Track Name: Casus Gloria
Shine! Night of day,
Beast of life
LIGHT OF DEATH

Unveiling the crumbling foundations
of creation and life;
only to tear them apart!

SÏC TRANSIT GLÖRIA MUNDÏ

O' SECLUSIVE STAR,
I breathe thy bidding
A thousand times,
how I've died for thee

I've walked through FIRE
ages past
And I am still BURNING!

Close my eyes, it's all the same
Re-open them and everything is changed
Boiling blood, a racing heart
SERVANT OF THE END!
A necessity of sacrifice
To reach the circles end
And so to skin flesh from bones,
rise above and serenade DEATH

I claw at the HEAVENS, HOLY BLOOD
To breach the walls of LIGHT
Though ascending rapidly,
these wings cannot bear me YET!
Feast on flesh,
a chalice of pain
to nourish the sword,
for it will strike again!
Again to skin flesh from bone
To enter HIS gates,
O' JOYOUS DEATH!

I walked through FIRE
And I am still BURNING!
Track Name: Shed Old Skin
CONCENTRATION, CONSECRATION!
Rabid insurgent with
failed comprehension

SANCTIFY ? DESECRATE!
Tranquilize the dragging weight
Transcendence on dragon wings
For ye shall not perish if not
by the LORD.

BELIEVER! DECEIVER!
Speak of DEATH as speak of lies
A lie repeated a thousand times
becomes truth through its own perseverance!

BLESSED BONES? CURSED DUST!
I drag and I slither
to draw thee hither!

DESTROYER! DEVOURER!
Thou that giveth and
thou that taketh away,
I stand before thee as an instrument!

Sightless sight
Lifeless life
Doubtless conviction

I rise and I fall and I shed my skin
to search for the temple wall and to crawl within
for so to be as though I've NEVER been

INTUS EST CLAVICULA!
And remember thus;
For there is only one way,
though the path may lead astray!

Want not; CRAVE! TAKE!
the powers of a GOD,
of ETERNITY!

I rid of the flesh, and
I rid of the self
and I am no more;

WE are one
WE are DEATH
WE are ALL
WE are NONE!

The lamb has shed its skin,
to reveal the serpent within!
