Benediction - Divine Ultimatum

Contained in blood scrawl, compiled evil artifacts
Insane instigators of ritualistic pacts (Master!)
Necronomicon, bestial methods, age old torrid acts
If darker side thus beckon, in limbo boundaries must be smashed!

Delving demonic entrance
Connecting incantations
(You're the) Doorway for unbeings past

Induce, recite, summon reprise
Bid welcome to Candarian 'guise

Possession escalates
Your confused eyes revert
Senses nulled, inert

Induce, recite, summon reprise
Bid welcome to Candarian 'guise

Your soul now quashed, with blinded eyes
You grasp impaired enlightenment

Demonicus mortal

Through all-seeing eyes
Scrutinize the world
Syndicate of one
Angered by mankind's affairs

In his divine wisdom
He laid down the guidelines
Laws governing existence
Which mankind dismissed without care

The deadline's expired
Crush them with their own evils!

Armed to the teeth, power crazed countries
Leveled by storms of atomic overkill
Mother nature chastising the corrupt and the selfish
Unleash the elements in all their fury

Battered humanity
Extends its hand in hope of repentance

The divine one recoils in defiance
Due warning was given
Divine ultimatum
Nothingness prevails

Another sunrise
Swathes the earth in light
The sun a symbol of innocence
Inverse of the night

Yet with all this energy
Comes a certain weakness
'O hear its silent cries
As the blackness envelops

Amass, congregate
Form an ashen shroud, asphyxiate
Secure restraining reins
Mummify the sun
Drag it down to earth
With its age old flame extinguished

The event of its demise
An invitation to its rival
Lord of insanity
Replacing joy with madness

Now all life on earth
Turns its head towards its master
Rationality
Replaced with numbed mesmerisation

Through centuries of blackness
Ten thousand claustrophobic years
Eyes seeing no light succumb to blindness
And cry longing tears
Land that once thrived
Reduced to greying desert
Smothered by eternal eclipse
An eternity of non-existence

Clawed fingers forcing iron bars
Visions of tortured misery
Semi-human tears of frustrated rage
Hunched up in this fuckin' cage

My emotions are artificially induced
Though no further need to feel
Now I've fabricated steel limbs
Electro-pulses throb within

Man made monster
Morbid science
Deaf to my feeble protests
I've served my purpose

In my veins life fluid used to flow
Now drained and replaced
With sedative substances
To restrain instinctive rage

Man made monster
Morbid science
Deaf to my feeble protests
I've served my purpose

Offended by unscathed exterior
Unblemished form provokes hysteria

Self disgust will overpower
Overriding pain acceptance
Preservation of your cursed hide
Submit to mutilation

Revel in your attempts
To create the ultimate pain
Death would undermine
Your frenzied theatrics
No wish for final curtain
On grizzled finale

Pallor of your healthy flesh
Gives the undesired effect
You'd rather have it raw and crusted
Reach for the sulphuric acid

Writhe in burning agony!

Powerless to reject
Scarred contentedness
To ensure pleasure lingers
Amputate your fingers

Revel in your attempts
To create the ultimate pain
Death would undermine
Your frenzied theatrics
No wish for final curtain
On grizzled finale

As awareness plummets
Into cloudy nothingness
Enact the final scene
Gargling nitro-glycerin

Yes! - reach out to the mirror.
Observe the unison of flesh and glass sucking you in.
Embraced by the dream spiral, you float on an air of foul intent.

Battle with beast forms of your anxieties, your inhibitions.
Confront the fearscape, venture into subconscious terror...

Released from nether regions, bowels of the earth
Seeping through cracks to foul the air above
A lifeline to those to which sleep is eternal
Concocted since the dawn of time to now release agonized souls

Spit forth the dead

Spit forth the dead (Hah-hah-hah!)

Carried on the air, purity aiding filth
Seeking consecrated ground

Sensing cemeteries in a blanket of dust
Fertilizing the infertile from six feet under

Intoxicating with false life
Coaxing from the brink of decay
Animating the inanimate
From wooden box to light of day

Exodus from the ground
Stale forms tasting air
Each united in their cause
Yet of its groundmates unaware

Now the dead govern the earth
All resistance to them crushed
Life is now minority
The world another hell

Wipeout! AAAA!!!

Slow!

Swirling void, unfathomable dark
Inner cranial conflict
Wading in detached reality
Infinite illusion

Dark abstract, vice-like grip
Subconscious terror

Never underestimate
The unseen brain producing fear and hate
Overpowering images
The macabre side of you

Physical untruths
Fuel for its cruel tricks
What in reality is questioned
Is reversed into the norm

Immediate escape! The vital need
But you've been animated at half speed

Still you run but trip
Down into the bottomless abyss
Consciousness will slowly dwindle
As your nightmares assume control

Float in mental purgatory
Subconscious terror

YEAH!
