At the foot of the mountain, I stand questioning myself
Should I continue to pursue hopes of a life with purpose?
A cold gut feeling draws my body toward the forest like reigns around my being
In the back of my mind, my conscience screams “do not believe what you are seeing”
Remains of travelers scattered along the trail, the signs telling me not to leave the beaten paths
Yurei will skin your mind from the inside, the Jukai loves toying with fearful hearts
I venture beyond the leftovers of the forest’s now prisoners, until the entrance departs-
Ropes from tree to tree, leading to the end of all these frail lives
The screams beneath my feet are all spinning me lies
Dragging me under, into icy caverns where the soul of the forest hides
Anxiety takes over my body
Frozen where I stand; I see the cloaks of mist rolling toward me
I will not become you!
Futile screams as my perception is pried open and rewired
An altered conscience cursed upon me
I’ve lost my fucking mind, I never wished for this
Taunted with trauma, callous spirits torment my vision with repressed energies
Bound with terror, my eyelids ripped from my face
Forcing me to endure the horror of this place
Nothing could have prepared me for this
A body hangs from every branch, as the souls embody the trees
The roots restrain my limbs as the fog crawls down my throat
Convulsing as my spirit is extracted and drained of all satisfaction
Feeling the last piece of me slither out of my infected body
A ghastly figure now standing over my empty vessel
Nothing could have prepared me for this

A million years of the same repugnance
I cannot believe that I've fucking deserved this
An overlooking evil runs resentment down my spine and invades my psyche
Scouring the rubble, sentient roots searching for leftover life to drain
There is no escape from these creatures, submit yourself to be slain
In the end, no flesh will stand
I have every soul under my command
Swarms of black fog surround me as I treck these lands
No one to be spared
I glance at the destruction around me
It fills my void with artificial joy to see catostrophy
Buildings falling, the Earth sinking into itself slowly, magma rising
Scorching every surface into a burned mess
All defences removed, eradicating all distress
This calamity is vital for the final process
Scorching every surface into a burned mess
All defences removed, eradicating all distress
This calamity is vital for the final process
I glance at the destruction around me
It fills my void with artificial joy to see catostrophy
Embers igniting the sky, kneel before the new divine
I glance at the destruction around me
It fills my void with artificial joy to see catostrophy
Embers igniting the sky, kneel before the new divine
Now you will know
When all the pain has subsided
A million years of the same repugnance
I cannot believe it's taken this long
To rid the virus clear right off this planet
Harvesting energy to fuel this absolution
A rebirth of myself is the only solution
A million years of the same repugnance
I cannot believe it's taken this long
To rid the virus clear off this planet
Harvesting energy to fuel this absolution
A rebirth of myself is the only solution

Disgusting excuses of energy
Frail, sickly sacks of meat
Excuses of energy
Frail, sickly sacks of meat
Swarming colours enter my eyes as visions of miscreation pry my mind
From the ones who paved this valley of veins, inside myself I feel there is only but one option for salvation now
Carefully severing vital organs, keeping the soft tissue intact to be the perfect pieces for my final product
Recycling the harvested bodies, relentlessly stitching their organs together to begin the birth of my new species
This world is polluted with moral weakness; there is no margin for frailty in my plan
Puppets of flesh, the plague of man
Remove their eyes and set them free, rip their tongues from their jaws so they fall silently
Witness the fall of this world's dynasty, as the scum of the earth writhes violently
I am the father of abomination.
Global Predation
Fall before the beast, as the small few are destroyed, enthralled by pain.
Defile the sanctity of man, reshape their flesh, a new addition to my pet, as we digress, erase this mess!
My final product is complete, allow this monstrosity to feast
With no resistance left in sight, my beast begins the purification this earth needed
Curing the human disease
Preparing the land for the new apex predator to birth and claim its rightful host
To spawn and terraform
Until this planet is perfect once again
Disgusting excuses of energy
Frail, sickly sacks of meat

