Orbit Culture - Rasen (2016)

A newborn has reached our realm.
And an old life is thrown away.
In the light of a dark sun
we welcome our new friend.

In time she will throw it
all just to comprehend.
The last thing they say getting older.
The last time, it's over.

You'll face your darkest of days.
In life you'll feed from them.
You'll be facing the choice right from wrong.
Inside this hard, cold place.
You'll find your light.

Your light.

Defiling hands will inflect
Your mind and soul.
Retrospect.
Dissecte your surroundings now.

Defilers hearts are weak
And unreliable.
When curtains fall
you'll show them your fire.

In the dawn of light
you'll see it all before it fades.
In the halls of our gods
you'll see it all before it fades.

You'll face the tranquil in hate.
In life you'll taste from it.
You'll be thrown in the well of the dark.
Inside this hard cold place.
You won't get out alive.

Defiling hands will praise
Your pride in hate.
Retrospect again.
Your surroundings now.

Remember hearts of the weak.
They can't come forth without your help
nor can't their souls.

In the dawn of light
you'll see it all before it fades.
In the halls of our gods
you'll see it all before it fades.

When the goblet of life is full.
There's a million of new ones forged.

The tree of life endure.
In the dawn of light we lure.
Extend your back of thorns.
Guard your yourself in your shell.
Deflect defiling hands.
And protect your heart of stone.
Insects crawling closer.
Protect your heart from carnage.

Pain and peril, mutation of me.
Alone I've dwelled in the dark surrounding me.
Chained in hell by the new one in me.
It found a way from hell defiling my dreams.

Afraid to lose control of it all.
Afraid to go insane in the dark.
Afraid to lose myself in it all.
Afraid to let my ghosts call the shots.

Pain and peril, delusions set free.
I've paid the price in the night of a misty dream.
Change and peril, the darkness calls me.
They came through me, from hell beneath the trees.

Afraid to lose control of it all.
Afraid to go insane in the dark.
Afraid to lose myself in it all.
Afraid to let my ghosts bring my fall.

Rain of fire protects me.
From death, the sinister haven.
I, the wolf, on top of mountains howl.
Strong and tall above the other hordes.

With strength I fought the demons away.
Attached on skin but through fur they can't come in.

In pain I fought the demons away.
Attached on skin but through fur they can't come in.

I found it harder to come back.
I found the surface more dark
than its been before and I've
been fighting for a long time.

Why am I afraid to be alive?
What have I done to feel confined?
What did I do to feel this way?
The only thing I feel is the pain.

The pain.

I've seen my holocaust.

Rain of fire protects me.
From death, the sinister haven.
I, the wolf, on top of mountains howl.
Strong and tall above the other hordes.

Scarred by the faceless demons I've been
Scarred by my flesh-eating thoughts I've been
Scarred to the point where the pain, it won't stop.
It won't stop until I'm gone.

You take what you get, what you really don't need.
Next to a poor child whose feet won't stop bleed.
My faith in humanity fades day by day alongside his fate.
This poor childs dreams, now in oceans halls.
You let it slide and yet you try behind your screens.

Your screens.

You've failed. You devour our kin.
You've given them false hope now.
Be someone to no-one, the importance of living now.

In a far-away land, in my head and my dreams.
I've seen this horizon and it's validly changed.
Our faith in humanity fades and who the hell to blame?
Now sorrow speaks loud from oceans halls.
Your let it slide and yet you try behind it all.

Behind it all.

You've failed. You devour our kin.
You've given them false hope now.
Be someone to no-one, it's always the same.

In the storms, in the waves.
The clouds are in haste. Betrayal.
At the gates of our world.
The child do suffer. Denial.

We've been living too long to ignore.
We've been striving too long in denial.
We've been living our lives in our homes.
We've been crossing the oceans and never looked down before.

The source of our problems lies deep inside their heads.
High powers affect the change but not to be welcomed.
Their faith ignores the straight path of all science.
The bullets fly through the air without getting noticed.

They rape.
They kill.
To prove not to be cowards.

They'll burn.
They'll slith
Your throath in search of power.

Betrayal.
Denial.

Pain you feel, the only sense that's real.
The anxiety turning worlds surreal.
You've faced the dark, you bear the demons mark.
At the edge of insanity, we almost do fall.

When you're finally back here
There's nothing to fear.
Remember your heart and soul.

When the violence feels real,
it's only in your head.
Remember, the dark will fade.
With the rain falling down,
you'll always find shelter.
No matter how hard it falls.

When the lights goes out,
you should know that we trust you.
You'll find your way.

I can't feel any pain.
I can't feel any pain.
Pictures flashing around me.
The wires dig deeper inside of me.

I can't feel any pain.
No I can't feel any pain.
The flames are growing around me.
The wires dig deeper inside of me.
The circle closes.

Face your hell before you're leaving, friend.
The anxiety do not install your end.
Fighting the shadow cause more harm than it helps.
New ones appear and you're back once again.

When you're finally back here
There's nothing to fear.
Remember your heart and soul.
When the violence feels real,
it's only in your head.
Remember, the dark will fade.

The light will prevail.

With the rain falling down,
you'll always find shelter.
No matter how hard it falls.

When the lights goes out,
you should know that we trust you.
You'll find your way.

I can't feel any pain.
I can't feel any pain.
Pictures flashing around me.
The wires dig deeper inside of me.

I can't feel any pain.
No I can't feel any pain.
The flames are growing around me.
The wires dig deeper inside of me.
The spiral closes.

In due time when all the blood will appear.
It's only happening inside yourself.

The flames, I'll greet them welcome.
With flames, I'll fight this world.
The flames of pain and hunger.
I'll break this circle now and forever.

In the darkness below,
I found my cellar
deep inside of me.

