"With Unfettered Tread"
Death to the flesh - thresh to progress!
Death to the flesh - thresh to progress!!
Death to the flesh - thresh to progress!!!
Death to the flesh - thresh to progress!!!!
Immaculate rejection
Abortion of conjecture
Deliverance from oppression
Through acts of transgression
Conviction to end the astringent
Imprecation by the resistant
Interpretive insistence
Leads to spiritual subsistence
Inhabiting the flesh
The consequence of consequence
Invocate the god within
The price of life we must contend
To surpass the constraints of time
And transcend to the divine
A legacy of inherent grace
Disguised by an intolerable face
Intrinsic defamation
A flagrant convalescence
Supportable contagions
Esoteric misconceptions
Open this coffin - I'm suffocating
Deliver me from this pestilent world
Encompass me with the light of conception
I travel this path to be reborn
Lifeless life disintegrating
Disposal of a withering soul
Eternal damnation (a contrived image)
Purge me from an irrelevant role
Pillage my mind and poison my heart
Break these chains and open the doors
Bury the hatchet to score the skull
Death is relief as life is restored
The finite within the infinite
Desires life - retires life
Dying inspires the finding
Of inner light
(Solos)
Dying while trying to
Conquer the strife
Trying while dying to
Not take your life
Darkness descends like
The clouds of a storm
There's no solace in knowing
That we were forewarned
By ceasing to breath
We're becoming de-ceased
A spiritual bondage
To flesh is released
A morbid affliction
Recycling demise
There's no comfort in death
When the funeral is life!

Fever Dream Ritual

"Fever Dream Ritual"
Tablets of creation
Written there in stone
Forged within clay vessels
With earth was made a home
Keepers of the travesty
The watchers of the skies
The heaven's share of "at most fear"
The heart is filled with lies
Seers of a dawning age
Transcendence of the mind
The flesh becomes the obstacle
Die to live or live to die
(Solo)
Tablets of creation
Written there in stone
Forged within clay vessels
With earth was made a home
Beneath the dirt lay coffins
Steeped in rot and bones
Dog treats for the future
The gods made bowls for thrones
Keepers of the travesty
The watchers of the skies
The heaven's share of "at most fear"
The heart is filled with lies
Seers of a dawning age
Transcendence of the mind
The flesh becomes the obstacle
Die to live or live to die
Antediluvian - flushed but some survive
Trans-fig-ured, cult-ur-ed, and dis-eased
The ladder must be climbed
Like robots and the circuitry
The guts have been exposed
The double helix spiral staircase
Creaks with a maddening
Fever Dream Ritual!
Fever Dream Ritual!!
Fever Dream Ritual!!!
Fever Dream Ritual!!!!
(Solo)
Fever Dream Ritual!
Fever Dream Ritual!!
Fever Dream Ritual!!!
Fever Dream Ritual!!!!
(Solos)
Keepers of the travesty
The watchers of the skies
The heaven's share of "at most fear"
The hearts are filled with lies
Seers of a dawning age
Transcendence of the mind
The flesh becomes the obstacle
Die to live or live to die
Wars of gods and wars of men
It seems it's all the same
A fighting with the "sacred laws"
With nothing being gained
Convoluted is the scheme
The masters as the slaves
That which serves in turn condemns
The ragged fated days
Fever Dream Ritual!
Fever Dream Ritual!!
Fever Dream Ritual!!!
Fever Dream Ritual!!!!

Decimation (Blood Tithe)

"Decimation (Blood Tithe)"
Humanity's a social disease
Spread by procreation
Enter the realm of genocide
A solution to stagnation
Time to reap the sheep of gods
The slaves of conformation
Obliterate the human race
Chastisement by persuasion
Death to all who oppose or bow
No partiality endowed
I pour from the cup of wanton clout
Until the flesh is disavowed
I'm the shepherd of elimination
Empirical domination by
Systematic abomination
Come forth and receive
The flogging of your life
Whether you're spawned by darkness
Or are a child of the light
All followers of any faith
Evil or divine
Shall never circumvent
My hatred towards mankind
I hate you all!
I'll kill you all!
Espouse the hate I generate
Belief in my cause will extricate
Implore my gracious gift innate
To never walk adrift in chains
Aggregate for defecation
Concede to my will of expurgation
Pernicious choice of separation
From tangent ties of correlation
Time to rid the bowels of human waste
Spill all blood - extravasate
Souls will be unbound to reach their fate
By means of death brought by my rage
(Solos)
Decimation (blood tithe)
Depopulation overdrive
Every year eliminate
One tenth of every slave
The means to dominate
Cognitive dissonance
Conflicting narratives
Egoic matters shattered
(Solos)

