lyrics

It is not in hatred I place this knife upon your chest
From the open wounds I conceived a new world
For a time it all made sense, if even for a split second
For a time it all made sense, if even for a split second

My dream is my will
And my will is to power
I will craft life itself
In my own image

From the carcasses of deities
We will build new temples
And foresee our futures
From the intestines of their prophets

I am the free will of man
The scattered pieces
Of a broken mirror
Reflecting thousands of glaring eyes

Beholding one another
In malign intent
A myriad of horrors
Lurking beneath the crackling surface

And what is there to hold back now
The Devils that crawl within our flesh
Like molten lava bursting through
The hissing lacerations upon the earth

Flocks of locust that spread forth
As the harbingers of the days to come
Torrents of machine gun fire
Amassed artillery and splitting atoms

We tried to murder the divine in man
And to usurp his throne
We encrowned the lowest in us all
As if reduced to our instinctual passions

Making love to our promethean flame
We came to ignore its origin
The archetypal conduit to the Empyrean
Which ennobles and elevates us

Through each shattered vision
Is reflected man, pathology and beast
The worms that slither through our guts
And the hatred that scalds our souls

Unshackled from the concept of morality
Disjoined from that which exalts us
We are gods trapped inside beasts
We are gods trapped inside beasts

It is not in hatred I sink this knife deep into your heart
More so in arrogant despair
One day it will all make sense, if even for a split second
One day it will all make sense, if even for a split second
