Salem Child 05:22
salem child, you watched your sisters burn on the sixth day of the sixth month at the sixth hour crackling embers wept at their feet the heaviest burden is one no one else can see black smoke carving shapes above the trees spilling human dust on everything torched alive at the break of dawn watchers sang their praises to a vengeful wretched god daughters of the dark are gathering glass moon ritual beneath the endless night to resurrect the fallen one correct what has been done bringing hell down on this place salem child, you bear the mark of baphomet on the palms of your hands and you will have your revenge when the dead of night creeps onto these grounds black smoke carving shapes above the trees spilling human dust on everything torched alive at the break of dawn watchers sang their praises to a vengeful wretched god daughters of the dark are gathering glass moon ritual beneath the endless night to resurrect the fallen one correct what has been done bringing hell down on this place

promise of abundance showered with gold a soul bargained for riches prosperous essence without misfortune and without fear walking together as one spreading lies wearing the flesh mask a malevolent pawn vessel of the wicked walking up and down the earth speak not the name corruption incarnate consigned to life burning in the embers brainwashing the masses constructing a patronage to feed the ancient serpent bind tight the chains of judgement false prophet from the lake of fire speak not the name corruption incarnate consigned to life burning in the embers breathing in sulphur dioxide spitting back lustful deception everything the sun touches will burn and it will burn endlessly he lives through the body of another resurrect the end of all time everything the sun touches will burn and it will burn endlessly

close your eyes visualize cascading waves pouring from every orifice spilling onto the soil we are the desperate few who live and die by the blade collect every droplet of blood and drink to better days nothing is left of any of us swept like dust under a rug we are the desperate few who live and die by the blade collect every droplet of blood and drink to better days forever isn't infinite anymore what became of unconditional love forever isn't infinite anymore what became of unconditional love we are the desperate few who live and die by the blade collect every droplet of blood and drink to better days

Ghosts 04:23
buried in the basement cemetery of your home i watched the ruin one after the other i watched you ruin everything i desire an awkward angle bent over backwards head to heel there is a passion in the artwork there is no air in this empty room ghosts of the past died with dreams of living sickened by lies taking refuge in destruction of this failing architecture this is an abandoned sunken ship this is the end of civilization sunken eyes of a lifeless face never seen or heard from again there is no air in this empty room ghosts of the past died with dreams of living sickened by lies taking refuge in destruction of this failing architecture

Death Oracle 04:55
forcing deception from a lying mouth a menial obstacle in the passage of time ceaseless cleansing, culling the filth if you ever leave this place it will be adorned in polyethylene gifted with gills as if you could breathe underwater i'm sifting through what still remains searching for a heart that never lived cold blooms from an empty chest reaping the frigid night air shrouded in blankets of darkness performing the ancient craft as grains of sand drain from the hourglass the wick has expired rows of stone will line the road live and die by the blade he will continue the haunt until no one is left

two sacred forms collision of cells what could have been if we were not foreign to one another? we both knew it wasn't right now i'm ten feet away from the room where they keep you walking these halls useless in design i feel your pain regardless of the drugs that flow through your veins and swim in your blood it was part of me now i don't fear the life what i fear is cultivation return honesty contemplate the reality of a sacrifice in time take me back to the light sick with fury up all night two months to the day it's getting cold outside november is calling both of our names i feel your pain regardless of the drugs that flow through your veins and swim in your blood it was part of me now i don't fear the life what i fear is cultivation return honesty contemplate the reality of a sacrifice in time it was part of me now i don't fear the life what i fear is cultivation return honesty contemplate the reality of a sacrifice in time take me back to the light

silence the noise in my head do what you say and mean it actions speak louder than words sick and depleted swallow the sugar pill have you ever seen a miracle when it happens you will know when you feel the recoil snapping your neck when tomorrow ends it will be the last anyone will ever see rejected by life, spinning off axis no more lifeless than the void left in the night sky reach for the emptiness incapable recognition of the aspect have you ever seen a miracle when it happens you will know when you feel the recoil snapping your neck when tomorrow ends it will be the last anyone will ever see rejected by life, spinning off axis no more lifeless than the void left in the night sky we are all sinners no one is sacred overwhelming greed will bring the whole world down when tomorrow ends it will be the last anyone will ever see rejected by life, spinning off axis no more lifeless than the void left in the night sky

Shimmer 05:07
bright glistening eyes i'm always watching gaze back and smiling long hair swaying the sweetings morning a hungry recollection shimmering from the inside out bathing blind in the light pluck the sun and the moon from the sky wilting from the inside out we could never seem to make amends deep coral perforation elegant porcelain hold tightly, never falter if i promise to stay will nothing ever change shimmering from the inside out bathing blind in the light pluck the sun and the moon from the sky wilting from the inside out we could never seem to make amends with ourselves time inks years into fledgling skin wondering if tomorrow will be history if what was once everything becomes nothing if a ring holds true in the eyes of the worn shimmering from the inside out bathing blind in the light pluck the sun and the moon from the sky wilting from the inside out we could never seem to make amends with ourselves shimmering from the inside out bathing blind in the light pluck the sun and the moon from the sky wilting from the inside out we could never seem to make amends with ourselves

Stargazing 04:46
horizontal in the sand as if you were sleeping when the stars came out i watched them hit your eyes reflecting pinholes of light someone i once knew a lifetime ago on the shoreline drifting in and drifting out of consciousness with the never ending ocean moon fed and dreaming lost in a daze from when you were young thousands of years have passed since this phosphorescence reached us trying to hold time in our hands watch it slip between our fingers burning giants spilling light illuminating the onyx oblivion