Violence as Aphrodisiac

"Violence as Aphrodisiac"
When weaving the tapestry
While tending the fields of creation
The doorway is not an abode
Seek not to nest in poison
The sting of flesh robust
The pathways 'ever entangle
The spell of illusion - a web
To twist the mind impure
Traipsing through the corpses
By means of fiends
And thresher steads
The harvesting engorges
A cornucopia of entrails
With prophecies a looming
A fortune teller's telling
A prophet's profit grooming
Aesthetic ascetics in blooming
A silent instituting
Regards from the ancient abyss
A salutation of salivation
A salutation of salivation
A salutation of saliva-"..."
A salutation of salivation
A salutation of salivation
A salutation of...
Tethered to oblivion
With teeth that gleam
Of cheap chagrin
The tearing tears
And weeping woes
That gnaw the maw
Of beggars' foes
Rescind the vagabond
The meaning of the dreaming
Seems to be vision quest
Relaying a slated tomb of doom
The violence - it beckons
The violence - it reckons
The violence - enlivens
The violence as aphrodisiac!
Free the glee
With a killing spree
Heed the deed
Of misanthropy
Feed the greed
For debauchery
Seed the need
To sow the stifling weeds
There are tongues
In these trees
With severed limbs
Discarded
Becoming smoldering ashes
An etheric consciousness
Haunted
Grappling with clutches
Of madness
Writhing without any
Vastness
Procurement of lechery
The raving paving the way
A culpable anthology
A miscreant of misery
A corrugated lunacy
Corruptible idolatry
A novice shuffling in the lurch
Astutely sitting on a perch
To mockingly besmirch the mirth
Of the innocuous naive
Once upon a battle ground
The eyes are drooping
Like a hound
Obnoxious rumbling in the air
A motive with a dire stare
To seek the hand that
Feeds the crown
And frown because
The crow is drown
A shell of winsome bold attack
Violence as aphrodisiac!

Tonguing the Amputee

"Tonguing the Amputee"
Nailed upon the cross
A lamb to wipe away the sins of man
Predestined to be crucified
A god incarnate suicide
A god of such enormous wrath
Loves so much he kills himself
A fisherman of our souls we find
He's chumming the waters
Casting...
Mental disease
Appease without a care
Infest like fleas
Upon a wild hare
Dying to breed
The need is not deterred
Implant the seed
Then heed and cancel...
The albatross hangs around their necks
As they're caught within his net
Proficient act of telling lies
Reflections on premeditated signs
Bubbling forth like the fury
Of ten-thousand fiery suns
With millions of sycophants in tow
Pleading to be freed from...
Mental disease
Appease without a care
Infest like fleas
Upon a wild hare
Dying to breed
The need is not deterred
Implant the seed
Then heed and cancel...
Abort the swine
Imbibe the brine
Contort the mind
Deprive the hive
(Solos)
Abort the swine
Imbibe the brine
Contort the mind
Deprive the hive
Nailed upon the cross
A lamb to wipe away the sins of man
Predestined to be crucified
A god incarnate suicide
A god of such enormous wrath
Loves so much he kills himself
A fisherman of our souls we find
He's chumming the waters
Casting...
Dread upon the constellations
Mankind in turmoil for millennia
Malediction reigns where fear resides
Cursed before and after death

"Veiled in Flesh"
Mortuary feelings
'Tis the time for chilling
As I ponder being
With what has stopped breathing
Lust begins to fill me
Arousing me to a blue throbbing
Exposing the corpse
Revealing the ever appealing
Naked demise
As I open up the freezer
I let my mind drift with ease
Observing as the body thaws out
I can hardly wait to see
How the dead bitch will come closer
To what I desire most
Thankless is the living partner
Dead ones make the perfect hosts
Fuck them without dealing
With the "after-glow"
Come then watch some t.v.
Then fall asleep and dream free
While the hormones are satisfied
Love is nothing special
Sex just takes a shovel
(Solo)
Mortuary feelings
Necrophiliac dealings
Pay for instant victims
Freshly put to rest
In order to "get some"
Rape the forever willing
But not before the killing
The "little death" is thrilling
But total death's the best
When it's time
For the veiled in flesh
To become the hollow spoils
The smell is so erotic
The touch is so divine
An absolute pleasure to treasure
Ardor of the funeral parlor

"Languishing in Ligature"
I'm not happy
With my being
There's no saving
So quit your lame praying
I do not believe
In a deity
We just die then rot
No matter what is lost
(Solos)
I cannot fool myself
With trickery
That others see
No proof or need
For sanctity
The preciousness
Does not exist
There is no time
For contemplation
Though I keep
My mind busy
With mundane tasks
To occupy it
I run away from
Everything
There is no time
For contemplation
Though I keep
My mind busy
With mundane tasks
To occupy it
I run away from
Everything
I chase my tail
To catch my breath
I wander along
But never wonder
How I even
Came to be
To ponder
The living mystery
(Solos)
I'm not happy
With my being
There's no saving
So quit your lame praying
I do not believe
In a deity
We just die then rot
No matter what is lost
I cannot fool myself
With trickery
That others see
No proof or need
For sanctity
The preciousness
Does not exist
There is no time
For contemplation
Though I keep
My mind busy
With mundane tasks
To occupy it
I run away from
Everything
I do not see any beauty
Surrounding me
All is a sullen spark
For the dark
Cold is the space
Where I remain
(Solo)
Stark...
Opaque...
Grey...
Dismay...
Bleak...
Grim...
Grief...
Truth.
