On his head the mark of life in death
For those who have eyes to see
For those who find without looking
The offspring of chaos
Fallen from the tree of the unborn
Spreading the black seed
Of final victory
Oh, holy flesh
From your ashes We shall nourish our breed
And through the purifying fire of Nigredo
We shall forever gaze into the deep
On our head the mark of death in life
For those who seek the light of obumbration
For the keepers of the flame

There’s no conscience but I
The vulgar sun shining at its adverse zenith
Proceeding from the centre
Of your parasitic realm’s involution
Burning from the ruins of your crumbling empire
Never setting
Eternally radiating
There’s no truth but I
The black light collapsing
Into the ultimate singularity
Incarnating the triumph of flesh
Over the corpses of your failures
Crushing the nine gates
Perpetually devouring
There’s no god but I
BOTH EYES OPEN!
Blood spills from the calix’ paten
The mouth opens
Schichirion, Necheshirion
The night opens…

This world must be read backwards
With infernal insanity
And the profanity of self aspiration
Nothing left to chance
What once was shall lead the way
For the past is the key
And the body is the path
To what should have been
This world you know must be set ablaze
To guide the journey to the nightside of awareness
And the dark substrate of existence
Nothing left to chance
Our will shall lead the way
For the past is the key
And the body is the path
To what should have been

Here a new realm is born and another dies
An agonising shadow consumed at last
Hear the shallow breath of this arid sphere
Standing at the centre of an empty horizon
Spinning against time and dictatorship of judgement
Here a new era is dawning
Built on the bleached bones of the purified
Giving way to the total putrefaction of the soul consuming itself
Leaving only the unspoiled remains of an ageless lucid dream
Here the survivors will join the unborn
Feasting in unending joy
Spinning the wheel of beginningless time
All in one
One in all

She hums beyond the lies of doubt
She sings with lascivious hunger
Blood flowing like volcanic lava
To break the cycle of life
To wipe the slate clean
Rebirth!
Heed her call
Seek her out and dissolve back to the darkness you breed
In her redness, time and will defy
In her ecstasy, universes imploding back to nought
She hums beyond the flame pulling us inward
She sings in serpentine fluctuations
To reconcile past and future
To pierce the cosmic billows
Universes imploding back to naught!

And now chaos will be your robe
Its splendour will be your essence
May the night open its jaws
And annihilate your enemies
May the gardens of insanity spread open
And lead your path to the truth therein
Wanderers from the light
Dwellers in the abyss
Forget your birth names
And take on the innocence of the flesh in full
And may you eradicate all lies
And may you lurk in the unknown
And may you face the draught of the spirit
While you become the ultimate void

“The night is your shroud, dark goddess, the eye is your womb.
We enter through the gate and become one with your being.
Full is emptiness, silence speaks and darkness is light.
The Star shines in the sea and waves follow in the steps of the Dragon.”

From tomb to womb
In rapid successions
The common man is no more
Layer by layer, all gone
Submit to the new light
The eternal sculptor of the form
Beyond the margins of the passing time
We can now see thought the earthly limitations
The clouds of Nigredo
And the absurdities of the matter
It takes sacrifice to win the eternity
From womb to tomb
No escaping
Submit, forget, incinerate the ego
To acquire a treasure and call it your own
