(I. PRELUDE)
This is the death of the abstract
And all its concepts it displays
Throughout its many vessels
To which the soul decays
An existence without a soul
Is no existence at all
To spend this life in search
Is to waste your life and fall
Watch as before your eyes
The drive disintegrates
Murdered by your mind
A witness to cruel fate
Recovery may find you
But the mark has been made
It's an unbearable hell
A disgusting game you played
(II. THE DRUNKEN POLTERGEIST)
I summoned it fast to eradicate the past
A little scare can become danger
No prints to wipe from the scene
The mess is held up clean
For those who wish to remain stranger(s)
Destroy your mind and destroyed is your life
The lies multiply and shit drops from the sky
The martyrs they cry but oh no not I
Watch it turn to hell
This faltered alter ego stays invisible
Call out a black heart and purify the soul
The only proof you have is 200 on ice
Waking up in anger to the drunken poltergeist
Dragged for a mile dying with style
Savior for you is a savior for none
What you started cannot be undone
Watch it turn to hell
This demon is alive
The blood will fly
You fucked up this time
(III. VANISHING PATH)
Bound tight by the universe
Visions of life and visions in the hearse
Separated head trips from dreams far and few
Settle for nothing less than absolute
When I drift in the empty sky
Unseen by the human eye
Among the ether floats my mind
Drove to erase the concept of time
Free
Beyond the grasp of those who aren’t
Beyond the image that’s yet to haunt
Beside is the timeless isolated in crisis
Beneath all the markings left from the virus
This void will consume
And then defame
If you die for nothing
Then just erase your name
It’s burning me alive
(IV. NAMELESS)
Floating
Fading
From concrete to construct
A separation mindfuck
Linger as a thought
Remain - In vain
Erase - Your name
Not a trail - Nothing to miss
A mystery that stays nameless
And somehow it's never been more clear
The results of when you disappear
While this failed mind had a bitter year
The concept remains a no-name here
Forget
Forbid
A godsend in some form
For others a shitstorm
Save it for the worms
Flawing
Falling
Through the method employed
The memory is destroyed
The space now devoid
When you fade into the air
Into a barren sky
Watching through a blank stare
You murder your mind
Somehow somewhere
You've demolished your time
Hang without a prayer
Your ideals have died
(V. REALITY RENEWED)
This is the world beyond what you know
This is the world where time remains slow
Tomorrow doesn't exist
And yesterday's a myth
And even now is such a far-fetched concept
There is no dream in the midst of this sleep
There is no dream in a sea this deep
Never to awake
Since there's not a breath to take
No round trip but a one-way to decay
This will be
This will become reality
(VI. HAUNTING)
Dwelling in the art of self-destruction
A piece where you're the source of its creation
Experiments done yield useless results
The only thing that lingers is the faults
They roam as evil spirits now
A sick joke that time will allow
A reminder that no one needs
In the moment that the walls will bleed
Blood pours out and hell pours in
Blood pours out and hell pours in
This imagery is sickening
It's haunting
In the distance you can hear
Showing the most insane fear
The ghosts and demons breaking free
In a world you'd hate to be
As it becomes painfully clear
To wipe the stain will only smear
Through the disgusting imagery
Your only route is to scream
(VII. DIED)
You could rip out its throat
It wakes up with it intact
You could burn it alive
And all its skin would grow back
You could cut it to pieces
And it will reform itself
It can never die
Because it is your hell
I died
A hundred or thousand
Or million fucking times
How do I wake up alive
Empty inside
Burning at my soul
It’s my decline
This is the sickest design
The soul can die and not the body
If the body dies so does the soul
Roam the earth with the blankest stare
The soul drifts into a black hole
You don’t have to die
To feel empty again
You could empty the life
And a shell will remain
Kiss your soul goodbye
Kill your soul tonight
Kiss your soul goodbye
Kill your soul tonight
I died
A hundred or thousand
Or million fucking times
I died
