As all begins so shall it end again From nothing into nothing once more. Just a void of darkness and emptiness, Everything devoured into nothingness. It’s the dawn of a new era where existence As such will be purged by itself And the ashes it leaves will be used as the soil. Rise, born from cinder. Rise, the new dawn is coming. Rise, born from cinder. Rise and shine. Within the realms of god, There will be nothing. Beyond the realms of god, Still nothing. From the ashes of the past Comes the ashes of the future! As all has ended so shall it begin again, From nothing into nothing once more. Just a void of darkness and emptiness, Everything devoured into nothingness. The cycle goes on and on! Rise, born from cinder. Rise, the new dawn is coming. Rise, born from cinder. Rise and shine.

An arching gate Stands on the path, Revealing a trail to the house on the hill. Desolate willows flailing and howling, Skeletal gargoyles that stare at my soul. Crookbacked bridges Spanning the depths, Wisdom and wonders are urging me on. Shapes in the distance, Statues that warn me, Whispering threats of the place I belong. I dwell in between, Entwined deep in my mind. I seek to find The creations of my fears. Shifting shapes, Unforming eyes, Echoes of sights, Sundered cries, Beckoning voices, Mazes of sounds. Embrace! Trails lit in shadows, Routes misaligned, Glimpses of the future are almost in reach. The archways are screaming, They urge me to leave Though my intuition tells me that I must go on. I dwell in between, Entwined deep in my mind. I seek to find The creations of my fears. As I entered the gates of the castle Cracks in the walls began to appear. I need to let go of what I thought was real, To find the comfort in how I feel. It's time to embrace my own insanity And see the beauty in this twisted reality.

The eyes that stare from the gorges of damnation Feast with their little fingers on the flesh from my bones. The eyes, they stare with impatience Waiting for a chance to sink their teeth... Death to mankind! Darkened entities - soulless tyrants, in the shadows they dwell. Self righteous mongrels on a rampage with the executioner's sword. And as the blade falls The order upholds. As righteousness unfolds, This plague will take us all. The eyes that stare, filled with death and hatred Bleed from the filthy visions of those not of the same blood. The eyes, they bleed from the hatred, unleashing fury over all. Death to mankind! The hordes of undying armies Conquering the world beneath them. Their numbers growing ever stronger, Gathering united in hate. The eyes that stare from the gorges of damnation Feast with their little fingers on the flesh from my bones. The eyes, they stare with impatience Waiting for a chance to sink their teeth... Death to mankind!

Imprisoned in a cell In a corner of my mind, I feel the surge from inside As realities collide. I am caged inside this nightmare, The bars are closing in. I suddenly felt a warmth from inside, As light got devoured by total dark. …And then I heard voices bouncing off the walls In languages I could not understand... Darkened eyes, bloody knives, The carnage has begun. Sacrificed another one To brighten up the darkness within. As I escaped the shackles of my sanity, I prepared myself to descend through the darkness of my mind. I took my sword and shield and put on the armor of thorns. The path was narrow and dark but at the end I saw the light. Imprisoned in a cell In a corner of my mind, I feel the surge from inside As realities collide. I am no more in this nightmare I am the mare itself. First there was one and then came another Until I no longer could keep the count. …And then I heard voices bouncing off the walls In languages I could not understand... Darkened eyes, bloody knives, The carnage has begun. Sacrificed another one To brighten up the darkness within.
