Do you ever wish
To be a solo fish
Not following the school
Leading itself to the ditch
Conforming with falsehood’s joy
Taken advantage of like a used toy
Unable to ever think for yourself
Mentally impoverished even when surrounded by wealth
Like me?
I see you paint your world
Like all the other girls
How much will it cost
For your Pyrrhic victory to unfurl
And the man who would overcome
The plateaus of mankind the dumb
Lives in a pipe dream under the sea
Yearning for a heaven that never will be
In isolation I want to be
Free from your reality
I hope to soon forget
The moment we first met
Momentary lapse in judgment
Birthed an eternity of regret
I hope to soon forget
The thought that we ever met
Which lives on in my head
With eternal regret
I could never fit in
In the game (of life) I can never win
But I won’t fake a smile for the cameras
Watching my explicit chagrin
On the blank white mountain
Longing for death
I escape
Treading in dread
Once again
Reading between the lies
Finding absolutely no surprise
No trompe-lœil to fool my eyes
On the path of nature I progress through tonight
However moon dancers above
Absolve me of my wanderlust
Under trees dancing in the breeze
Liberated from your superficial humanity
Irony, agony, I walk alone and I’ll be free
Into the solitude of the woods, the trees
Don’t come for me, leave me be
Loneliness is my reality
To die without a grave.

A Cabin
06:47
|

|
Journey into the mountains,
Hoping to find and keep solace
In the gradient of radiant dawn
My eyes washed clean, sorrow’s gone
Endless viridian landscapes
A gaze into the moon unbridled
To become betrothed with the darkness
Which brings peace unto my mind
A cabin in the mountainous forests
Contrast of colors in the Wyoming sky
Where I sojourn, breathing the wild air;
Without a dark worry in the inhuman wind of wolves and bears
Here I came to find solace...
...But, I have also found myself.

Mountainous spires
Adorned in firs
The sun has shined
But it’s now come its time
A gradient of blue and red
Of water and blood in the sky
Betwixt with consoling clouds
That have come to slay the light
Attrition proves the most fruitful
To conquer and dethrone the light
A waiting game, Patience the key
The clouds come like warhorses
And all turns to black.

[Instrumental]
“Behold, þe worshippers
For it shall soon grow colder than ice
When the sun descends
Into celestial, stellar death.”

Gone are the pagan dreams
But their sacrifice lives on, in memory
First to stand, the last to fall,
I’m like the echoes of the lone wolf’s howling call
Or as a puissant tree, perhaps of great oak;
I still hear the songs of which my brethren spoke…echo…
“Further beyond the stone’s throw and a throne of worries and throes
We are sipping the wine of the starlight’s curse;
And I, as I am basking in nightfall, satiate my ebony thirst”
First to raise the sword, the last to unsheathe the white flag of surrender
The sole soul to see the dusk descend
And (live to) witness the rising dawns again
Beholding the red that’s turned to black
Down the road of rock towards the mountaintops
I still stand, even if by my lonesome self
My tenaciousness forged by the great gorge
Still standing, I am the last man
The last man standing on the mountain
The fire may have died, but my spirit will forever survive.

Atomic Infested Carnage
by Blasphemophagher
Great, old school black/death bestial war metal. This is vitriolic and contemptuous, perfect song list for diabolic armageddon \m/.
