BYZANTINE LYRICS

1. Absolute Horizon


Driven to the thorn
Unaware of the dying to come
Extinction opens her eyes
An event is on the horizon
Thank God it's time

We are bound to this earth only by the pull of the tides
For we are creatures of intelligent design

A bleak situation just got bleaker
Our ties with the maker get weaker and weaker
The absolution of what will befall you
The light at the end of the tunnel will smite you

Christ bait rising
Agnostic death
Annunaki
What do you believe to be true?

[Solo Tony]

Seas rise as trembling tears multiply, the end is nigh
Count your rosary for seasons blur their ceremony
Your beliefs are finally put to the test, how insignificant
Praise Allah, the patron saint of Armageddon

A bleak situation just got bleaker
Out ties with the maker get weaker and weaker
The absolution of what will befall us
The light at the end of the tunnel denies us


2. Nadir


As I bore for the depths of depravity
A bottomless pit I have found
As I search for the signs of humanity
There will be no ashes abound

Will you burn me alive?
Turn my organs to ash
Await my salvation
As bones break like glass

If I empty my guts on the table
Will you sift through and find what you need?
Will you write out the truth with eloquence?
Or smear out a liars decree

Will you burn me alive?
Turn my organs to ash
Await my salvation
As bones break like glass

No cross no thorns
No kings without pawns
No pain no crown
My skin fills with rain
I stare in the eye of the storm

[Solo Tony]

No cross no thorns
No kings without pawns
No pain no crown
My skin fills with rain
I stare in the eye of the storm


3. Oblivion Beckons


Idle hands are the devils playground
So let us inaugurate this disease
Set the blood agar to sow our greed
Don't underestimate my strength
Just to undermine my needs
Let the weeding out process
Begin with dastardly deeds

We want to live in another world
Where our hopes can just drain away
Overlooked and tossed away
We want to live in another world
No matter the cost we try
Not to live in a serene world
In God we lie

Trapped in a den of inequities
Forcing shots of insanity
It's time we find out who is the weakest species
A holy war for us all to see
Crucified on my TV screen
The final chapter in the book of man
Entitled, "Time to Die For Me: A Eulogy"

We want to live in another world
Where our hopes can just drain away
Unattended and left to fade
We want to live in another world
No matter the cost
We try not to live in a serene world
In God we die

[Solo Tony]


4. The Gift of Discernment


I'm drowning in darkness
Someone, shine a light on me.
Fixated on the outcome of all
Death whispers denouement
The end is clear to me
Coping with sorrow I splinter the last straw

It's been a long sad day
And this will only make it worse
As devils whisper angels pray
This gift will only be a curse

So this must be my hell but I can not discern
I set sail for Charon my soul the river Styx will burn

It's been a long sad day
And this will only make it worse
As devils whisper angels pray
This gift will only be a curse

Fire in the hole and glory be to God
Disregard the soul beneath a foot a sod
Oh, God.
Bane of my existence and crux of my dismay
Soul backed into a gaping hole day by day
By day, by day, by day, by day
I'm washed in the misery bathing the soma
I pray for your mercy to vanquish this coma


5. Expansion & Collapse


Waves of calm they washed me clean
Detached, removed from the spine
Possessed with a feeling of death
A compulsion to silence the goodness

Everyone dies but not everyone lives
The plague modern times instilled
This revelation cured me of this sickness of the mind

Wronged in our chance to comprehend immortality
Power beyond the amorphous stature breathing lies
Inside the ties that bind

Waves of doubt wash over me
Skepticism oscillates in the mind
Relief from the pagan beliefs
That are contrary to the submissive

Faith and doubt constantly collide
Joined together on immeasurable planes
More courage does it take to suffer than to die

Power beyond the amorphous stature breathing lies
Inside the ties that bind

Recalculate infinity
Expand just to collapse on me

[Solo Tony]

A glimpse of moving light
That you must bring to focus
Grows in proportion to
The pressure on the eyes


6. Catalyst


It's the beginning of a beautiful end
I drown again just to taste the sand
Praying to pinholes of light above
The unholy that we don't speak of

A sobering fact that my life has never meant a thing
A memory of perpetual lies
Can you see this pitiful life now on display?
An evolution of my suicide

We cast out liars
We cast out liars

These demons are mine, residing inside
Carving out the inner skull
Making ample room for more
They subdivide, evil comes in legions

A sobering fact that my life has never meant a thing
Whom the gods love shall die young
Antagonist, longing for the agony to persist
My scars shall ripen in the sun

[Solo Tony]

We cast out liars
We cast out liars
Isolated by fire
We cast out liars


7. Pattern Recognition


Hunger for what's not there, eyeless congregation
Blessed be unto for their hearts are true
Submitting to the stimuli, a pure psychic secretion
For their souls are empty
Bleeding out the will of humanity

Can you hear the tolling of the bell?
The masses salivate

Neurons fire with desire to quench intangible needs
Supplant the seed, learn the machine
When two entities commonly occur close together
The appearance of one shall forever bring to mind the other

