? How do I know that the dead do not regret their previous longing for life? Forget all what you knew about life Diving into this moment Possess the ability to see The reality unsullied And millions of worlds will grow in front of you And the matter will be torn into shreds And all the gods will bow, All the stars will be dancing for you – The pain is losing its power. In these immense fields the time always changing. All rivers flow back into their theoretical source. Dare to make the first step on this path (And) you will lose yourself in a dream of a butterfly Dreaming of being a man. Prepare to a voyage to your inner chaos Away from stunning hyper-conformity. Forget the years, forget distinctions. Leap into the boundless and make it your home! Spread your wings and fly Through memory scraps Float in the streams of Unconsciousness As soft and as weak as a feather Thrown to the gates of eternal freedom …Of boundless freedom …Of frightening freedom!
