Overseer
Transiting through its new phase
Behind the veil of time, hidden in darkness and mystery
With a wandering eye searching for signs of humanity
What it finds is conflicted untruth, rape and disease
Overseer
Transiting through its next phase
Transmitting all that it sees
The hidden eye soaking up our tragedies
From the oldest of times man was a child of the stars
From the dirt down below we reached for the heavens above
But the contacts we made set fire to all of our dreams
And the fruit of our seed rotted to ash on the tree
-Speech-
Gods vaporising all the peasants to waste
The golden hand that holds you down to mythical fallacy
Delivering the self destructive force of our conscience
Ripping all it can out from the womb of a virgin world
Despite what is inside echoing the state of all catastrophic embracing
The incompetence is clear etched across the face of every medicated zombie here
We have forsaken our chance at an infinite destiny wrapped in acute denial
And greed
Overseer
Shifting its focus again
Dividing the children of man
The hidden eye architect of tragedy

Shiva's Dream
07:51
|
|||
Breaking out of this chrysalis bathed in new life
See the world through reanimated eyes
Evolution is done, waste by-product of time and light
As the cycle rolls on
Feeling human inside, contracting iris within the light
Living prominent dreams, new born foetal reality screams
Door is opening to the next stage of us
All that was broken down, scattered pieces of the dead regime
Fairytale debris field, depicting chaos driving change
Build upon the ruins and decay, fixated on recreation
While Shiva dreams innocent in catastrophic R.E.M
Blessed is the tune of the open wound
Singing songs of sacrifice and lessons learnt
Call my broken will to arms
To rise against the dust and build an order out of shed blood
Reaching undiscovered heights and greater depths of understanding
As we’re writing off a history of broken dreams and shattered forms
All that never made it through was not designed for transformation
This dreaming is infinite, this mind (will) forever be unknown
Blessed is the tune of the open wound
Singing songs of sacrifice and lessons learnt
Call my broken will to arms
Dividing all the dust to separate the facts from what is known
Reach a renaissance in flames
Burning for the glory of it all
Casting forth to where the air is still
Dreaming deep within the cosmic hush
Dream in flames!
The apex reaches for an ounce of sunlight
The golden crown upon a moments head
We are the ones with a morbid fascination
Forsaken everything we’ve learned from death
So as quickly as it came it will wash away
The descent was sweet at first
But there is no chance of making it back
Nothing is golden now, bitter cracks in the foundation
Artifice broken down to expose the face of dying shame
Nothing is worthy here, bloated world is rank corruption
As Shiva’s dream manifests to tear down fractured walls again
Blessed is the tune of the open wound
Singing songs of sacrifice and lessons learnt
Call my broken will to arms
To rise against the dark consuming everything that ever was
Every end fills a need that’s beyond all control
Evolution becomes a waste by-product of time and light
As the cycle rolls on
Feeling human inside, contracting iris within the light
Living prominent dreams new born foetal reality screams
Door is opening to the next stage of us

Lost in Fables
05:11
|

All we’ve become
Dream wasted dreams here
Now we’re just faded memories, fantasy
Rising up out of the sand dunes
Far beneath the crushing waves of history
They were lost in fables
Faded vision in the corners of the mind
An ancient world lost to time
Noble brains searching through the outer space
Suffering to find a way to bend their prophesy
But for all their prayers and their sacrifices
An end will come to claim the day
Final judgement from the stars
Sends all beneath
Rendering all history remade
So vie indifference and die ignorance intact
Apocalypse will blacken out the sun
With waves that swallow all concerns
But seasons keep their pace
As empires rise and fall
And surely we will see the day when all that we know
Everything is cast into the emptiness down below
Once again
We are lost in fables
Faded visions in the corners of the mind
An ancient race lost to time
Noble brains searching through all that remains
Suffering to find an answer to the mystery
But for all our eyes we can not see
That they were us before this history

