Perimetr 09:10
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

The Atheist 12:19
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

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

Attar 11:34
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

about

Temples Finland

"Temples is a musical journey to the edges of the world, the dreamworld, the subconscious, life, existence, oblivion, sensitory control, concentration, reflection, enlightenment of the conscious and the realization of self."
