OSIAH LYRICS

1. Realm of Misery

[Instrumental]

2. The Second Law

A year?

Step by weary step I'm dragged
Into the keep
I pass the pillars of our deceased

Cadavers strewn (of the strong and wise)
Their bodies transformed
Their carbon forms turned to quartz
Unnatural physics fuels horror.

Trepidation fuels fight or flight
But these chains that bind
Drag me through this perverse tour
Of our extinction
I witness the fall of mankind

To be drained of our life force
To be drained of our life force
So where will my demise take me this time?
Will my soul carry on? Take flight?   
Or join the realm of misery
No, I will not die on my knees

I will defy you until the life vacates my eyes
And in a cold stare
I stand as a testament to all mankind
I will defy you until the life vacates my eyes
And in a cold stare
I stand as a testament to all mankind

Or so I thought
There'll be no happy ending this time
I'm shown my place
My existence; it's purpose to

Feed this damned depriver
The galaxies souls'
'Til it swallows their suns

So; who am I to defy
The natural order
Of the universe
Heat death
Will conquer all
And in the darkness
These beings will rise

Who am I to defy
The natural order
Of the universe
Feasting on sentient life
Feeds their magic;
Quantum fluctuation

3. Paracusia

Freedom, once again evades me
Another failed attempt by a cowards morality
Who are they to say? It's my choice; if I live or die
It's my life, all I've ever wanted to do is to live it

"But I wanna live it too"

You speak your mind as if you are forgiven
You are nothing, but a fucking parasite
You've brought damnation
Forlorn, terror, existence is God's error
So I decide; to return the gift of your life
Hear your words never again
"Never again?" Never again!

"Death by water you condemn me to?
Why you fool, I'll fucking drown you too."

Do not say I didn't warn you
Your words aren't welcome here
Do not say I didn't warn you
Your sounds; they will dissipate as you drown.

Breath by breath the parasite chugs water into my lungs
Breath by breath the parasite dooms my salvation.

Doctors search for a way to save me
"Doesn't Exist" Doesn't exist? "Doesn't exist."
Prayers have failed and the priests still fight, but I, do not believe you

"Why is it you still resist? Yield unto me. Yield unto me"

You do strive to deprive my sanity, with this rope I amend this immunity

In the loneliness of the night, I hear Hell whisper to me.
Speaking of torture to be found, and the Devil ...
I guess I'll see you soon
There's no hope.

God damn this monster that defies me
A peaceful life, I beg; serenity.
God damn the whisperer defiles me
Silence I plead for my sanity
Fuck you to the doctors that denied me
Respite from the torture that consumes me

God damn you're right I fucking hate you
Kick the chair; rather rot in Hell than let you live
And in my last breath, I hear it mock me.

4. Queen of Sorrow

Let the bridges burn
Erasing memories that have shackled ascension
Tried to take my life but it was a fucking bad phase
Hindsight became clear once I'd wiped the shit from my face

Subjugate to the matriarch
Bow down to the crown

If I knew what I knew now
My Gods would tremble before me
They'd stare with tears in their eyes
As I turn my back and march onto home.

I set my bridges ablaze,
The path I walk now shines brighter
Left my daemons there in the ash
March anew. The will; the will of pariahs.

Your name – bad taste in my mouth
So I spit you out!

Escape the matriarch
The Queen, the Queen of Sorrow
Escape the matriarch
The Queen, the Queen of Sorrow

Cold lies, spewed from a serpents tongue
Conceal manipulation
Cold lies, spewed from a serpents tongue
Ensures the subjugation

I set my bridges ablaze,
The path I walk now shines brighter
Left my daemons there in the ash
March anew. The will; the will of pariahs.

I am stronger all on my own
Where my feet tread will always be home

Never subjugated cause I fled your terror the first night
The people left behind will be the victims of suicide, promise.

5. Temporal Punishment

Gripped with consternation
Cold steel is my grave
I traverse constellations.