Can you hear the tolling of the bell?
Infecting the insane

"Don't become a mere recorder of facts, but try to penetrate the mystery of their origin.
Perfect as the wing of a bird might be, it will never enable the bird to fly if unsupported by the air.
Facts are the heir of science.
Without them a man of science can never rise"
[Ivan Pavlov]

[Solo Tony]

Pinpoint your soul
I'll swallow it
What will be left behind
Nothing but a body cold

Pinpoint your fears
I'll wallow in them
What is now left behind
Noting but a body cold

Can you hear the tolling of the bell?
The masses salivate
Can you hear the tolling of the bell?
Infecting the insane


8. Renovatio


[instrumental]


9. Centurion


To hold a pen is to be at war
A calculated science of destruction
Consensual disarmament, dismembered
A campaign for the Armageddon
Bombs to Baghdad, Bayji, and Fallujah
Consensual dismemberment, disarmed

A call to arms in the key of rapture echoing through time
Young men coal hardened faces testing their resolve
They were taught discipline to see the battle through
From deep mines to the front lines
Centurions must sacrifice their lives

The dogs of war are pining for the corpses
Of soldiers marching ever forward
Consensual disarmament, dismembered
Dues will be paid and graves will be dug
For your sons and your daughters
My cousin now martyred
Consensual dismemberment, disarmed

A call to arms in the key of rapture echoing through time
Young men coal hardened faces testing their resolve
They were taught discipline to see the battle through
From deep mines to the front lines
Centurions must sacrifice their lives

[Solos OJ, Tony]

I'll crawl through the rubble
And scream to the heavens
Our mantra until we die
Montani Semper Liberi
Montani Semper Fi


10. Receiving End of Murder


I got the news today I've lost faith somewhere along the line
No chance for me to retrace innocence now washed away
An affair I forever reject, a puppeteer I soon will not forget
My hell is empty, the devil is here pulling my strings

Slithering silently
We suffer a snakes disease
Slithering silently
Smother out integrity

I'm searching for the moral hooks on which to hang my trust
No chance for me to retrace my good intentions drowned by lust
The levee deepens as the earthen dam begins to weaken
Surface a martyr today, a floating body tomorrow

Slithering silently
We suffer a snakes disease
Slithering silently
Smother out integrity

[Solo Tony]

I use this prosthesis one fucking last time
Then rip it away take back what's rightfully mine
We use this prosthesis one fucking last time
Than rip it away take back what's rightfully ours

Parasitic, lecherous
Maggots press their weight down upon you
Malignant, so cancerous
Stifling all you hold dear

You pierced the side and drank the wine and left me here to die
I long to lay my suffering down at the feet of my enemy
We bear the scars of the suppressed, revenge is for suppressors
I breathe in deeper today for your grip now loosened on my throat

Slithering silently
We suffer a snakes disease
Slithering silently
Smother out integrity no more


11. All Hail The End Times


Hail the end time agenda
Bail the black art agenda

He who's down need fear no fall
He who lies for you will lie against you

Hail the end time agenda
Hail the black art agenda

It's a long road out of hell
When you refuse to do the devils work
Believe me when I say all is not well
And if I have time to kill, I'll be back for you

He who's down need fear no fall
He who lies for you will lie against you

It's a long road out of hell
When you refuse to do the devils work
Believe me when I say all is not well
And if I have time to kill, I'll be back for you

Tell me your gospel and pen it in blood
For there is no blacker ink to come clean with
Excuse me while rapid genuflections
I perform until perfection

By the grace of out God
We denounce diocese
Branded by this disease
Their communion is cheapened
Defiled without a kiss
Fueling hell by degrees


12. Deep End of Nothing


Listen closely to the sound of treachery
Look deeply into the eyes of lechery
All fall to knees being to worship me
The brazen son of man I shine of pure idolatry

The trouble with your prayers
Are that they reek of last resorts
I waste not tears on hollow grief
In a city without dogs the wolves become the overseers
It takes a thief to catch a thief

Pain lays not its touch upon the children born of shame
Your faith awaits to be unearthed
Release the blackened dove for there was never light above
panning for echoes never birthed

Life, liberty, and the pursuit of ignorance

[Solos OJ, Skip, Wolfe, Tony]

I shall feel nothing no compassion exorcised form me
My mortal coil laid aside no emotions ever to bequeath


13. A Residual Haunting


Crank the ratchet slowly to measure our inequities
Each bone that breaks reveal a new point of stress to me
A catalyst of suicide, a wound to be dressed
Quiet on the set, your death has taken its turn to be in progress

[Solo Tony]

Squeeze the hammer slowly to bury our honesty
A song for dying swans reveals a path for me
A catalyst of suicide, a wound to infect
Our death will be appreciated, swollen tongue forever

Laced with vitriol
Choking on the residue we leave

It's time to roll the bones
Your end I must advise
With confidence I sin
False grieving now begins
Belittles your demise
In minutes just a memory of faded apparitions

[spoken:]
These are the final words that will be penned from me
As empires rise, they do just fall
And history shall forever repeat
So now I dig deep into my black beating heart
And with open arms welcome you to oblivion...
