Beyond any matter
Unknown from men
Cosmivorous words
Of antediluvian worlds
Those of the distant
From dismal consciousness
Primal Aeon
Of primordial chaos
By dauntless cognizance
The portal is open
Obtain your harvest
Your cosmic absolute
Through dreadful oneiric occurrences
We learned what shall come
Dimensional eschatology
Is your doom

Sacrifice Unto Babalon
04:56
|
|||
O’ Mother of all that is
On your altar
This night of great wisdom
I present you thy chalice of blood
Filled of mortal souls
Sacrifice unto Babalon
Illuminate our paths
O’ primordial great Female
Reprove the ignorant
Lead us to perpetual knowledge
Under your love and protection
We are your children
Sacrifice unto Babalon
Illuminate our paths
Sacrifice unto Babalon
You are the Sun and the Moon
Liberate us
Elevate us
From Yesod, to the Ascension

From days of yore
Chants through the past
Struggling against universalism
Destroying our ancestral beliefs
Crush their prophets
Spread the words of atavism
Hail the sun
Invocation of Archaïc Deities
Summon
Worship
Baptism of blood
Ritual use of fire

Monoliths
06:18
|
|||
Towers rising from the soil
reaching the sky
Until the Sun is hidden
by their immensity
Remains
Of a ultra-rational cult
preaching perfection,
submission to usefulness
which satisfied the greed
of those who conspired
at the top of the Monoliths
Once an evidence of power
Now they stand still, powerless
With no more artificial lights
to show their strenght
Once an evidence of majesty
Now they stand in darkness
which they created

Ashen Ascetic
07:13
|
|||
One with Life
One with Death
Through Purity
And Debauchery
Shall I reach eternity
Nothing is Impure
All is Saint
Through ashes and bones
I lay
On the cremation ground
Transcending all that is
Through cosmic hallucinations
Exhaling an opaque fog
To see what is unseen
From mere mortals
Through asceticism
I reach ataraxy
And embody austerity
Desire alienates
For a higher self
I embrace decay
Swallowing spirits
To begin the psychoactive ritual

Amid the Ruins
06:58
|
|||
Under a no longer radiant sun
And an opaque aether
I wander without goal
Amid the ruins
Embraced by cold and solitude
Through an ever flowing rain
I'm escaping the ruins of our kind
My own are no longer
I am alone with my grief
Neither dead neither alive
Until the light takes me

A Subterranean Life
11:30
|
|||
An eternal winter is awaiting us
Freezing us to the bones
Putrid air asphyxiate all beings
We need to burrow
Lands are desolated
Our old civilizations are now fallen
All that we have created is ruined
Natural disasters keep coming
Deeper and deeper, further down
We must create new realms
We're pressed for time
Above, there's only death
Inoculating our own plague
Existence to the very depths
Will maybe just repulse our curse
May the Earth save us
Hope of ever seeing the surface
Is now gone forever
Cold and stench were all annihilated
Living is not and will not be
We were promised to a great future
Supposedly masters of Nature
We can only lament her mercy
What have we done ?
A subterranean life
That's our burden
May that humans find pardon
Into the ground
