Seraphim
05:54
|
|||
From the ocean I saw a black mass rise
Casting no shadow, catching no light
I cower in the wake of its unutterably faceless gaze
Is this what I‘ve been praying for?
Waking, seeping
Into my teeth
Out from my eyes
Terror takes me
It extends it hands
And touches my lips
The terror leaves me
I hear its voice
“Be not afraid
Your prayers are heard
Cover your eyes
Cover your feet
Your guilt has departed”

Dominion
04:46
|
|||
I want more
So forget what I said before
Which one of us is the master of my body?
I’ve become the void herself
|

3. |
||||
I bear no resemblance to you
I am only a graven image
I am the remnant of a departed creature
The vestigial wings of a flightless bird
My body contorts to mimic you
Yet I see nothing with one thousand eyes
My body contorts to mimic you
Yet I feel nothing with one thousand hands
I cover the embers
So while I look away
They don’t ignite
But the trees that walk around
Step in the coals
And the smoke conceals them
My body contorts to mimic you
Yet I see nothing with one thousand eyes
My body contorts to mimic you
Yet I feel nothing with one thousand hands

Obelisk
02:42
|
|||
An obelisk stands incomplete
Built for the void
But impotent
A monument to uncounted cost
Hate your father
Hate your children
Hate yourself
Give them all to the void

Sisters
05:00
|
|||
At rest but not at peace
I can see the flesh of my back
Teeth sinking into the sky
There’s nothing better than this
We are your sisters
Walking with broken legs
You’re our little void
And your last word will be a silence
Take me by the throat
Tie your tongue to mine
Spite your silence and speak through me
My voice is yours
And yours is the only truth
To know without thinking
You are the yearning in my abstinence
That benign terror arousing my envy
That flame singeing the edges of my awareness

Nephilim
03:48
|
|||
We watched the stars spill
Leaking onto the earth
Subject to every kind of death
Of those that died
A few had sung
The rest had listened
To the nameless sound
of that benign terror
|
||||

Apophasis
04:41
|
|||
This noise stacks
like stones on my chest
I call out for help
but break the silence
I’m able to walk
with broken legs
Tie your tongue to mine
and your feet to the ground
Waking, seeping
Into my teeth
Out from my eyes
Terror takes me
When you arrive will I know you?
Will you make your voice heard?
Will your piercing fingers touch my lips?
Will your truth flow through my teeth?
Waking, seeping
Into my teeth
Out from my eyes
Terror takes me

Ophanim
10:38
|
|||
My blood turns to water
And spills into the ocean
My desiccated carcass
Lays beneath the stars
Swimming within me
One thousand creatures
Guarding the throne
Tending the garden
I hear their voices
“Be not afraid
Your prayers are heard
Cover your eyes
Cover your feet
Your guilt has departed”