Fearful thoughts run through my head,
Do I lie upon my death bed?
Tell me, will this moment be the end of me?

Movements bedim my cage
Shadows enter from the side of my gaze
Movements bedim my cage
Shadows enter, approach my grave

Obsidian eyes
Stare straight into mine
Empty – empathy

No air in these lungs to scream,
I've clenched up, it's now impossible to breathe

Instincts to survive, though I wish I could just die, it's a curse now, the burden of life
Turn me off, let me die, bring me suicide.
End this; the burden of life.

Movements bedim my cage
Shadows enter, experiments engaged

Implementing laser beams to ensure the incisions' clean
Never was sedated, even my limbs were amputated, a worm under the scope of despicable beings

I no longer feel gravity embrace me
There's no solace for me

I arch my spine
But paralysis denies
Fueling the psychotic mind
A stasis state
Days roll by sawn and sewn

Purgatory;
Punishment is atonement,
It's mandatory,
To expiate, temporal punishment for sin

This worlds so cold;
There's no;

Mercy for me
Sentient beings that do not show any traits of cognitive empathy   
Mercy I plead
Sentient beings that do not show any traits of cognitive empathy   

Cut to me screaming in my bed.
Torturous scene happened in my head?

This place feels like home but there's something wrong, I watch the shadows creep around me.

The shadows; approach me.

6. Loss

White sand and lilac snow
Insults my eyes I miss the meadows
I fear my beautiful dreams,
For they take me back; to when my spirit was free

These memories, they rip away at me

I fear my beautiful dreams
They take me back, gift me my memories
I fear my beautiful dreams
They take me back, but I'd rather forget

Head trauma, amnesia
I bite on the heels of my captor
If only for a second he would lose his cool and break
He'd cave my head in true, save me from the torture that's due
If I didn't die (God forbid I would survive)
Then the brainless husk would inevitably take my place

You take it for granted
The will to survive
You take it for granted
'Til you're yearning to die

Cold hearts don't thaw
I'm lonely forever
In this world of pain
Your emotions will drag you down

Makes it harder to disassociate

[Guest: Jason Evans]

Ambitious, seditious so venomous and vicious.
The word is the law but the word is fictitious.
In sorrow they weep, stirred from slumber so deep,
The sin and the saint so suspicious.

Days turned to weeks
I'm confined in this torturous place
Bound to life – they won't let me die
'Til I've been replaced

You take it for granted
Each breath you take
You take it for granted
'Til you're yearning to die

[Guest: Jason Evans]

Ambitious, seditious so venomous and vicious.
The word is the law but the word is fictitious.
In sorrow they weep, stirred from slumber so deep,
The sin and the saint so suspicious.
Beyond the grave,
We are enslaved,
The sin and the saint so suspicious.
We are enslaved.
Beyond the grave.
Enslaved.

7. Terracide Compulsion

Let me start this shit with a little warning, I'm now going to speak my mind,
Within this peaceful shell, lies fury at mankind.
I am scum too, but, I have conceded

You too must surrender yourself esteem to the reality of your existence
Your life suffers by your hand, we've taken this life for granted
Why the fuck would I create a child, to suffer this shit hole you call home   
To watch a beautiful mind, slowly decay through stress

Watch their dreams
Be crushed; by the weight of the world
Fear not, unborn child
I won't condemn you

I'll wait, for a world where we are not broken,
Where our eyes no longer gaze at the dirt, but the stars

I fear I will wait too long
Let my legacy continue with song

I just feel like life is not valued
The rarest gift; we're the only living planet
And we are killing it, each other,
All heed, the power of;

Fuck this life I say
We're better dead anyway
Let life try again
The worlds fucked anyway

We walk, single file through the Anthropocene.
Take all living beings with us
Inherit this world

Never again
Bear the scars
Never again
Cut the cord

The great legacy, left by the Anthropocene;
Will be a layer of polyethylene

Bear the scars
Never again
Cut the cord

8. The Eye of the Swarm

The Eye of the Swarm
They were born in a cesspit of a world
Until they embraced the wyrm gods,
To be born anew, servants of darkness

