Dishonoured King

Help us
Kill us
Change us
Damn us
Never hear the cries of innocents
We love and lust the bodies in ashes
Denied the throne
Shadows teach me all I know for salvation
Titans fall again
Culling the daemon’s throne
The Sultan of gods awaits
Outside the realms of time
The god king raised his sword of hate
The mad king proclaims
The dawn of man will fall
And desire the creatures of hate
Delighted by the stench of them all
Dishonoured after all
Hearts and minds are strained as the rain falls from the skies
Gods and Kings meet their rise and fall through their eternal lies
Titanas cadunt [Titans fall]. Burn on the cross of senseless blood
Saluta regi [Hail to the king]. Burn as the kingdom comes.
As he proclaims
The dawn of man will fall
And desire the creatures of hate
Delighted by the stench of them all
Dishonoured after all
He’s been denied the throne
Denied the throne
Burn at the hands of the mad king
Selfish lies fed to the crown (to the crown)
Shadows teach me all I know for salvation
Titans fall again
Burn at the hands of the mad king

Faith In The Faceless
06:16

Stars lost in the void
From my eyes
Glow so far away
Come undone from dark-to-dawn
Release me now,
The symphony calls me home
Hear them call like the last
The torture of a thousand worlds screaming through the glass
Nobody knows the burden we stow
The contemplation that’s grasped by ghosts
Hiding in the shadows
Tell me why
Sacred shrine lost in the fog
My guide wanders directionless, searching on and on
Night and day, time withers thin
Mind untethered with memories of what could’ve been
Tell me why
I hold faith in the faceless voices in my mind
Drown in the oceans of the void
Swimming among the elder gods I’m told
Voices fester my mind,
screaming and churning and gripping me tight
Faces smeared and warped
Disfigured souls leave their scars
Into the fog, the shadows flee
Release me from agitation
Free myself from the flow of the unconscious mind
Until the day when the sun will rise
(Animus est cruchem suam ferre)
Breathing faith into the faceless voices among the stars
(Animus est cruchem suam ferre)
Bringing fate into the naked void, screaming I gasp for air
Tell me why
I hold faith as the days pass

The dead take pity on my soul
I walk on the stone path cold and alone
Far from the ghosts of my blood gone
Withdrawn from the sun, please save me
Dea, breathe in new fire
That I may walk alone
Failing inside
The scrolls of sins in stone
Be one
End this cycle of self-abuse
Conceive the lies and the tortured smiles i’ve known
Take my heart and bleed it dry
The heavens look down upon my soul in shame
Dea, breathe in new fire
That I may walk alone
Failing inside
The scrolls of sins in stone
The scrolls of sins in stone!
Fear silent demise
Feel desire fill my lungs
This can’t last
Take me under
Desolate thoughts through the fog draws near
This will dissolve
As ashes lie in wake
Ashes lie in the dark
The peace and silence
The spiral, it never lost control
Refused my soul in kind
Tear my mind so I may be whole
Be whole
Where’s my sanctity from this hell?
Condemned to life in a cage for crimes unknown
Can I wake my heart of stone
My mind is shattered, fractured, can’t take hold
No signs of sanity
Denied my god-given right to cry
The lies of innocence
Died with my soul so far away
Dea, breathe in new fire
That I may walk alone
Failing inside
The scrolls of sins in stone
Deeds torn, mind frayed
Creeds descend forgotten words of hope
Prosperous lives in oblivion, hearing the storms collide
I remember the memories of when I could feel
The benighted one will die alone
