I stood in the waters
And lost sight of the shore
Drowned by these churning currents

Tried to breathe, down too deep

As the morning shattered
The stars with the sun
Eclipsed by blinding radiance

Cannot see, the will to be

Faith gave to Reason
A call to the grave
Released, from this
burden to exist

Set me free, Eternity

From the forests
Came the rain
Clouds of rolling black
unfurled, decayed

Twisting rivers
Chasing the dawn
Branched and broken,
the final curtain drawn

Silent from stillness
No motion remains
Forlorn, forgotten and lost
all hope betrayed

Waking up to new realities
The path was lost but now it walks with me

Sacred moments upon pale shores
Scattered starlight unfurls hidden doors

Once traversed, the way is now revealed
Attainment of the final long-lost seals

This kindled flame of light divine
Ignite my soul, my memory and mind

From the ashes, we shall rise
Phoenix of the black sun divine

At the center of the spiritual paths
Lies a monolithic stone
Inscribed in secret,
knowledge hidden from man
A blue flame ever grows

Forward, headstrong,
with solemn constitution
Streams of consciousness
ignite the flames within
Endless waves adrift, flowing ever on,
toward the end

At the Throne of Thaumiel,
the nexus of all dreams
The warden of true insight,
the one who holds the keys
Herald of eternal light,
your wisdom set us free

Hail Aeon

Feigning comfort, at this endless agony
Revolting pulpits, and hooks within them,
can't be torn out

Nightmare theater, where the
puppets pull the strings
All hail Nero, watching it burn down,
torching it all now

Blackened mirror, show me what you see
The soul survivor, cloaked in clandestine heresy

Apostate angel, grant your grace to me
Let destiny dissolve,
tear your way through to the carrion thralls

Here I stand, at the edge of time
Light reveals the way now, unraveling its lies
Death won't be forever, creation will begin
The only way to get beyond this,
is to go within

To our benevolent Darkness
We hear your merciful words
For our struggles and sacrifices
Our spirits endured

To our reverent Darkness
From the ashes of war
For our struggles and sacrifices
Now reign forevermore

In this moment of reflection
Through shadow I now see
The answers which were waiting
Just beyond my reach

In this moment of reflection
Through shadow I now see
The answers which were waiting
Now enlighten me

Awaken the shadows of time
Faded like memory
Lost to this one
Moment of pain
Moment of unending atrophy

Coalesce the universe
Transcending divine law
Strike the void now to ascend
And realign the stars

The cruelty of fate
Whose hand denied me of my heart
Strike the void now to ascend
And tear this world apart

Cycle through from life to life Forget identity
Strike the void now to ascend
Reclaim our destiny

Falling through the barriers
Beyond realities
Enveloped by the will to pass
Through mortality

Wandering the cosmic kingdoms
Witness to their thrones
Instill in me eternally
All wisdom to be known

Sacrifice and shed the self
The vestige of the old
Embrace the dawn's eternal light
In marvel and behold

Aeternum Dominum

Sanctity like burning ash
Reconstruct a forlorn past