Through the Abyss
05:23
|
|||
If I ever see the sun again I’ve discovered the hidden road home
Or these are my final words....
Bathed in the absence of light
Washed with the darkest uncertainty
Withering my will to fight
Find a way through the abyss
Across this labyrinthine mystery
Don’t hold on to defeat it rots the vision
A wretchedly self destructive symptom of your atrophy
Build on your grand design even when everything collapses on the outside
Face the void and emptiness that dwells within your mind
We are lost within nothingness
Disconnected, frozen in an endless stream
Reaching forward try to penetrate infinity to see again
The visions in golden dreams and breathe philosophy
The suffering is a catalyst for change transforming me
Will the strength of all seven senses, ignite your inner fire
Awaken in a field of resurrection
Creating death and love, hope and fear, wrath and entropy
Master your grand design
Master the universe and carve your own demise
Face the void and emptiness that dwells beneath you and fly!

Beyond the Persian Veil
04:50
|

Blood soaking in the cracks to fertilize the desert
Crimson sand sticking to my mind
Veins are empty squeezing out the final drops of sacrifice
A sombre gift to the masters of our space and time
Bonded to the carnage
Faces carved and rent with fear
Must survive this sacrificial new world ordained in blood
Or die
We travelled half a world away
To bring no swift or no subtle death to the innocent
To claim the prize or just a piece of the divine offering
Handed down from the heights of the deepest ones, hidden undefined
Body’s not my own
Hand without control
This heart is close to freezing
Learn to see the cost of divinity
That a soul is impossible to purchase
Hold on to your hope and humanity
All that’s left before vultures come to feast on all
Bonded to the carnage
Faces lined and red with fear
Must survive this sacrificial new world crusade
Although my eyes are open wide the dark is all I see now
AS silence fills the emptiness inside
Replacing all desire that was left of me

From the End of Heaven
05:05
|

Reaching,
Into the darkness in the cracks
Within the corners of this deep abyss
Forging keys, release the exits from this nightmare
That we’re slowly sinking in
Carving avenues for freedom from this prison for the mind
Wicked eyes focus on the broken, beaten and the suffering
Keep your eyes open for the subtle weaknesses within your chains
And hope for all it’s worth that your emancipation from this hell awaits
Things are never going to be the same
this race will end by the silence of the jackal and the rhythm of the martyr
Undermining all that’s sovereign, intercept all the rising
Erasing traces of the past, withholding visions
So the lines will slowly fade away
Manipulating the arcane into a system of demise
Holding on to the heresy
Defiant to crack the source of humanity
For so long we have bled in the name of the unknown
To see beyond the veil
We are the profane ones who chase our tail in search of mystery
While enemies are poisoning the seed
Through artificial cell manipulation
Conquering of the human race
Through genetic weakness implanted in the DNA
The gullible will worship their trials in service to the master race
Wicked eyes focus on the broken, beaten and suffering
Keep your eyes open for the subtle weakness within the chains
And hope for all it’s worth that your emancipation still awaits
Things are never going to be the same

Gods of Eden
05:23
|
|||
Descended from the stars
Wreaking devastation
From foreign worlds they came
To exploit the riches of the soil
Without reckoning
Their lust in greed inflicts a well worn process of enslavement
But it all shows up in time
The Gods of Eden
Languishing a top of the stolen throne of the slaves
We fared nothing from emptiness
Before the whole world collapsed at our feet
Blood sacrifice for a nervous world
Unto new agents that control it
Twisting our minds into fear through despair and disease
But it all shows up in time
They tore down Eden
Reconstruct on top of the stolen world of the slaves
Orphaned in divine chaos
Divine philosophy
With maligned ends
And we’re shifting sands of time
Searching for our freedom stained
Nothing here is divine free from pain
Gods of Eden
And Eden became earth
Gods of Eden
After all the years that passed her
Gods of Eden
That deposed the God’s creation
Gods of Eden
And washed away the blood with tears