Voiding all light
As the ground opens wide
Each fissure engorging the Earth
Revealing the last tainted force
Spewing forth dark smog to smudge every surface
Focusing on the screams of splintery anguish
Receding before all purity is vanquished
Monuments pulled from their roots and drowned in darkness
A sacred ground overthrown and infected by heartless
Sentient and aware, swallowed into the Earth
The last sight of purity lost along with its' worth
Begging for relief; disappearing into the chasm, washed away like a sea of trees
Overwhelmed by vengeance, with one desire at heart
Nothing can withstand against these waves of monstrosity
Dark mist fading away to
Show all desperation
Hollowed vessels awakened
Tainting everything
There is no reason left for this planet's life
Cursing it's lands, imposing conflict and strife
Blood stained hands, standing before the face of might
Monuments pulled from their roots and drowned in darkness
A sacred ground overthrown and infected by heartless
Sentient and aware, swallowed into the Earth
The last sight of purity lost along with its' worth
Dark mist fading away to
Show all desperation
Hollowed vessels awakened
Tainting everything
There is no reason left for this planet's life
Cursing it's lands, imposing conflict and strife
Blood stained hands, standing before the face of might
Rows of black smoke engulfing the terrain, moving as one tide of rage
Forcing every drop of faith to evaporate
From the fiery wrath of the Yurei
Fueled by those who tempted fate
Disassembling the very structure of this earthly wireframe
Forging a new mould with the tempered flame from the mountain
Observe
Spilling it's guts
Scorching the soil
Sealing the wounds with the torment it boils
With nowhere to run or hide away
Turn your backs on the ones who said to pray

Beneath the forest floor, once flowing, with the heat of the mountain,
Now frozen to the core, vein-like roots pulsing through these cavern walls,
Hollowed caves of torment, to hold these broken souls
With bodies lined down these hallways, of marrow
One by one, they’re led through the frosty depths to face their sorrow
Forced to make the offer of flesh, unto the one who holds the reigns
Watch as this, fierce deity corrupts each vessel with malignance
Misery, eating away at what's left of their sanity
Pry your eyes, upon the colossal doors leading to their demise
Exposing, the lair of the soul where it rests in it's splintery throne
Agony spills as each carcass is impaled on the roots, as they're thrown from the edge of the abyss
Looked down upon by the empty throne, it's structure riddled with hoarded despair
A unity of life binds every lair as one, mangled corpses left with all of their pain undone
With bodies lined down these hallways of marrow
One by one they're led to the frosty depths to face their sorrow
Watch as this, fierce deity corrupts each vessel with malignance
Misery, eating away at what's left of their sanity
Pry your eyes, upon the colossal doors leading to their demise
Exposing, the lair of the soul where it rests in it's splintery throne
Torture proves that the mind is stronger than the body
The conscience survives as the host dies
Devoured by thorns
Arising from the gorge to join the rest of their kind

Burials

Peer skyward
The sun's gaze has relinquished
To orchestrate the last global event
As the roads tremor, fissures split the surface wide
Structures crumble, their material returned to where it came from
Sinking cities, weak human constructs
Not a fucking sign of life
As the vessel of nature takes her strides, relishing in her actions
I cannot move a limb, stuck in her awe, overwhelmed with desire
The taste of ego lingers in the wind
Swept with the rising tide of deceit
In a kingdom without a king
In a kingdom without a king
Peer skyward
The sun's gaze has relinquished
To orchestrate the last global event
As the roads tremor, fissures split the surface wide
Clinging to
The last thread of hope
As this world
Falls below
You fucking deceived us
You tricked us into thinking you were the solution
Now cover up your tracks like you were never even here
Flee from the carnage, as time swallows the rubble
Returning to how it once was,
No flesh in sight
Returning to how it once was
Our final plight
I leave this world now that it is cleared, departing to my own sphere
Until I am required to venture again
You fucking deceived us
You betrayed us all
Now cover up your tracks
You fucking deceived us
You betrayed us all
Now cover up your tracks
On the brink of annihilation
I stand quiet until required
To end every foul desire
To end every foul desire