To live and die by the logic of the sword
Their tribute to the dark, eradication of the weak

Only the strong shall survive
And the strongest of the swarm shall rule,
Those who worship the light will ultimately end up proven as fools

Travel the stars
To proliferate; the shadow
Travel the stars
Propagators of sorrow

[Guest: Ben Duerr]

Consuming the carrion of offspring, for there is eternal life within the larvae
From their bodies they extract all weakness holding function over fragile flesh
Crawling deep within a host, the ability to recreate as they see fit
For where there's imperfection or injustice, they will succumb to the hive mind
Within their hosts, an undefeatable mass
Within their hosts, the darkness shall outlast all
Never again shall the enemies of darkness seek to emerge against the unfathomable dominance of pure perfection
A system enduring.

The Eye of the Swarm.

There lies a curse; in this empowering larvae
They're consumed within, if its host disobeys their purpose

Travel the stars
They're bound to obey their nature
Travel the stars
They're bound by conjecture

Existence is the struggle to exist
Terror falls on the lambs to the slaughter
Only the species of war shall survive against;
These crusaders of death

War cry across the stars
They watch the suns, flicker in fear.

Darkness, to swallow all light,
Remove the parasite (weak)
The ones who feast but have no right,
Darkness has come to swallow all.

9. War Within Our Walls

Chaos ensues amongst the chapel
They're not amused by those pitiful beings
The word on their lips was subterfuge,
This was considered as rude

They fell for the lies of the Judas Goat
He'd lead the cattle to the slaughterhouse
Brave men who'd bite the hand that feeds
They fell for the lies of the Judas Goat
They knew they'd the numbers to succeed
The day was won if not, for the power of by greed.

Who can you trust, when you can't trust yourselves

They'd decided to live their life
Conquer the darkness, bathe in light
End the rule of their tyranny
For their rights they will fight

Their fates were sealed, to be;
Slain one by one, there's rats in these walls
Slain one by one, there's rats in these walls (greed)
Slain one by one 'til the daybreak shows the blood-soaked gallows

Winding the tunnels of the labyrinth
This place could well be their tomb
But the Judas Goat waits for his time; the spirit of the people to consume

He leads them on – the lies of a coward
Taken as truth, for he was one of their own

His palm was paved with gold, (transaction pending)
For the spirit of his people, was to be sold

They'd decided to live their life
Conquer the darkness, bathe in light
End the rule of their tyranny
For their rights they will fight
To the grave

A voice in the darkness

Behead the traitors
Peel their flesh, then decapitate survivors
Show them that resistance will be ineffective.
Traitors; send their flesh to the families who mourn them
Show them that resistance will be ineffective.

Behead them all
Bar those, who bend the knee,
They will return to devastate humanity
Kneel before she,
And arise; a Judas Goat

10. The Ominous Mind

Alone, I wander this world
Obscured in shadow
I drag my feet across the sand
Carved a valley of sorrow
In terror I cry
Beheld; the end of my life.

Blind is the mind that denies our hands
We're the champions of these sands
You're the victim
You've lost so give up the fight
L'appel du Vide

Blind is the mind that denies our hands
We're the champions of these sands
You're the victim
You've lost so give up the fight
L'appel du Vide

So I let my demons out, to conquer this ferocious land
But, I was conquered by them
In these sands I now dwell, until this place was all I knew

Fire of a dying sun bears upon me
Now death has come, screaming my name
The lure of the oasis, it beckons me

So I stand upon the mounds to search for any sign of life.
Glimpse, of green.

(I was) Lead by the hand,
(I was) Lead through the Ocean of Sand
Through the eyes of the dying   
Through eyes stained with crying
I see a dead world, I know my bones will be lost, forgotten in the sands

Blind is the mind that denies our hands
We're the champions of these sands
You're the victim
You've lost so give up the fight
L'appel du Vide.

Oasis waters I now dwell my daemons saved me from my Hell
And; now I rot.

