lyrics

Arise! Arise!
From the gutters that spread as our nerves arise!
Untie the Gordian knot wound within our throats
And let our voices fill the valleys, chasms and resound
Among the highest peaks

Unchained and unbound
Our hand strikes firm
Iron grip with an iron will
Clench now the iron fist

Ploughshares to swords
Redemption was never within our reach
For centuries we sought absolution
And found only despair

Ascend! Ascend!
With steady footing and trembling hands we ascend!
To take that which was always rightfully ours
To rule as emperors, kings and queens of our realms
And cut through the very fabric of creation

Let our senses hound the stars
And our hunger devour their light
And sink our thirsting veins
In the bottomless ocean depths

In search of God we have found
Only our own shattered reflection
Trauma, sin, guilt and fear
And the Devils laughing at our grief

Endless, meaningless wordplays
We spent generations
In trying to decipher
Ramblings of demented saints
Schizophreniacs and saviors
The skin torn from our shins
From kneeling before icons
We painted of our own aspirations
And projected into the heavens
Too weary and afraid
To comprehend the process
And the horrible void therein
That we give birth to God and can never truly murder him
And above and beyond our own desires
Lies nothing but ideas to which we bind ourselves to
And thus
Nothing is true and everything is permitted

So come now and rejoice!
For this new aeon is not for the weeping!
See the beyond-man arise in the Eastern sun!
As its rays wash ashore
And carry us beyond the stars!

Sailing West towards the azure twilight
Our arms extend past
The boundaries of our world
And our fingers coil around
The emptiness therein
