Lyrics
Perception conformed to predefined thought
Partitioned in a box - embracing singularity
Cognition interned to a permeating void
Ambition all destroyed - suffocate potentiality
Extricated from the flesh
Effacing God as death expands
Existence simulated by the Éminence Grise
Inception imposed within a subconscious state
Identities engraved - negating immorality
Transmission governed by forces far removed
Diminished and subdued - standardize interchangeably
So give thyself williningly
A higher purpose meant for thee
Veiled misery, darkness sings
Eternal black, dissolving dreams
Withered fate, pulsing death
Exulted ruin, erased
Volition granted in illusions of control
Perceived indelible - imprisoning vitality
Devotion compelled by the archons of fate
Enfeebled and enslaved - a perversion of reality
Ensnared within the gyres of sorrow and grief
A child of flesh born in bondage to a charnel world
Consumed within the maw of construct and faith
All will erased, fettered vessels to a shepherd of souls
Synapses severed with whispered decrees
A voice of gold spewing poison within every word
Bound to the tongue that infects their beliefs
The wretch of sin trapped in worship to a hollow god
Worshipped illusions of nothingness vast
Programmed to suffer but not meant to last
Ashen eyes
The meek obey
Swallowed tongues
Sing hollow praise
Worshipped illusions of nothingness vast
Programmed to suffer but not meant to last
Salvation forced upon the fragile human race
Indentured to their faith - woven in deceptive fallacy
Damnation cast upon the hearts that don’t believe
Condemned with no reprieve - descend into depravity
So give thyself williningly
A higher purpose meant for thee
Veiled misery, darkness sings
Eternal black, dissolving dreams
Withered fate, pulsing death
Exulted ruin, erased, enslaved