A safe space I now dwell,
until this place was all I knew

Fire of a dying sun bears upon me
Now death has come, screaming my name.
The lure of the oasis; enslaved me,
I nearly drowned, in that Ocean of Sand
The tides of death pulled me down
I held out my hand, but nobody came.

And so I rot, and so I rot.

11. Celer Et Audax

For our brother:
There's a place in our hearts
Where you reside with honour
You lived as you died; a fighter

Never taking for granted; your sacrifice
Bearing the burden of martyrs

浪人 (Dor-neem)
A soldier with no purpose
Hands of war push but will deny   
Respite in the peaceful times

Create and then they deny any hope of a normal life

Because some of us,
Need a purpose to fight for.
Otherwise we fight with ourselves
Maybe it's just human nature,
To claw until the grave

Until the grave

Let his honour be in etched in stone
Forever on our lips, our minds, in our hearts.

So do not follow in the footsteps of heroes, seek what they sought

Betrayed by his own skill
He became a relic
In the peaceful times
When there were no more monsters to kill

But one survived,
It set its treacherous claws in deep,
One more battle to be won.
Never forgive them.
His hunt begins anew
His journey must be seen through
His eyes roll to the back of his head
In the darkness; lies a daemon

浪人 (Dor-neem)
A soldier with no purpose
Hands of war push but will deny   
Respite in the peaceful times

Create and then they deny any hope of a normal life,
Until the grave

Until the grave

Never forgotten.
Farewell dear warrior.
Farewell.
So fare thee well brave warrior.

12. Echoes

I remember the day my hero died
I watched as his hands obscured his face
Hiding from me for he knew, his actions lead to disgrace

So he never saw me go
I left that kingdom
Without looking back
And I swear my life is better without you

But what am I living for now?

All I ever did, was to make you proud,
But now I can't wait until you're in the fucking ground

Even worms will feast on kings
At the end of all things
So when only words remain
Over time the echoes will fade
Into sweet silence

A thousand suns would wither and die,
Before I found the words to describe;
The scum that you are.
So I'll save my time and implement the hush
Upon my furious mind

But there's a monster that controls me
Created from memories of family
As of late I've tried to conquer this
I've been caged with him for far too long,
He knows every ounce of me,
For I created him to be me,
A front for a terrified beaten child
Someone I could just be proud of

For; your memory holds power,
So to end your reign,
And to ensure you'll cease to remain,
I will, forget your name
I will, forget your name

So here I am, letting the echoes fade.

13. Already Lives

As I recall these events
From a place of clarity
I've found a beast awaits in me
An excuse, to be set free

Chains of our morality
Binds the limbs of the beast
But as my patience thins
These old chains will break
When my rage hits its threshold

Lone, I beg to be
For it is my remedy
Alone, I beg to be
For it brings me clarity

The silence satiates me
Brings sanity

Lacerations on the wrists from the chains that bind
No end in sight, for this tortured mind

To gnaw the wounds would thus release him
But his blood burns his throat like a thousand Suns

Lacerations on the wrists from the chains that bind
No end in sight, for this tortured mind

Patience thins
These old chains will break
When my rage hits its threshold
Patience thins
These old chains will break
When my rage hits its threshold

I, am one with the beast
I fear its release
And as the days go by
The balance shifts

My inner chi, is unscathed
But there's hell within me

One day rage will rule
The levee breaks,
You'll drown in sorrow
And I, will rest on the bodies of the dead

I need you to know;
Even though I walk a path of virtue
Some of you, I really want to hurt you
For; to know peace, you must know war
It's a path you've never had to walk before
To know peace, you must know war
This world is weak, it's rotten to the core

Lacerations on the wrists from the chains that bind
No end in sight for this tortured mind

Patience thins
These old chains will break
When my rage hits its threshold
Patience thins
These old chains will break
When my rage hits its threshold

Please release me
These words repeat for all eternity
Please the monotony
These days repeat for all eternity
