They prey with teeth gnashing Grinning through vile lips In their mind, the mind can never be free. Cast out, these delusions set in. Crushing everything within. These days my dreams make more sense than what I see. Paralyzed from neck to feet Tortured every night until I break. Yelling out but I can't speak There's demons taking over me. Why can't I break free? The key lies in forgotten dreams. Broken, forced to my knees. My mind ripped away from things. Controlling over man is disease. Ha! Control over man is disease. Cast out these delusions set in Crushing everything within. These days my dreams make more sense than what I see. Let me sleep. This world spirals down the drain. Let me sleep.

Sense the air Tensing, feeling this aura of hate. Bloodlust full of pain How it penetrates There is no escape. Seems time is running in place. Eyes appear following Emulating memories. Slithering grotesque feeders. Tragedy replays, reforming my hell Pulling regret out of me. Feel them creeping. Slimy scheming feeders. The all kill for the chance to be free. Feel them creeping These filthy feeders. Eat at the core of many like me. Hungry for skill Hungry for talent. Many like me sacrifice things precious to them. Lock me up. Ate the key. This was the price for my dreams.

Black Room 03:08
Let me out. Searching for strength I found darkness I can't find my way out. Looking for an exit It doesn't exist. Confined to this black room Voices telling me to sing. Confined to this black room. Illusive reality. Let me escape. Leave me alone. Demons Grabbing me, pulling me Holding me back. Lost in a space where light is never found. Calling for help in a room defying sound. My vision's blurred. I've lost control. I decided to sing for these monsters Letting me free. I decided to stay with these monsters Letting me free. Demons Grabbing me, pulling me Holding me back. Racking my brain. Filth. Black. Filth. Me. Will I ever leave?

Pit Lord 03:14
Restless This life is a never ending battle, and I am the axis. No sleep when the skeletons rise Evil spirits plotting demise. Skulls will stack. Bodies will build. I'm going insane, sleepless. I'm haunted Tormented by the path of my conquest. I carry a burden That darkens my conscience. Situations where most cower. I am King. Go and die if you rely on another's beliefs. Many things conflicting Holding me back. Just leave me be. Down this path you won't last Your generous heart will bleed. As rage becomes me My resolve is more than me. I am fates worst enemy. I'm pissed, ravaged From crossing all the names off my black list. Divine cover their eyes The end of the light guiding flies. Situations where most cower, I am King Go and die you rely on another's beliefs. The choice is yours You live, you die.

Lunacy 04:52
I heard the voices Showed me the way. Induced to hate, reduced the fear. Eradicate. Tribulation was ahead to see. Crippling thoughts are dead to me. Darkness creeps at my feet. This is where I find my solace. Home. Faces move from out the shadows. Follow. Save me from this hell. Tongues and teeth in a jar for you to see. Laughing unconsciously. Birds without a chirp will never speak. Contorted disposition of what i thought was missing. Helpless My mind is dead at sea. Lost in a pit of deceit Slowly coping with the madness Finally setting me free. Can you deny the thirst for animosity? Pumping in your blood veins Lusting for crimson rain. I fear my dreams will waste. Striving to exist, blood in my fist My will fades away. Listen up boy, play a song for me. I'll show you strength that you've never seen. Listen up boy, play a song for me. I'll show you strength, that you've never fucking seen. What? This room is eerie Clearly grisly scene. Smoking endlessly. I won't be caught screaming. I've pushed and torn to gleam Transcend the gods we breathe. If my eyes glance the scene I'll end all of humanity. I crave power to save what's left inside of me.

Bloodlust runs rampant in the mind unseen Twisted in malice of this rancid being. Nothing but remnants I've become the fiend. This darkness forged into man It's consumed slowly, piece by piece, The former me. Deathwishes now enticing me. This mind, is not mine. Fractured gaze when life unwinds. This mind, will not thrive Such great hope, with flaws that blind. I starved for power to succeed in my dream Losing control when the fiend intervenes. Anguishes hold grips tight on me. This human turned to feast. This soul traded just for release. Enough. I won't be beat. Enclosed in a room, I weep. Senseless struggle in defeat. While outside this fiend, it creeps. Sanity eludes me. Twisting limbs so that I can't escape. Mangled body on a dinner plate. Fuck.

Time compression This realm of nothing. The coming of death lies at angel's deceit. Fate cannot be stopped. The worlds shall overlap. Time forever compressed. Freedom forever denied. The earth is condemned. A dark cloud suffocates all of humanity. The atmosphere is swallowed by darkness With a stench of mortality. Death, this is now the end How did we not see? A sinister being takes its reign For all living forms. Constructed in the abyss Comes a hateful creature of torment. Welcoming the Advent. Time compression This realm of nothing. The coming of death lies at angel's deceit. Fate cannot be stopped. The worlds shall overlap. Time forever compressed. Freedom forever denied Ascension to the unholy echelon. Weak spirits devoured in the name of the unborn son. Blood falls at the time of the curse As malice intention set to disperse. Blood falls at the time of the curse The idea of evil taking shape of harvest. Fleeting souls Will be consumed. Branded sacrifices. Build this tomb. Forget the instinct. The agony isn't going away Embrace this You're not going to escape. Time compression This realm of nothing. The coming of death lies at angel's deceit. Fate cannot be stopped.
