stylez There isn't really a song on the album that isn't my favorite. Perpetual War happens to be the one that ends the album, making me sad that the album ended, so it makes me have to listen again. Favorite track: Perpetual War.

The dismal bells of doom clash in the distance Dragging me back into agonizing conscience Embrace of night Left me for good Dazed and confused Vision is blurred Focus Clear the mind Shake off the weight I have to walk Unto the fields of strife Every sense is set on fire Unto the fields of strife My blood begins to boil Stumble across Burnt memories Drawn to the void All progress is lost Cold hands Cold heart Shake off the weight I have to walk Unto the fields of strife Every sense is set on fire Unto the fields of strife My blood begins to boil Unto the fields of strife A slow slide into darkness

Sharpen your senses Split tongues lure you in They talk so sweet And yet they are pure malevolence Prone to distraction So easy to divert Craving entertainment The brain wants a feast Time diluted A blurry mess Points of reference Lost in the mist Smoke and mirrors Self-inflicted misconception Staring down the rabbit hole No answers to be found! The prize they claim Your very essence Cast away Empty shell Guzzling aberration Sweet venom Drowning the senses Searching for a beacon My eyelids are heavy as lead Strained by trying to pierce this fog Smoke and mirrors Self-inflicted misconception Staring down the rabbit hole No answers to be found! No answers to be found! To be found! A strong wind clears the horizon A piercing scream shatters the mirrors There may be hope!

Can you see me roam across the barren lands An endless journey since the dawn of time Cleansing the earth from human parasites Mesmerized by morbid serenades Deepest desperation You take anything God-shaped hole in your head Waging war and taking lives All in the name of dogmatic misconception I am Death Death incarnate Called into being Summoned by the songs of the fallen Wailing chants howl through the aeons Just a murmur to the ears of the living Pouring in as dissonant melodies From the endless swarm of the dead I am Death Death incarnate Called into being Summoned by the songs of the fallen

Heresy 03:52
Gazing out over this ocean Solemn but eager reaching for a million stars The fate of a galaxy in his hands What once was true now is nought Unleashing his full might Eradicating the opposition Illumination! Heresy! His mind has been warped Twisted, turned, wrought and burned. Chaos, chaos, chaos! From beyond the veil Twisted, turned, wrought and burned. Chaos! Crooked smile fades away Nothing left of his former self Illumination! Heresy! Betrayer! Twisted, turned, wrought and burned. Chaos, chaos, chaos! Weaver of lies! Twisted, turned, wrought and burned. Chaos! Gazing out over this ocean Solemn but eager Reaching for a million stars The fate of a galaxy in his hands What once was true now is nought Heresy!

You say that you encompass my doom You try to infect my heart with fear A slow knife piercing the shield A potent poison coating the tip What wicked webs that you weave Crooked serpentine constructs Trapping thoughts and minds alike Blinded by vacuous promises A distinct lack of clarity Listen to your better nature We are here to dispel the clouds To tear down the veil Within the realm of common sense All your petty tricks are meaningless You exert to hide that place Cover it with lies, deceit and despair The only way you find comfort Is a constant state of war War against the rest of the world A strategy doomed to fail Your paths are fixed in stone Obscure and archaic Remnants of a past long gone Covered by the sands of time Transcend your lack of clarity And listen to your better nature For we are here to dispel the clouds And to tear down the veil
