Ascension

Onward through the silence
The Apex; arise.
Shadows scream, indifferent.
Anew dawns the mind.
Ascension.
Ascension.
Onward through the absence
As the shroud gathers night.
Scream out through the torment,
As anew dawns the mind.
Ascension.
Ascend!
Silence in the chasm
Rend free from the light
Scream out in the blackness,
The abyss of night.
Cry out for liberation, ye abhorrent, vapid being
Cry out for release!
Futile cries, strewn into nothingness
Torrid swell, belching the demise of humankind
See!
See!
þær mon mæg
sorgende folc
gehyran hygegeomor,
hearde gefysed,
cearum cwiþende
cwicra gewyrhtu,
forhte afærde
See…the end of things
See…infinity
See…humanity
See…the gleaming light of hope is now
To the cosmos; ensorcelled with the infinite
Ascend!
Violently coalesced into nothingness
To be judged eternal; Eternally
To begin anew, and newly die; A New Age
Aeonic symphony, damnation's song
Ascend!

Wings of blight
Disparity of order
Where we stray
Is unknown but to us
Dream of night
To gather our new order
In the stray
To puncture through the crust
Devouring, deceived
Among us none are worthy
To gather, to bleed
To steer the errant reins
Storming, deceiver
With menace undeserving
To rend
To cleave
To steer the errant reins
Wings of blight
And carnivorous torture
Spate of dread
To seal the holy wrath
Dream of night
In unholy possession
To glean the crave
In glorious aftermath
Devouring
Deceived
Among us none are worthy
To gather
To bleed
To steer the errant reins
Storming
Deceiver
With menace undeserving
To rend
To cleave
To steer the errant reins
Among us none are worthy
Embalmed in holy rite
The sacrificial offering
On wings of holy blight
Among you we are judge, jury
Executioner's plight
To sacrifice the offering
On wings of holy blight!
The cowering
retreat
To Avalon in mercy
The pestilence
disease
Lies lifeless on the frame
Storm through the Aether
With menace undeserving
To rend
To cleave
To seal the last of days
Devouring
Deceived
Among us none are worthy
To gather
To bleed
To steer the errant reins
Storming
Deceiver
With menace undeserving
To rend
To cleave
To steer the errant reigns

Dīgol wīsdōm ġetitelod

Ēalā ġāniende mūþ, in þætte is deorc ond lēoht
Opena mīn ferhðes ēage mid þæt ġifu of ġesihþe
Receive thy gift
And glean from the forbidden tree
Swallow the serpent’s nectar
In contempt, in despair, in despite
In contempt, in despair, in despite
Oh, gaping maw…
Enter the exalted realm and peer into eternal deep
Visions of outer dark
Writhing, choking, spitting, gnashing, stretching, worming,
ripping the mind apart
'Almighty being ov painted light'
The great beyond within my grasp
‘Awakened eyes to see beyond our time'
I am all of mind and sight!
Stretched beyond the limits of existence
Torn asunder from the womb of existential thought and mind
Divine entities drawing near
On the wings of fire and light
See, know, Be, know
Dread, dread, dread, dread
Void without shape, shape within void
Mirrored existence, thousand-fold consciousness
Behold! the omniscience of the cosmos!
Drift through the unknown
Celestial dead zone
Bleared stare at the eschaton
Mind gouged by thoughtless horrors!
A solar apex guides the way to endless journey
The unwilling movement towards the despair of Æons
Event horizon; imminent!
Locked inside the ergosphere
Past the static limit
Worlds watch as the dark devours
I am devoured
I am devoured
All is none, King is naught
Oh!
As the mind's eye shifts into a subatomic realm
Neuronic pathways reconstruct
Patterns of existence begin to collapse
Forever cycling through the sequence of space-time
deorc, lēoht
Suddenly!
Color
Shape
Form
Suddenly,
Shape, Form
and the white
Suddenly!
Wisdom and might
Hēahġesceaftum
Hēahġesceaftum
All knowledge sown as I have seen
Arkane wisdom revealed to me
I have become flesh on high!
Lo and Behold!
I have journeyed through a new dimension
An untouched universe
A haven (haven) for the likes of the divine
Peace,
Unfathomable peace
Kept, enveloped state
Peace, peace
Adon!
All else is naught
but futile thought
Arkane wisdom
The end of time was mine to know
Implore future sight
Taken back through void and dark
Impenetrable Darkness
An ever-impending chaos
A fear unbeknownst to the likes of man
A clarity, unfathomable
We entreat ye
Adon
To once again be as man
Adon
Stripped from me the seer's sight
No longer god among flesh
We are the dust beneath our own feet
Divine right our greatest sin
A ruler’s spawn in sodden fields
folly of man, made clean in death
death the only rule o'er life
Death the only right we have
Death the only right we have
Death the only right we have
Death the only right we have
Embraced by universal dawn
Death of volition, humanity fulfilled

