The outsider walks among us - Who does his shadow belong to? I can feel his whispering in every pore Equip the heart - The blood cuts like knives in my veins I can hear his screaming from within the core A man reborn without any hands Unable to touch or to create - Unable to destroy Into the depths - Into the depths of total self emptiness Into the depths - Descend through the bottomless hole lacking future or past Know who you are supposed to be, with self aware immunity comes False Hope Cruelty The flames grew high and wide - To celebrate the god who died Let us all rejoice with a feast upon his corpse The razorblade cut deep and slow - To celebrate the god below Our only choice was to wander towards eternal sin A beast reborn without any claws Unable to touch or to create - Unable to destroy Are these memories mine? One thousand tales in my head - One thousand screams in my dreams One thousand tales in my head - One thousand screams in my tears Into the depths - Into the depths of total self emptiness Into the depths - Descend through the bottomless hole lacking future or past Know who you are supposed to be, with self aware immunity comes False Hope Cruelty

Awaken O crudest light Let your shadows grow around us Boon or bane, bliss or pain? Lifeless you stumble deathless you crumble Everything that, we've been through Just because time goes on shall we forget? Everyone has their own pain Hope and joy is overrated just as drugs will overcompensate it! In the corners of the void - We all slumber The skies are circling - I have seen these clouds before... Here in the swamp of shit Sinking into eternal torment Suffocate, asphyxiate Drowning in musky, murky waters Once upon a time we smiled Brought up to feed on obscuration On the hill of kings long ago Failed to see there is an end and no happily ever after! In the corners of the void - We all slumber The skies are circling - I have seen these clouds before... In the corners of the void - We all slumber The skies are circling - I have seen these clouds before... BLISS IS A HOAX!!!

This is it, I can feel the end approaching Step by step, the shapes get fewer and fewer Endless visions, voices and premonitions my mind is an omnivore Devouring every form Shapeshifter - Shapeshifter! Dawn after dawn, tides of anguish comes with the light Dystopian cascades, the feelings were not buried deep enough To abysmal dreamscapes they go only to surface with the sun I am nocturnal Shapeshifter - Shapeshifter! So I put on one of my many masks, a ghoulish transformation... I used to fear the dark, because I could not see, but now I fear the light Eremiomania my cure I used to fear the dark, because I could not see But now I fear the light, because it is blinding me Peer into the fog of shadows Hidden you are and hidden you will stay So far away, yet one can almost grasp it Verge to eternal sleep, urge so everlasting Devoided, Devoided! ...and for a few seconds came harmony So I put on one of my many masks, a ghoulish transformation...

Apocrypha 05:58
Hidden deep inside your very essence Dwells a burden, solemn and grave To read the first carved symbols, another meaning revealed To hunt the meaning of life Brightless mind so acid, eyes and ears so empty of perception Every dusk and dawn stars are gained and lost To vomit the most seething of hate upon all of mankind To feel it as it flows down the cracking spine of the world! Mirage enigma fire shall be your downfall Look past the flames and you will see a blank hollow nothingness Miasma set ablaze, angelic perdition Specious so fallacious, keep on gazing at the sun Breath in the putrefaction as it spreads From mouth to mouth it feeds and breeds heavily To drink, to eat, to vomit, to feel, to see, to hear To follow, to die, to reincarnate as nothing Tearing the sky apart - We are not the orbits, only in our heads We are stuck in circles In the land of the blind - The one-eyed one is king and queen Read between the lines - Read between the lines...

No more shall we smile - No more shall we cry Only float in apathy, slumber with open eyes - A gaze of avolition Poverty of will - (A)void the sun Repentance will not heal, indifferent is every thought - Your heart is mute The redeemer dismantled - Sole purpose complete Now it is time for the second part, the creator lies in his grave Let´s continue on the path of gloom The Creation of Destruction The Destruction of Creation Shattered are our souls and shattered are our dreams The Creation of Destruction The Destruction of Creation Put out your flame with silence and with grief I do not remember your face Did you use to be someone close to me or just a stranger? If you where a loved one, why do you keep haunting me?

