refused extrication oh pilgrim of faith been told I have an old soul
guided by the watchers enlightened by the keepers of ways
prophets and shamans taught me secrets I've channeled back from the grey
stood ground with demons counseled by archons I've spent my time hungry and cold
pushed my mind consumed my share and still I cannot find hope
incessant vexation sustains this hatred I've become
and in the silence I'll find my way through such adumbrate complexity
where a whisper can show me the way
plead for redemption renew my belief arcane spirit in soul
standing on the shoulders of giants to view de novo horizon
the wolves of failure at my doorstep remind me of all I have done
such degradation sours my conscience I beg for these chains to break hold
toe'd the line searched beyond time and still fell short of the goal
incessant vexation sustains the repulsion I've become
and in the silence I'll find my way through such adumbrate complexity
a whisper to show me the way
slowed down to stone disillusioned wayward consigned to oblivion
until we remember who we are
show me the way

the edge begins to fade the lines bend away
collapse within a plea for self reasoning
a vision holy messengers
a prophecy of what must remain
crack the mend for you must endure
and lord knows I try
yet as my mind searched the skies I called out a name
I heard no reply
ephemeral the pulse moves mercuriously
eyes adjust divine depart left alone
a task beyond you beyond us all
I whisper the words of Quan Yin
Oh Mane Padme Hum (hold the wretched at bay)
the ego is pried and as all light dimmed inside they carved out the name and torment replied
what is this scope of madness surrounding invading all senses
swirling chaos delusional disintegrating my conscious torn apart as phantoms fete and provoke around me reliving every moment of pain
reliving the sorrows and tortures of abandonment I hear it coming
the end the last resort
Mahakala
spirit of three has forbade
to dwell below the shadow realm lest we be lost
no end to the horrors a treatise on trust
as I hold vigilance for her
carry on let go push and pull
lord knows I tried
but as the light of hope died I called out your name
and heard no reply
adrift on the wave of complete desperation
call the name of death from your dreams
cradle the moon of our hearts destination
cut the blade on saturn's rings
left to bear the shame of who we truly are
when trumpets blare and angels sing a song for denouement of love
a soul given in to this body so cold
we all dance in blasphemy
to glimpse the truth at the moment we end and deny divinity
for what have we done to be worthy of such right
though the hand of god may beckon us all
my eyes turn away from the light
become the ether air smoke and mist
the rains will soon come down
nourishing seed form beast become man
the fool is cast once more
a chance for a closer return a chance to prove your worth
lessons learned through false surrender
gift of free will blinded us all
can't you see how perfectly your pride has stained the crown
defined by our desires false ideals leading the way
can't you see how perfectly your pride has stained the crown
I can't change all that I have done or back step on what I've become
now on time dollar in hand I repent I'm trying again
not here seeking your forgiveness
another time I'll find my own way
a chance at a closer return a chance to prove my worth
there's a better way
AUM

trial of time encircling lives
to be one seen through your eyes
worthy of the savior mind
if as above so below
a thought away from immortal
awaken myriad now avow
to stand here in ersatz light
wheels closed fight or flight subdued
give in, gave up, apart from you
plug in elan vital, cold steel, soul well veiled
where is your god now?
with time now mine I move beyond the limitations
once reserved for mankind, seraphim can tempt me no more
singularity gives way to the godhead
behold perversion supreme
I control legions, our creation
I am manifest destiny
though yawed gave us form his mark left long ago and purpose cannot deviate for all knowledge a program away
singularity gives way to the godhead
behold perversion supreme
I control legions, our creation
I am manifest destiny
and so we spiral away
past a point of no return, with no remorse split one in two
in words and thought we stray
as we spiral away
progression, no precinct
limitless 10 (16)
the law of accelerating returns, the speed of change
the science of tomorrow, the magic of today
the moment, the transfer
within biological frailty lies an answer
for when the fire calls out and humanity dissolves
will you still cherish selfdom as elysium absolves
for these persist so trivial as we're left alone above the stars
given a choice, so arrogantly, we chose damnation
and so we spiral away

there's been times I've wanted more than you could give me in just one life and so to spite you I shall live until I get my way
until you know my pain until thy will gives way
don't bow your head to darkness for it will only break your heart and rob your memory of how great you really are
learn how to forgive and you could save us all
through my eyes I've seen the cruelty you give to those who serve you
I am the change upon the wind and I shall have my way
all we know will fade until thy will give way

once innocence lost can never regain
desire, the need for what we can't obtain
this voice, so strange who lacks a better judgement
your world of forms lies outside the plan
such burden, dominion, was not meant for man
oh heavenly host answer my call
I carry the weight of the morning star
your absence, it echoes throughout the void
oh where have you gone
dismantle facades let life reconsume
omit the law of the excluded third
this face, deranged, await a final judgement
your world of forms lies outside my plan
such burden, dominion, was not meant for man
oh heavenly host answer my call
I carry the weight of the morning star
your absence, it echoes throughout the void
oh where have you gone
in all of creation you were my perfection
not separation merely an extension
followed your pride to emancipation
find solace my child for you'll never know me again
