lyrics

Abominant vessel
At call to the great magus
In vestments of the bonded
Motionless and sane

Abominant vessel
At call to the azimuth
Ascend the sphere of madness
All toward as borne

Before them it is wrought
Before them it is known
Before them it is splendour upon the thrones of old

Before them it is wrought
Before them it is known
Before them it eternally remains

Far wrought before conceptual axiom
Whim of Mercy
Oath to severity
Far wrought before

An echo of delusion and the honing of the peak
A chosen wilful supremacy betokened
A voice unheard in the void millennia
To spheres of unreason

Child of the pale curse offered to the chasm
In redemption of the flesh for light
Infinitum O finite and undying
To falter and wither like the closing of the wound

Whim of Mercy
Oath to severity

The divinity of a forgotten god
Told and elect so risen and benign
Great conscient of the endless sun
To be as the eternal wraith
As wrath of time
The essence of the gaze
Through impurity
Through unbeing
Through the mind …

… outwith the mind
In fear did they dwell
and so throwing off a coil of pain
They became as planar force untold
and as one with flame and dust belied
A singular observance whole in part
And did as to be done for the profane journeyman

Whorl of unbeing

Did ye see all their visions
mapped upon the firmament
before the singular observance whole
and renounced for that greater glory of fire?

Monumental release of flame
To lead to the darkest whorl
Cast aside all earthly gain
Fall before the giants
Affliction or affectation assumed and embraced
Licking at the reaches of intricate design
In confronting celestial spirit
Great star beyond is beheld atop the frame and consumed
As choler undying from a flickering world aloft

Outwith the mind

This curse be as constant immaterial
Engulfed in panoptic continuance
An assailment at behest of the enraptured
Ascendent soul releasing to transcendent grace

A whorl unwhole the body uncelestial
Align the stars released among the void
Great maw consume the being beheld
To see the burning vision everlasting

Outwith the mind
In fear did they dwell
and so throwing off a coil of pain
And so be willed outwith the risen mind in singularity
To be reborn and forgot unto the glory of the fire
