"By descent
By inherited grace
Off another hand’s work
Off another hand’s theft
The payment comes as owed
The given
Will be given again
The gathered
Will gather further still
The wretched
The wicked
The golden heir
From father to son
For glory
For splendour
Eternally
For glory
For them
Wretches dressed in spite
Covet what is mine
Take their rank below
Undying lineage
Eternal
Heralds sing
My lauded name of old
Reverent
To endless stories told
Their light is my light
Their glory shines through me
Their light is my light"

02 Signum 05:55
"These words are treason from any other mouth.
This lectern, corrupted, mistaken for a throne
In time you’ll divine the law remains
Your place is still at my feet
Requisite subversion
Undermining ordained word
Adorned salvation
Placate the heedless herd
Gilded
Fingers point the way
Stare in reverence
Self-avowed
Saviour
Masked and veiled
Heed the sceptre
The hand that holds the throat
Breathe the air
The gift I grant your blood
The righteous
Are bound
To purpose
Beyond
The cravings
The needs
The weakness
Of lesser men
The chosen
Bloodline
Will not suffer
Usurpers"
~
03 Rescission 11:20
"Tower
To tower
Martyrs
Will lie
With vow of endless life
My name is carved in time
The fire will lay the path
The salt will heal
Oh, pretender
Weigh the burden on your back
False reflection
Will you give what I would take?
Oh, pretender
When the hour bears down
False reflection
Would you break?
Cowards
Take mutual ends
Meet me
Wherever we go next"
~
04 Hecatomb 17:12
"From the end of aspiration
For the sum of what remains
We are crushed against the outer edge
Of a circle by your gain
The endless spiral you venerate
Suffocates and grinds
What’s left of life
In paradise
The sacred few
Left behind
Perpetual rise
In a finite realm
Can you see to the horizon?
Can you see beyond your vault?
The scale tips ever further
The fulcrum subsides
Equal once more
Buried under the ash you wrought
Yield
This is your yield
Can you see to the horizon?
Can you see beyond?"
~
05 Samsa 22:39
"Caustic
Forces corrode
Even
Immortals
The clock can be smashed
But night still falls
The road may be long
The wheel still turns
Inevitable rise, inevitable fall
Claw at the walls, bury the gold
Pick the carcass
Sleep on stolen time
Live well as a scavenger
Pick the carcass
Grow old on stolen life
Die well as a scavenger
Despised
Baron of spoils"
~
06 Enso 26:32
"Place your faith in me
The mantle is mine
Lay your weight on me
Though heavy is the charge
Clawing towards sunlight
Faded warmth above
This corroded ladder of deeds
Reaching out below
I will climb on their backs
As you climb on mine
Corroded tower smiles over me creating shelter
The coolness of the hover, sending shivers down my spine in ancient cower
Change evolves me, makes me seem like a stranger
Mirrors start to show me reflections I encounter
In only blatant measures have I ever been such a famous monster
Or am I just someone they recognize with haunted shadows
Release me
Let me shiver alone
Now leave me
Fulfil
The natural order
Honour
The savage order
Horror has me by the throat
I’m choking only because I’m scared to be alone
Eyes stare forward
Glazed in gore
Fixated on another step"
~
07 Karst 33:15
"Brave
Lay your body down
As foundations
Of my empire
Brave
Lay your body down"
~
08 Verte 38:44
"Borne away
How great the name must be
To hold this weight
Absent revenant
Return to the waste you forsake
Abandoned covenant
Burned
No grace
No hand extended
Caving in
Facing out alone
Are there not enemies enough
Without failing those within?
Let nobility hang in shreds
That can’t withstand the tearing claws of life
Saviour, keep your name
Stand where you drew the line
Martyr, hold your vow
Fall where you said you would
Stand where you drew the line
Fall where you said you would"
