The Mirror Mind
04:55
|
|||
|
The hiding, the flame
The distant winds from plateaus far
A vision of stillness
Enraptures this night
A constant haunting in this hermetic dream
Hollow, I feel this athame
Broken, lost from the decay
Sullen, in lands of harnessed pain
A phantom of ethereal fields decayed
And as the spirit dies
So the soul decries
Within emptiness despised
A priest of blackened light
Emerge now from void
Eviscerate humankind
Spread throughout the plains
Enlighten The Mirror Mind
Rage defined
Infernal catharsis
Blood of life reduced to decay
Manic incantations
Spellwoven deadly might
Howling insomnia in gardens foul
Calling to feed this malice
Majestic in anointed adornment
Of stolen spirits agonized

Never Rise
05:22
|

|
The old structure sat lifeless
Just like you did on that final day
The ephemeral spectacle of you
In your grotesque state of decay
It's still there...
...still frozen in it's gasping throes
The walls are cracked outside
They crumble from within
The floor is stained with bloodied hand-prints
As we crawled desperate within
I'm still here...
...still wandering in this horrid stasis
You can't see me, though
Or maybe I can't see you
I do see your rotten memory, however
Sitting decomposing in dusty sunlit gloom
I managed to make it to the woods
And collapse in an earthen trench
Nobody's cared to remove my remains
Just as you stew in your own growing stench
That's why, if you linger here somewhere
You are not haunted by my waste of demise
But since my soul is bound to our forsaken home
I have to watch your body never rise
Where did you go?
Do we exist parallel?
Or have you ascended?
And this is my private hell
I can't see you
Oh, my God, I can't

Fed To Monolith Seas
03:42
|
|||
|
Feral ones, oh ye who sear
The essence from my carcass
Within my abode far away
Beyond this institution's gates
Ye who detest all flesh abound
Rip the demon from my loins
In common malice, uncommon lusts
Spilling blood and soul into the soil
The wilderness calling
Timeless snow falling
Sordid disease in detestation
Still bleeding from holy molestation
Demon winds carry my fear
Away from fields of darkness
A chamber lit by bleak memory
Cradles time's depravity
In your rotten heart
Judgement days infinitum
Mortal torment fed to monolith seas
Miasmic clouds reach even me

Far into the bloodless
I burn as noxious poison
LOST
Yet no need to be found
Somehow seeping through
Into souls I forsake
DECAY
From my essence
Ghostly rememberance
Spread through wilderness
Ungrounded, disembodied
Lighting up the night
As a resurrection virus
Far away from bloodshed
I stir into infinity
All lives lived at once
As I slip into the guilty and the pained
OBEY
The tides that pull you away
All die who still want
All break who now observe
Peer within as I have now
Be forever as I seek to be
See the shackles in the glass
See the path beyond

In Utmost Grief
05:48
|
|||
|
There was a life once lived
In most earnest feeling
In utmost grief
Drowned in devil's poison
In which I never dremed
No I never once conceived
That life would cease
As did yours, then mine, in oblivion's agony
And casualties along the way
A massacre of God's swarming wrath
Did I damn us all?
A question I still feebly ask
Setting out to slay the weak
Within shadows seeking enemies
Looking under unhallowed stone
And in turn, turning on the meek
In that life once lived
I found pity on murderers disdained
Through intravenous metamorphosis
In which a demon I became
From the summit
From the crumbling plateaus
Of the end of life
I saw things so grotesquely new
Never have I gained
Never have I grasped
The reigns to take me home
As I still crawl on a bloody, desolate road

Embody Disembodiment
04:26
|
|||
|
Fall once again or die
When there's no room in heaven
Not to come to earth
But remain crawling low
And when shadows walk
Devoid of host
To visit those disembodied
Monsters become flesh
Sorrow becomes death
Remain once again inside
To nurture faith in pains
To venomize what lies within
When your heart's still crawling low
Become the shadow
Devour the black viscera of death
Embellish and embody disembodiment
Atrocity beneath a pulsating sky
Never to see the road to clearest plains
Grief becoming massacre
Here I decry
As the greyest beast
Turning your cross
Burning with your hate

Below The Wraiths
06:44
|
|||
|
Vile disciples lurking in intimate shadows
I've ridden winds of astral blackness
Only to escape to darker realms
Blotting out the dusk with my darkest night
Far into forests of lust and embers
Glowing low just for me
In far-reaching caverns beyond
Don't call to me now
For I am gone
Lost and bleeding willfully
The skies scream horrors in the distance
Turned away they cannot reach my heart
I blend into the cold earth below the wraiths
As they swirl above in malicious pestilence
Disembodiment, a spell I've woven
My journey into a bleak continuum
As a ghost of libertine disgust
Ecstasy beckons far from this life
Parallel I see the magick eyes
Serving to enchant my atrocious soul
Knowing I can fall into them again someday
And so a fog envelops my form
This chasm in this dead dimension
Has more life than the rotten earth itself
Fed by demons of wisdom and torment
I'll return and you'll observe
And yet your eyes will be forlorn
Dead in a spell of flesh and disease
Unable to ignite the dark sanctuary within me
Aeons away
I could take you there
And perhaps in some distant dream
We've already gone...

Панихида
by Krzysztof Drabikowski
supported by 4 fans who also own “In Utmost Grief”
La traversée du désert n'aura pas duré quarante jours mais quatre longues années... Avec Панихида, Батюшка renaît enfin de ses cendres et, bien que désormais seul (ou plus exactement entouré de deux chanteurs), Христофор accomplit un miracle. Il s'inscrit dans la continuité de Литоургиiа avec un black metal orthodoxe qui nous convie ici à une cérémonie dédiée aux morts. Sa vision est englobante : les mélodies, la gravité et le silence font toucher le paradis ; l'agressivité est luciférienne.
