I. Prologue - A Prayer
01:30

Non audio vocem tuam
Non sentio manum tuam
Non video lumen tuum
Imple me spiritu, exaudi clamorem meum de profundis
Domine, in caelo vel in inferno

For years I have tread among sheep
Among sages repeating their own truth
In a world full of selfish kings
Puppets of their own power
As worms in the mud, the people obey
Donating offspring as pawns of war
And in this filth I have lived
Blinded by rage, among deaf ears
I yearn to know
I yearn...
Pestilence, will lead us astray
War, youth thrown away
Famine, this hunger to see
Death, the price to be free
(Our faith, a dried up hollow shell)
Clergy as maggots in rotten flesh
Declaring that this path is the right one
And the sick people gladly nod their heads
A grain of knowledge, a secret beyond time
That can only be conjured burned on a stake
A final answer I crave, may it take my life
For this world I owe nothing
I yearn to know
I yearn...

Spells beyond time
Secrets and mysticism
Lore from a thousand years
Conquer my thoughts
Perspectives of the cosmos
Reveal their new face
Soul merged with blood
Dive into the red stream of generations
Above the crowns I meet your eyes
Your wisdom I beg to finally share with me
Famine, sickness, plagues
Through fire born into a new age
Guide us off this wheel
Answer this mockery of life
The last moments of every mortal
Questions of what comes next
Fade into nothing
Amount to nothing
Above the crowns I meet your eyes
Your wisdom I beg to finally share with me
Oh, illuminate my deep spirit
Might of your ages bring back into this world
From kings to slaves deliver your rage
From the filth of those worms cleanse us forever
Show your ways, guide us to light
Purificatio finalis, vita aeterna
Is this really it
A brief existence
In a futile world
Without solace
A life of nothing
A death for nothing
No meaning
Only
Void

Beneath the feet of the silent watcher
Disregard for the eyes above
"Open the mouth and touch the face of God"
Words perish and rays of light fall upon a crown of horns
”Silence of gold in a silver shroud of scorn!”
There is no sympathy, as the flock heads for the slaughter
Embrace the pain as divine, suffer salvation
All for a long dead prophet, redemption for compliance
All men must come to fall
But wisdom kneels not for the martyr
Open the gates of the ancients and illumination
"Consummate in spirit, sever the heart and soul"
From the palms of thy hands, Father
Cast down into the dark below
"Unconditional love, eternal bliss of torture"
Words perish and rays of light become a mount of swords
”Clamor roars from a million mouths of sulphur”
There is no empathy, as the meek wait for the rapture
Embrace the pain as divine, suffer salvation
All for a long dead prophet, redemption for compliance
All men must come to fall
But wisdom kneels not for the martyr
Open the gates of the ancients and illumination
"Consummate in spirit, sever the heart and soul"
I want to cut the skin of God
To see the flesh and bones of truth
To drink the blood of knowledge
To breathe infinite wisdom
Anointed in divine light
”Vide intra me,
Vides carnem et ossa veritatis,
Sanguinem scientiae meae bibistis,
Spiras in sapientia infinita.
Oculos tuos ardebo ut videas"
And there was light...
Strange shapes and symbols of both men and angels in dissolution
A conjunction of the past, the present and the future
In an eternal oscillation of divine breath
And coagulation of time and existence in a spiral of calcination
Bleeding life into nothingness
I saw kingdoms rise
I saw kingdoms fall
I saw times of ice
I saw times of searing droughts
I saw how the morals of man writhed like a serpents tail upon burning coals
...And the sun licked the surface of the earth
(A grinning mouth of uncreation)
The flames of a giant of fire
A shroud of demise
A tomb in the cloud
(Open the mouth)
For the father
For the spirit
For the son

I am adrift in the ebb and flow
of tides most dark
An endless sea without fixed stars
The soul separated with grief
When the lion swallowed the sun
The sun, I am become
Drowning in the mercury of the philosophers
I am adrift in the ebb and flow
of tides most dark
An endless sea without fixed stars
The soul separated with grief
When the lion devoured the sun
The sun, I am become
Drowning in the mercury of the philosophers