Frail my bones were, constrained.
Injection, the gateway to my veins.
Forged in the circles of the drained.
I fought, the spirit locked in chains.

I shall shatter all the stone.
I shall conquer my golden throne.

The flames of darkness shows me what must be done.
Our guide in life, different puzzles, different mountains.
This one I'll climb, this one I'll face on my own now.

Alone.

I've found my cellar deep inside.
I've found the dweller deep inside the ring.

The mace of sorrow fiercely swings
it's defiling clouds now.

Somewhere you and I
share the same mind.

It aims for us on the outside.
It follows us now.

Sun of all, the brightest star
Shines on all, but the shadows are
Calling me, inside the forest
Of the conquered minds.
The prison in me blocks.

Mind repeats, its images
Of blood and tears, exploiting me
Haunting me, inside the back
Of my fragile mind.
My closed eyes shows me death.

The faceless master of my mind, she control
The blade swung by the hands of my own.
The scythe harvests her victims of choice.
I, the gateway of evil dissolve.

The restless nights of battling goes away.
In the darkest of times the light will show itself.
Cause in the end there's not much left to save.
When your lungs grasp for air, use your heart instead.

How am I supposed to feel?
How am I supposed to cleanse my mind?
In my greatest fight, I must be sure to win.
With my hollow self, I must become free.

Don't shed no tears, the flash will light your way.
The answers lies deep inside yourself.
Fighting the darkness is their way of strength.
Embrace your fears and It will go away.

I've faced the serpents one true king.
The claimers one true god.
Insidious ways he takes
When hunting his next prey.

Death, you'll wait.
For the time has not come yet.
Death, you shall wait.
For I ain't done here.

Precious life, it makes me wonder.

I've seen a life.
I've seen a life, taken.
I've seen the boat.
I've seen the capt. of the vessel.

I've seen his shade.
I've felt its dark, presence.
I've seen the end.
I've seen the lights go out.

But he only comes forth
in the presence of our hate.
And he only comes forth
when our homes begin to fail.

I've faced the god of flames in hell.
The demon under earth.
The throne of souls grows tall.
And his right hand collects.

Death, you'll wait.
For the time has not come yet.
Death, you shall wait.
For I ain't done here.

Death, death you'll wait.
Death you'll wait.

I've seen a life.
I've seen a life, taken.
I've seen the boat.
I've seen the capt. of the vessel.

I've seen his shade.
I've felt its dark, presence.
I've seen the end.
I've seen the lights go out.

But he only comes forth
in the presence of our greed
And he only comes forth
when our homes begin to fail.

In death, the flames are roaming free.
The fires keeping you from escaping.
In hell, countless times you die.
The fires keeping you from escaping.

But he only comes forth
in the presence of our greed.
And he only comes forth
when our homes begin to break.

Death, you'll wait.
For the time has not come yet.
Death, you shall wait.
For I ain't done here.

In the end of it all
There's no chance of being
Another you or me, still we're trying
To be so different from all, we forget ourselves
Our closest, my friend. We're sliping away.

Before the end, there's
so much at stake.
In the future's aim.

The things we hold
close We're giving away.
To time and it's pace.

Away.

Bleeding from the heart and soul.
Leaving nothing in our bowls.
Searching answers south to north.
The compass only points at gold.

In the light of the sun
There's no certainty
That burning fire will stay.

Before the end, there's
too much at stake.
For us to throw it away.

The things we hold
close We're giving away.
To time and its haste.

Away.

Bleeding from the heart and soul.
Leaving photos in our homes.
Searching answers south to north.
The compass only points at gold.

When you see them go,
them leaving this world.
You'll realize how much you've lost.

Only in dreams you see them, but your tongue won't let you.
Speak out your mind or whatever's on you.

You fall.

You fall back in, into the sky of ours.
Down to earth, our home where
the living are born in darkness.

Mother, can't you see that I'm okay?
It hurts in my heart to see your eyes
Close that morning. Different from all,
You put me through life with patience.
Now that it's gone, there's a hole in the dark,
Inside of me now.

I'm broken.
This feeling’s alive
The shortness of breath drains my well-being slowly.

Mother, can you hear me from down here?
The wise do depart,
With luggage from past,
I'll face the blackness.

I'll remember your way
Of fighting this world.
I'll stand my ground now.
And before it all ends,
I'll graciously embrace
The fight you fought with me.

I'm broken.
This feeling’s alive
The shortness of breath drains my well-being slowly.

When there's fear in your heart, don't you dare cry.
I'll be watching, watching you.
When your life tries to spark, don't you let go.
Don't let your tears make this fire go out.

With the fear of no shelter, you'll build one yourself.
With fear, you'll make it through the night.
When the tears fills your eyes, don't let them know.
First you rebuild your fortress.

When there's fear in your heart, don't you dare cry.
I'll be watching, watching you.
When your life tries to spark, don't you let go.
Don't let your tears make this fire go out.

The gateway's open.
They've heard their call.
Thunder among the mountains.
The rain has yet to fall.

The sky has darkened.
Our army's small.
Our days are counted.
The end of all.

I remember herds
Of people screaming in fire.
I remember storms
by the wings of a dragon.

Can't feel my hands
from the climb up the wall.
When death emerge
we'll see the dawn one last time.

The fire's sweeping.
And when the flesh has hardened.
Our life's aberration.
Turns dust to with the kill.

The sky has blackened.
Our army's none.
Our life's in furnace.
The end of all.

I remember herds
Of people screaming in fire.
I remember storms
by the wings of a dragon.

Can't feel my hands
from the climb up the wall.
When death emerge
we'll see the light one last time.

The rain, help us gods.
The reckoning of our fallen.
In flames, the world stands still.
Flames and ashes in our homeland.

Flames.
