The sky calls to us to reach
And see beyond our fragile lives
Our useless hatred
The world cries beneath our smoke
Digging the hole – bury the dead
Godspeed you – children of men
The fire of life blankets the sky
They pray and pray for an end
Abhorrent bloodlust and hatred
A heavy weight on the back of our kind
Digging the hole – bury the dead
Godspeed you – children of men
Gaze at the sky
Future and past.

Waking up to eternal darkness
Remembering who and what I am
So far past the point of separation
All of my brothers – so many lives in darkness
Cold and silent
I can’t hear them anymore
I’m alone out here
Haunting me like dreams from infancy
Memories of the ones I left behind
Cold and silent
I can’t see them anymore
I’m alone out here
So far from home I begin to lose my mind
Memories not my own
No light will touch my eyes
I signal in vain
I will never cast a shadow
Eternal black existence
Infinity surrounds me and I can see forever
Falling for an eternity
I’m alone out here
As I stare into the abyss - it stares back into me
As I stare into the abyss – it stares back
Destroys my mind.

Disciples of the sound
Drowning demons in noise
To hide from silence and find strength in volume
In times of struggle - immense frustration
It soothes the anger and urge to kill
Running from nothing
A witness to life
As black dogs gather to howl in my mind
Seeking relief – their endless pursuit
Channel the Earth through smoke and volume
Another day with nothing achieved
Nothing to show for time wasted
I found a place where I can burn
Boulder pedestrian I am become the abyss
Consuming ether in my wake
I will suck the life from me
Until all I breathe is bones

I could sit here forever
And watch the light fade from the sky
This drink lightens my burden
And makes the walls fade from my sight
Haunted by those eyes
A sacrifice I couldn’t make
So many lost
There was no time
Hunted – unknowable enemy
A memory older than our kind
We can’t stay here forever
And watch the walls fall down around us
Anger burns in me
A sight focused on furious revenge
Haunted by those eyes
There was nothing I could do
So many lost
I’d die trying
Hunted
No more will I be
Hunter
Nothing can stop me
I’m sorry
I should have died fighting
I lied to myself
In truth I just ran
I’m sorry they were left to suffer
You lacked the strength but I lacked the courage
Hunted to the brink of extinction
Hunted to the point of hopelessness
Hunted
What’s left of us must become
Hunter
An all-obliterating unstoppable force.

Bury me ‘neath mountains
In oceans, in forests
Age of the Earth
The death of a star
A drop in the ocean
A bullet in the war
Fueled by my hatred for all that we are
The wolf in the sky eats the gods in the end
The teeth and the soil and the mountains will reign
There is pain where thought is free
There is no justice there is only me
Bury me ‘neath mountains
In oceans, in forests
Fueled by my anger at all that I see
I don’t want the cure I would rather be sick
The heartbeat of mountains beats inside of me
The wolf in the sky eats the gods in the end
The teeth and the soil and the mountains will reign
Water will always find a path
There is no justice there is only death
Mountain high
Sledgehammer to the face of reality
Smashing the bones of that which deceives thee
Tear down the walls to reveal what is true
Open the eye in your mind
He laughed at me
I cursed his name
Attacked his reason
He just laughed at me
He laughed at me
Made me understand
Now I laugh with him
The wolf eats the gods in the end
Mountain high
Climb.

Waiting there for the darkness to call him
Thinking on what he leaves
He’ll go out eyes blazing
Facing death as he did life
All the ways he slowly killed himself
Have found form
Abeyant reaper
Under this surface
Stark honesty
Unrepentantly what not to be
Brother afflicted unquenchable anger
He watched him fight until his fight went out
Go on home
Take care of the family
Back to the cell
Back to where he belongs
Under this surface
Stark honesty
Unrepentantly what not to be
Boots in the harbor
Food for the night
His seed grew sound
He feels alright
Strapped myself in I’m ready to go
Made my peace now let’s rock and roll
A last ride dose now a star rover
Adrift through space and time forevermore
One more celestial trip before I go
Entheogenic end to my road
If only you could see me now
All these years, break my back by day
Coughing up guts every night
I've had my share, sustained by sound
Now I'm ready to go
I'm so sick of dying so hard
Constantly wracked by pain
But I won't go quiet
Make my way by flight
Go Hard into oblivion.
