Diadem

chasing dreams to the ending theme
I push on through noxious days
to rise before world downfall
and bathe in the sun’s last rays
to carve my own unique path
and seek wisdom in vestal lands
but you’ve reaped the seams
through endless schemes
forests to cities, mountains to sand
forests to cities
mountains to sand
tagged and baited, propagated
to chose sides ever polarized
manipulated, educated
with debts to prove otherwise
seasons gone, no longer turn
and the maritime continues to burn
set to consume until our doom
and making way for the herds that are groomed
sold all of your dreams
just to unburden you
handed over pride for good stride in the structured flow
and before you know
the haunting hymns of a requiem
trite farewells to the earth
its days doth grow dearth
countervailing all that’s stated
devolution in modern disguise
where the assimilated, not just imitated
will pave roads to life’s demise
where the things to see are all concrete
or safely inside, under chemical skies
when things will be all too bleak
the individual has finally died.
lead: a jagged vision
sold all of your dreams
just to unburden you
handed over pride for good stride in the structured flow
let no emotions show
you vapid jewel for the diadem
terrorizing the earth
so their days shan’t grow dearth

Virtue Lies Defeated
02:39
|
|||
once held sacred
intellectual thought
now just a vestige
never to be sought
fed addictions through manipulation with determination
entelechy lost
virtue lies in defeat
pnuema the cost
sacrificed in deceit
too blind to see the sunset bleeds as life recedes
dull days begin
no strength within
the mind grows grim
Integration is the stimulation of imitation
But I’m afraid your blunder
If you care to wonder
If you dare to wonder
Is your world asunder

The Howl and the Glow
03:18
|

with every lapse in reason your judgment grows weak
your toleration of defeat is no longer measured in weight of tears
but now by the consent to reign your fears
the routine is regimented, adapt to the flow
a 40 hour pneuma coma’s fodder for the shows
before the keys hit the counter, the televisions on
collapsed into your seat, your soul begins to yawn
i can see through the blinds on your windows
faint flickering lights in urban catacombs
like pliant captives to the howl and the glow
you slowly become statues in your own fucking homes
memorizing dialogue to compete with the crowd
socio-apoplectic, your mouth becomes a shroud
in an aimless orbit every four years
your political action, empty as your leers
pull a fucking handle and it’s back to your cage
you watch the play in progress as you update on the plague
everything you want is here at high speed
and a savior on your wall for when you cattle breed.
i can see through the blinds on your windows
faint flickering lights in urban catacombs
like pliant captives to the howl and the glow
you slowly become statues in your own fucking homes

Cvltvral Cannibalism
03:55

vitiate degenerate
decadent hipster scum
you rattle on ad nauseum
over your latest obsession
cvlt!
subgenre sarcoma
malignant derivations, fuck!
your vapid screeds don’t digest
your presence festers our nest
cvltvral cannibalism
visons in our dreams
of gutting you from our scenes
as our toxic chainsaws scream
grinding flesh to vile streams
vacationers of the abyss
swarm in like a rakish flow
flooding the chasms in plastic
emetic parasitism
a holy desecration
of our unholy congregation
deserves septic lacerations
and ritual decapitation
solo: one-take putrid earache
