Knights of the Road
06:08
|

winding down through hell
vegetal ruin
consumes and surrounds
a weary rusted king
leading them on to oblivion
knights of the road
weighed down by suits of gold
they travel slow
a caravan into the unknown
floating on the river of the damned
an arrow in the throat
of another fallen comrade
a weary rusted king
succumbs to his madness
to find
a kingdom filled with ghosts and fools
one by one they falter
knights of the road
weighed down by suits of gold
they travel slow
a caravan into the unknown

Sea Witch
07:15
|

on an island
with trees of verdant green
there is a violet queen
and in the golden hour she comes to be
wreathed in fire
crowned with mistletoe
when the moon is full
she will writhe into the sea
a mess of tentacles
a terrifying deity
so lay a garland
a shroud of dismal yew
upon her altar
and in the golden hour she comes to be
wreathed in fire
crowned with mistletoe
when the moon is full
she will writhe into the sea
a mess of tentacles
a terrifying deity
hopeless
marooned
she waits for the stars to align
the creature inside
biding its time
something stirs
with the rising tide
the serpent sheds its skin again
bones break
organs distend
the serpent sheds its skin again
when the moon is full
she will writhe into the sea
a mess of tentacles
a terrifying deity

Saturn Beast of Saturn
09:43
|

sprawling through
the darkness
strangling stars
mining ore from heaven
to feed its alchemic storm
stygian rings
the serpent circling
burrowing down
through salt and smoke
to eat the iron
found below
saturn beast of saturn
spewing cosmic brine
to swallow another sun
saturn beast of saturn
a promethean mind
disturbs
an age of slumber
its tendrils unfurl
reaching out across the void
there can be only one
a fevered desire for solitude
and a compulsion to destroy
the light
calling out across the void
there can be only one
its spores rain down
and fall to earth
like a sprinkling of unwholesome dew
burrowing down like a tick
into the life it must consume
saturn beast of saturn

The Doorway
07:49
|

out in the woods
casting the bones
out in the wilderness
erecting great pillars of stone
to the antlered one
the time is coming
a whisper of words
and one thousand years of ritual will end
the falcon cannot hear the falconer
and as the nexus closes
around our screaming friends
a creature is born into the world
an offering
a trade of skin
out in the woods
he takes a form
and in the wilderness
a demon reborn from the ash of the fallen ones
the time is coming
a whisper of words
and one thousand years of ritual will end
the falcon cannot hear the falconer
and as the nexus closes
around our screaming friends
a creature is born into the world
and on a moonless night
the forest starts to burn
the heat of orgone fire
leaves a door carved in the stone
we beckon through the flame
and a sacrifice is made
flesh for flesh
and blood for blood
the doorway closing
the damage is done
and as the world falls toruin
his followers will feast amongst the rubble

Spaceberg
05:53
|
|||
a wasted world
a planet laid to ruin
blasted with glass and sand
a fitting end
the wanderer
rests at the foot of a foreboding tomb
laden with tank and tube
a glacier rising from the earth
its frozen spires
glisten black in the sun
into the belly of the beast
descending a cavernous divide
the wanderer
is breaking through the ice
the deepest darkest pool
a helmet glints beneath the water
the wanderer beholds his own design
into the belly of the beast
tethered to a craft not far behind
a cosmonaut breeching the divide
circling a collapsing star
cresting a gaseous storm
a refuge for the dismal and the damned
