Coven 03:43
Myself, yourself. Myself to yourself One mind, one entity We are all connected Now I gained the key to the lock, hiding the unknown I am flying, intoxicating bliss Oh mother, invigorating kiss I am undefeatable Invincible! Invincible! In the end My body, rejecting myself Feels like it was never in perception Wave after wave, crashing in Tormented spirits become one I am flying, intoxicating bliss Oh mother, invigorating kiss I am undefeatable. Invincible! Invincible! Now I never felt more alone Faster, faster and faster! My sight starts spinning, as knowledge rushes in In the end There she is, oh mother As words cannot describe the beauty I perceive As I fall into her open arms, I can feel the very last time And in the end... In the end, we are left defeated Our self is no more Invigorating kiss, intoxicating bliss I am flying, intoxicating bliss Oh mother, invigorating kiss I am undefeatable Invincible! Invincible! Now I never felt more alone Faster, faster and faster! My mind erupts, as knowledge rushes in In the end, we are left defeated Our self is no more Invigorating kiss, intoxicating bliss

Dull Knife 03:49
Meaningless sighs, always mistaken for promises You thought you were always meant to rise, but you are just talkative Faceless hangmen, a futile ambition No one to cherish your pristine position You grasp the whole world with your fingers Like a grain of sand Everyone should understand that Salvation flows from your hands You grasp the whole world with your fingers Like a grain of sand I will never understand They follow your commands She is a concubine to cleanse your soul (Meaningless sighs, meaningless sighs) But vanity won’t grant you more (Meaningless sighs, meaningless sighs) You grasp the whole world with your fingers Like a grain of sand Everyone should understand that Salvation flows from your hands You grasp the whole world with your fingers Like a grain of sand I will never understand They follow your commands Not one single sane thought Triggers your tainted heart The stench of vacuous recitals revolves around you Faceless hangmen, a futile ambition No one to cherish your pristine position You grasp the whole world with your fingers Like a grain of sand Everyone should understand that Salvation flows from your hands You grasp the whole world with your fingers Like a grain of sand I will never understand They follow your commands Not one single sane thought Triggers your tainted heart

You make amends for being altruistic I’m sorry you have to endure something like this You made it clear Everything ends in tears Singing “we are the light within ourselves” (I will say it again) You are no slave to substance (I will say it again) You are a spark of resistance (I will say it again) No slave to substance (I will say it again) Ember paves the way to higher expectations You are the everlasting echo of revelations May they find comfort in crashing down There is no other way to feel it Warpaint made of abandoned scars All roads lead us here A broken promise and a raised fist Let’s make them disappear All senses fail from here Don’t cloak your firm beliefs in secrecy The status quo cannot stay the same You make amends for being altruistic I’m sorry you have to endure something like this You made it clear Everything ends in tears Singing “we are the radiant sun” (I will say it again) All roads lead us here A broken promise and a raised fist Let’s make them disappear All senses fail from here Don’t cloak your firm beliefs in secrecy The status quo cannot stay the same Warpaint made of abandoned scars Warpaint made of abandoned scars

Morality, the false hope of comfort The sword binds wielder to victim Morality, the false hope of comfort The sword binds life to death Take or be taken Challenge one another To bring on the true fate Feel the blade Now cut through skin and bone Liberate the unworthy This is the true hope Worship Consume their defeat Paracausality A calling from the deep Apotheosis Starving, taking with all forces Devour the light from the sky Ingest the pain into the deep To claim true liberation Self-preservation A higher plane of misery Of Misery Worship, paracausality, apotheosis Now the throne is left without a king Bring forth the true belief Hear the call to the farthest realms To maintain the sword logic Morality, the false hope of comfort The sword binds life to death
 Reclaim the throne Tie up salvation Wielder to victim There is no option Morality, the false hope of comfort The sword binds life to death
 Worship Consume their defeat Paracausality A calling from the deep Apotheosis Starving, taking with all forces Reclaim the throne Tie up salvation Wielder to victim There is no option

Premonitions 04:00
The sovereign reveals his serpent tongue Perceive the sound, receive contempt Mandatory reactions Evoke misconceptions Our Alpha, our Omega, the uncertainty, our downfall The serenades we all keep singing sound like grinding teeth You know there’s something more Deep inside us burns a fire A chant consumed by fear, destined to end in silence On our way there‘s something more Deep inside us burns a fire With sewn eyes we try to see one another With severed hands we try to reach one another Our Alpha, our Omega, the uncertainty, our downfall Our Alpha, our Omega, the uncertainty, our downfall We were so wrong Stigma of shame We were so wrong Now we keep fighting through the pain We were so wrong Stigma of shame We were so wrong Now we keep fighting through the pain Solitude waits for us like a stone Patient, ravenous Until our shells will die alone We were so wrong Stigma of shame Solitude waits for us like a stone Patient, ravenous Until our shells will die alone