Once risen, the dawn of days made all mortal Rotting, dying O Helios, shine new light, breathe old air Kiss, a kiss is all I desire Drain my essence, hollow my soul Slither your tongue and cry Shackle these bones let them hang from the gallows The noose will bring me peace Habeas Corpus - Habeas Spiritus A guise taunts me, my perception is my foe Deceiver, trickster “O Helios let me gaze upon your might I am merely dust at your feet” Inbred corruptor, a fatherless child Thrown into fires and blades Behold the leviathan harbinger Writing his guilt in the sand

Wings of Wax 07:07
My dreams are falling - Deeper and deeper Fly towards the darkness - The journey of vexation Ignite the path - ...and the blood of I Endless seas of burning candles - Pyro-matic matrix Wings of wax take me to the chthonic stylites Mania shifter - Famine orb drifter Chose to practice hubris - Instead of love Blinded by contempt - ...and some myth about a sunset that justifies all Cherub - Man, ox, lion - Eagle - Evangelize, fantasize Gospels - Sermons - Dogmas - Piss-poor Hypothesis Seraph - Holy! Holy! Holy! - Judgement - Madman on a throne Create - Mistakes - Lunacy - For every act and farce, every miracle... Mankind have to suffer! - Blame us for your stupidity Sodom, Gomorrah, Babylon - A Flood or two here and there Endless seas of burning candles - Pyro-matic matrix Wings of wax take me to the chthonic stylites It is over now - The tears are drained As is the virtue - This is it my friend Doom bringer! - Death master!

He seated himself next the masters, the masters of lies They spat gales of hollow words, back and forth without remorse Keepers of secrets, a coven of inherent bitterness Sunless the planes all around The putrid air, a reminder of all that is meaningless Please do not make him forget, when this is over there is warmth Kith and kin, roots like veins, bleeding Underneath, skin and soil, only wounds! Voices and visions a struggle to ignore l'appel du vide! - Dark Trembling Solace As the apprentice finally gave in, a black hole formed within his soul Draining the masters of their lies Now he saw, him and them, in hell - Together, forever, burning! Unchained suppressed anger bleeds into the sadness Losing vital remnants of the past Heartache cannot be shown only fury Confessed hatred towards the makers design - Origin denied Roots like veins they bleed and feed on your misery Gloomy, dark hallowing winds - Overcast, doomsday like rains Tombstones and hearses - Handshakes so stiffened Lifelong terror, every grave a tear - Darkened aura joy equals fear Starving to keep alive... ...and all flowers and life wither, I wish everyday could be like this

Am I alive, dead or dreaming? I do not know Openly lurking amidst the crowd, I stare at people yet they do not notice me Must I relapse to regain control? My skin a field furrowed with scars Ploughed by a yoke, a yoke pulled by blades Reaping the void and sowing the pain so serene Omnipresence of an evil god - Tides of darkness, doom arrival Memories that makes me want to puke - Shrieking, pounding headaches in my Sleepless nights that seem to last forever Submit give up give in My remedy a blade - Cold and sharp it comes to my aid Fangs of silver buried in my flesh - Chewing, gnawing, feasting, feeding Hollow eerie maws of pitch black fear - Spitting, hissing pus and mucus Bathe in slime and ooze! As the night came, the ritual began As the moonlight flickered so did I So painful yet sweet, the iron smell froze time So shallow yet deep, catharsis sublime Shards and fragments of a mangled life floating further and further away... My remedy a blade - Cold and sharp it comes to my aid

Soaring endeavour, ponder your way through the night Swaying meditation, your thoughts raptured Dreamscape deliverance, from one world to the next To astral freedom, from astral free doom Watch you corpse as your soul departs, a levitational embrace Feel your flesh as it burns so bright, like a torch in the night Trees of old swaying back and forth, like someone hanging from the gallows Take my hand my love, let’s close our eyes and fly Levitate and linger, big as a mountain Stop asking questions of consuming desperation Why deny your denial, maybe it is a denial worth denying? Watch you corpse as your soul departs, a levitational embrace Feel your flesh as it burns so bright, like a torch in the night Trees of old swaying back and forth, like someone hanging from the gallows Take my hand my love, let’s close our eyes and fly FLY!!! DIE!!!

Del I : Minne Jag har haft sorger och gjutit tårar Men den rysligaste dagen i mitt liv äro denna Jag är i syndarens närhet Självmördaren är här, han är här! Jag kan ej bliva mig lik igen ...och kanske vore det också bäst Jag har varit uppe och sett den döde O min Gud, vilken syn - Memoira - Memoria! Del II : Jag är förkrossad Jag vill ej bli sörjd och saknad - Även om ni var min kärlek och värme I stillhet vill jag vila - I tomhet vill jag vandra, Jag är förkrossad! Jag är i änglarnas närhet - Jag ber om förlåtelse... Jag är i demonernas skönhet - Jag ber om förståelse... Era tårar bad jag ej om - Om livet var en lek, låt dem då skratta och dansa Del III : Jag fruktar jag blir galen Här vilar han den unge självmördaren - Över honom ser jag försonaren Förlåt mig för sorgen som jag ger - Jag fruktar jag blir galen Era tårar bad jag ej om - Om livet var en lek, låt dem då skratta och dansa
