Dead under the ground
The blind leading the blind
Behind the advancing line
The blind leaving the blind
The aspirant's dreams
Turn into nightmares
Bones ground into dust
Crushed underfoot
Left - right - left
Crows plucking out my eyes
Oblivious to my loss
Rejected messiah
Hanging helpless on your cross

i. The Wanderer
Delve into your mind wondering what you'll find
A distant forlorn man, the space to understand
too far gone
ii. The Realist
Baleful stars become our creation
Swirling cosmic dust in a constant state of flux
in time
Risen from the sea only to receive
Cursed destiny as far as the I can see
too far gone
Knowledge is heavy - to realize is pain
The burden of understanding
it is a right to bear
iii. The Cynic
By proxy we live - by proxy we'll die
Nightmarish hubris, reality fiction
militant servitors uphold religion
Operated on the table - is it someone who should die?
Would it matter if it were I?
iv. The Believer
I've never before been this afraid
of the depths where monsters lie
I know we all know
of no priest to exorcise
Please god help me
O heavenly father what should I do
to make you leave me alone
v. The Atheist

In Search of the Sun

It was in the air
They did not see, they did not hear
The sound of the trumpets
From near and afar
A lifetime of lie
Obscured by their truth
In search of the sun
No door can shut them out
No bolt can turn them back
Through the door like a snake they glide
Through the hinge like the wind they blow
Behind the veil conspire
To bring about the end
Four riders of the fall
Meet on the grassy knoll
A lifetime of lie
Consumed by their truth
In search of the sun
A wasteland of ignorance

Sifting through your decadence
Feasting on what you might have called filth
Each day we thank you for this providence
As we crawl through the valley of your death
A crumbling concrete monument
Monolithic tombs of men
Each day we hiss a solemn requiem
Singing for a new birth for this earth
Sykkii - ei kuole
Elää - ei kuole
Brother against brother
Survivor
Embrace mortality
Surviving
Keeps living on and on
