Gemini 04:15
I am the shore Stars are deformed Submerged in wave Is this apocalypse? Divining rod Is this the end of it? I am ruining All that’s become of it Hell’s wings flap Vigilance My god I’ve destructed I am one - of the Earth End of vigilance This desert - speaks to me Acropolis - of the ice Gets ready for the storm Destroying my heart Willing to give A single sight in eye For the chance to live In my mind’s disquise Grow - Live - Destroy Everything I am one - of the Earth End of Vigilance This desert - speaks to me Live - grow - sentence broke Essence I give away Grow - Live - Destroy Everything

Ultra Soul 04:23
Abandoned my religion Find a place for All the things I had lost In the ancient war -War of whores Mother can’t save me Every time I look See another one die Circle around the eclipse Of the ancient moon Becoming one with the Omniverse Ore in the rising force Mined until it spits up a tomb God has shed his skin See him for what it is I have reason to despise your soul Inherent ghost becomes your perception Bane of Ultra-Soul become the emergent Endless dream becomes the only quotient Ore in the rising force Mined until it spits up a tomb God has shed his skin See him for what it is Born - Scald - Raise - A new wild Circle around the... eclipse Becoming with... the omniverse She leaves a trail... of death Remembrence of... the deeds Every time I look And every time I die There is a new Star in the sky

Tyrannic 04:00
Yahweh Yahweh You’ve seen what’s ‘lo Upon the hill Marxism blows Its final will In the dead of day A warrior cloaks himself away Falconary Foe Winds into a plume Smokerise on dawn Mellow flood wanders on Yahweh Yahweh Forced to see an ocean Of fear and loneliness Isolated prospect This flood has gotten near Warning from the beacon sign Away its final dark Tyrannic, a horror-show The metaphysic tribes depart

May I feed the wizard in the West? Daylight - night life, I have killed the rest May I see the sorcerer undressed May have sacrificed but I know I did my best Night time - forest time, I live in the breast Conscious lives, manhood breathes, fight the urge to exist “Heart is moved,” “baby broke” - I can’t hear the rest Right-side, never die, everything, everything’s gone Fascist religofast, marxist, terrible whore Promise broke, have a smoke, think of what you’re living for Fuel these daily fires in my soul Excuse to leave a contract for the whole - world Right-side, never die, everything stays the same In a hole hide away, fight the things you crave Stay the same, quiet-talk, angel’s heart fades to grey Stay alive, breathe a while, everything’ll be okay Fuel these daily fires in my soul Excuse to leave a contract for the whole - world In a shell, innocence taken by the hate Why can’t I realize everything stayed the same?

Dutch 06:01
Ice on wind-swept plains Forest rearranged Quantify Titan’s Blade Mesmerized, gone insane Dutchmen raise the reich Terrorized and left to die Running through the rain Time forgot why they came Ice on wind-swept plains Forest rearanged Quantify Titan’s blade Mesmerized, gone insane They will see us But they don’t need us Pure emotion Divine devotion Dutchmen raise the reich Terrorized and left to die Running through the rain Time forgot why they came Burning - Fetus - Jesus Pray to your guardian’s Night - Froze Miracles beaming out an angel’s dick Megafiy your brain Then you’ll see my pain If you don’t feel, you’re blind Teach a new man the way of all time Dutch Dutch Dutch The dutchmen ride out!

I saw a flood at dawn Voracious Foe My children weep Their hand so weak Grab the... iron tusk Animal drinks... its own blood So wrong to eat of Holy mask forbids love My will is shaking, Clear into a haze Voracious Voracious Foe I am suicide, your only way out Give into the fortress of compounds Become, become, become the war Beacon of the Northern Winds Watch this flood consume Water-logged soil abloom I will make them pay for our sins Terminus of god begins Message of the soul, return to the luminix Heaven becomes a jail I have self-reliance, the club that breaks Vengeance in the deadman’s bones Eye is filled with scorn for the unknown Cry until the weeding begins I have self-reliance, hope defiance of fate Messenger of terminus consumed Where shall I leave the foe? On the crossbars hung below Step and step don’t fall off bridge Planks explode into broke twigs On the horsedrawn carriage winds Arm the sailors, Gemini twins With the sea I will float Make-shift raft becomes my home There’s a tiger in my bed Hope he doesn’t chomp my head Pray poseidon of the sea Where shall I leave the foe? On the crossbars hung below Step and step don’t fall off bridge Planks explode into broke twigs On the horsedrawn carriage winds Arm the sailors, Gemini twins
