Drenched in an Ashen Fog (2017 Remaster)

Beneath the floor of geneology
Holds truth in this hollow blood
Vanishing from comprehension
Is the proof of the settled way

Burn in your mythical land
Let the fires consume your "souls"
The foul stench of rotting thought
Floats amidst in the wintering cold

I can remember when
You meant existence to me
The whithering travesties
Brand flesh with her sickening sign

Love me for molded skin
Until the flames are permitted to burn
Melting unbridled lust
Forever cursed by your bleeding eyes

Reject me... Hate me
No pain too weak
No force too strong

Degrade me... Rape my mind
No thought too harsh
Release the lions

Experience the casualties and
Feel the pain
Sovereign leader - Demagogue
Of fallacy
Sole survivors of common sense
Are ridiculed

Greatness seen in naked eyes
Until their close demise

Reject me... Hate me
No pain too weak
No force too strong

Degrade me... Rape my mind
No thought too harsh
Release the lions

Illegitimate prophecy
Cacophonous sounds
Of Philomel

Dead, feeble species
Claimed as just
But walking blind

So few words need to be said
Your primitive lives explain all

Eradicating brain cells
With each justifiable proof

How dead the concept is
Shudder to think upon it

But, yet, one can't avoid
The muttering of mindless nonsense

Kill the local idiot
In this decaying Earth
Poisoning our cups
Each and every day

Like some immunity
That few have failed to see
Symbolic lamb-the leader
Of conformity

So few words need to be said
Your primitive lives explain all

Eradicating brain cells
With each justifiable proof

How dead the concept is
Shudder to think upon it

But, yet, one can't avoid
The muttering of mindless nonsense