The Azimuth
Aphelion of ennobled flesh
Horizon born
And yet still doomed to die
In fields of black
Celestial planes of rot
We storm the gates
And blind cruel Azathoth
The Azimuth
Locus of eternal flame
Conceals decay
From vantage o'er gods
Alastor’s reign
O’er temple’s mount of sessile ray
Inveterate strain
Of time’s imperial haunt
In this way
The Azimuth emerged
And doomed the born
To walk among the earth
In this way
The Azimuth emerged
And doomed the born
To walk among the earth
The Azimuth
Recriminate the light of day
In age gone past
Spreads wings across the gates
And bounds the souls
Teeming in their lifeless waste
To rise again
And blind cruel Azazel
Cursed
Life and Death
In this way
The Azimuth emerged
And doomed the born
To walk among the earth
The Azimuth
Banishing his noble flesh
Empirical, and yet still doomed to die
An article
of Kings and army led to rise
And meet the slain
Where no pure flesh ov life survives

Axiom
03:48
|
|

The air of silence,
indescribable guise.
The sound of nothing,
Unbearable.
Behold!
The new instrument of impending doom
Torrential force of consumption,
gathers all
Creating one
Eye of cosmos
Inner sanctum
Depth of darkness
Scythe of the black cleaving light at the seam
mouth of empty, full of souls
Consume!
The screams of untold billions verberate
Amalgam!
Conglomerative rivers flow to
create a wealth of new forms
Injection of truth
into mind
Arkane synergy,
an access unparalleled
The mind's eye subverted,
led into annihilation
Swirling,
warping,
stretching,
writhing,
blinding,
gasping,
As the light escapes
Swirling,
warping,
stretching,
writhing,
blinding,
gasping,
As the light escapes
The unseen Axiom, divine.
Unfathomed phantom of the mind
beorhtra ond blacra
hwitra ond sweartra
Dark and Light
swa him is ham sceapen ungelice,
englum ond deoflum.

Æon
11:03
|
|
||
Infinite perpetuation
Strains of terminal chaos,
interlacing.
Collapsing the very fabric of
All that was
All that is,
And all that will be
The Æon
The end of the age
From beyond the black
Great steed riding forth from Abaddon
Progression into darkness,
endless.
The weeping nebulae
cast themselves into
gravitational decimation.
All is silence.
Silence.
Silence
But there is a light,
ever and anon
Peering through the axial source
ov impending Kataklysm
Clouds of ash form above the earth
Birthing flaming masses of matter
Plummeting towards the terrestrial landscapes,
All is devoured by eternal flame
Eternal flame
Eternal flame
Their seismic wake
crumbles every kingdom,
And every manly ambition
returns to dust
Universal wormholes
Finally revealed
The remains
of humanity
thrust into
The swirling vortex
Hell awaits!
Dyneð deop gesceaft, ond fore dryhtne færeð
wælmfyra mæst ofer widne grund.
Hlemmeð hata leg, heofonas berstað,
trume ond torhte, tungol ofhreosað.

ond steorran swa some stredað of heofone,
þurh ða strongan lyft stormum abeatne.
A holy embrace
A whisper of the divine
Comfort is found,
Uninterrupted.
Streaming swiftly throughout
the apex of world’s end.
end of the age
Aeon; the trumpet sounds!
