ANTHEMS OF ISOLATION LYRICS

1. Signs of Cataclysm

We fight to live, at the doorstep of extinction
As the nature once again declares our indistinction
Colors of life fade while death embraces the lands paramountcy of man decays, in vengeance for deeds of his own hands

Those moments of glory seem to shrink
While we're reminded of our trivial insignificance

For it's not our judgement to make, and it absolutely never been
For existence is nothing but mere coincidence

Stench of death spreads, pale skins pile on the path to unholy burials
Screams of the dying are heard as we march towards our destined future
Our destined future!

The days of darkness reign again, slowly it all ends in agony
The sign of impending calamity is the only reality (spoken)

I sense the storm of our downfall, I can see the sign of doom (spoken)

A premonition for
An analogous end, to the annihilation by Enlil
Resemblance of the bygone days of ancient demise
With permeating pain like a thousand fires
Devouring it all
Devouring everything

Nature's plague shall prevail
And man's gods are bound to fail

The planet purging is about to begin

It shall cast shadows upon our world
The apocalypse I foresee, I am the harbinger of anguish
The Resemblance of the bygone days of humanity's ancient demise

Casting shadows upon us
A resemblance of the bygone days, of our ancient demise

The planet purging is about to begin

2. Withering Divinities

Raise your hands, ask for mercy
Shed your tears, plead for forgiveness
On your knees, beg for their grace
Beseech with closed eyes, for your fragile existence

Silent are the ones above, as the world below slowly decays
And careless they seem to be,
As we await our inevitable end and dig our own graves.

The shrine of lies in the golden halls
Helpless before the cries of their thralls
Vicious faiths to end it all

Delighted by your suffering, they stare down with vanity.
The long since decisive illusions, for the fate of humanity (singing)
Divinities wither, so did their precursors
Confined in places of fear, mentally-oriented to our ancestors path

Delighted by your suffering, they stare down with vanity.
The long since decisive illusions, for the fate of humanity

Battle the demons as they're destined to perish
Evade a deception you that shall not cherish.
Mankind's ultimate enigma is still unsolved
Yet we are too dead to care, too lifeless to pursue

Their supplicating voices echo in vain
Their paths are dark and void

Do they listen? Do they even exist?
The truth
Inconsequential and meaningless.

3. The Deep Dark Ocean: Part I

Sensing the unwillingness to endure
At the shores of the black ocean
Dwelling in the distant fortress of gloom
In despise of all shapes of life
Haunted by the beasts of horrifying nights
Consumed by sleeplessness, I yearn the past

Yet the sands of time did not cease to flow
Lost between the nostalgia and the mourning for the death in me
And still I linger, still I wander, thus wretchedly I step towards the unknown
I step towards the uncharted
The uncharted

Quickly I drift down into the black abyss
With mysterious feelings of rage
The rumbling waves of the deepest of oceans
With them I'm plunged into a place of angst

In the frozen moment in time, when all grows obscure
The withering leaves fall down in the face of a storm
The fires in the desert, indicating the indefinite of nothingness
Of my nothingness
My nothingness
Nothingness

4. The Deep Dark Ocean: Part II

Those martins are jaded by the frosty cold of winter, longing to see the dawn of spring

Screams of silence, unheard cries from an isolated corner of existence
I have tried to fight the omnipresent ghost, yet I failed
Since his horrid entity to me has been unveiled

And it haunts me
It haunts me down

For tragedy is an essential part of reality
And to endure in life is to be in agony

Restless soul is the sentence, and the future for me to be
Sentenced to life, the sun dims within me
The sun dies within me

Oh darkness
I have become yours, and you've become a part of me

When the walls are closing in, I wonder if everything is even real
As a way or lie to numb the pain
An escape to an illusive sanctuary

I feel the weight of mountains is upon me
Detached from the wheel of time

Oh darkness
I have become yours, and you've become a part of me
With broken dreams and weary hopes, collapsing are my highest of walls

And inside the coldest of waters
Further I founder into the deep dark ocean
Restrained by the chains of my inner demons
Muffled by the haunts of my yesterday
I step into the conundrum, only to vanish within my own reflections
I am vanishing, within my own reflections

Further I founder into the deep dark ocean

5. As Pazuzu Rises

Lord of destruction and bringer of plagues
Son of Hanbi, king of all evils
Ruler of malevolent forces
Through the incantation I call thee

By your power, the scourge will cover the earth
Alterer of human perception
With you we once prospered
And by your will we shall perish

As I walk amongst the stones of the lifeless
I sense no mercy in these barren lands
For thy will have prevailed

For the will of Pazuzu have prevailed

Oh bearer of storms, let the eternal rest embrace us
Your winds gather from the mountains of the underworld
I summon thee, who ascends the mighty summits
Demise is what you shall deliver, for you are it's bringer

Thy will shall prevail

"Hail Pazuzu, angry wind, whose rising is terrible.
Fierce one, raging one, who destroys the high mountains, who roars at the world regions."

6. Darkness at The End of The Tunnel

Earth is filled with chants of grief
The purging of the planet have started
As we stand helpless in this ominous living
The forces of death march for our ending
Cyclical tales of the end of the world

We have shaped the cross we bear
There comes the punishment as hopes begin to wear

We stand on the edge, brimming with despair
The demonic whispers in our head have brought us there
Have brought us there
Those demons are invisible, though they're not fairy tales

Their destructive nature can be sensed, and it still prevails

Volcanoes erupts from deep within, destroying all from beneath the skin
They fly us to the highest of mountains, then throw us down to the lowest of grounds
Lungs grew smaller as we strive to breathe, our bodies shuddered with no relief

No light at the end of the tunnel, there can be seen
The path seems bleak, immedicable is the disease

They return back for our haunt, yet more forceful and tormenting
And there we stand helpless, before a dominance unrelenting

At the battle with the invisible foe
Struggling to grasp yet the curtain falls

We have shaped the cross we bear
We have shaped the cross we bear
