[Instrumental]
2.
Moving ever so swiftly, though laden with darkness A hideous entity not of this Earth Interdimensional voyager, marooned on this plane Made to suffer our existence each time anew In our mirrored halls we made it coalesce A tangible form; abominable embodiment Of our hate Of our suffering Of our baleful will Restrained - bound by our science We thought it safe for our consumption As we distilled its essence Made it bond with our form We grew unimaginably Beyond the scope of our comprehension Our halls will reverberate with thunderous celebration And our ships will seek new lands to conquer Woe to all we meet in our travels We will consume them as we've consumed ourselves As cell is to organism As Earth is to Hell As man is to God This demon is to us As above, so below As within, so without A reflection of our most vile imaginings Ripped from a shared consciousness and laid bare
3.
Cosmic anathema Consigned to eternal torment To be released from its bonds When a greater threat looms In a distant reality Arose these beings Evolutionary anomalies Capable of reason and thought Doomed to our own folly Our fires burned for two-hundred millenia Smoke rising through our Empyrean plane Tendrils reaching across the void Calling to the tortured prisoner As motes of dust Moving through a pillar of light Smolder and burn So we were caught in the sight of this horror To be lit aflame Its gaze piercing through dimensional fog Casting the shadow of our death Destroyer of worlds Devourer of reality Threatening violence On our existence Punishment for eons of destruction Because we are the ouroboros eating the world Its legions darken our skies As all life stops one sound rings out I owe you pain
4.
Beautiful orb Beacon of hate Reflection of our suffering Your surface taut Tenebrous swirls dancing upon it Inviting me to swallow and sink Filtered visions settling on me In your crystalline keep you slumber Navigating a dreamless void Eternally waiting Listening only for the call of your master A wail plagued with sadness and remorse Expressing regret for its present condition Bearing witness to your form I ache for your attention Achromatic tendrils lovingly caress my mind And then they thrust their way into my thoughts Tearing all apart I urge you, enter me Make me one with you I will shine on As the sleeper in the keep Devourer of shadows Bringing darkness to all humanity Beautiful orb Beacon of Hell Reflection of our suffering We are doomed He grows tired Of our ways Suffer Him
5.
If you want to end the world Then start with me For I am the catalyst Bringing forth the conclusion of this narrative That above shall perish in silence For that below rises to consume These mortal spheres Shall quake in fear As the world comes to know the Beast
