Enlightenment
02:44
|
|||
Traveling through space and time
Material form no longer mine
Testing what was set in stone
Learning what was never known
Behind the stars is a fractured reflection
A broken mirror image of my inner savior
I hold out my hand with a smile
Pulling myself into the abyss
All is clear in the pitch black
Everything I know is wrong
Searching for what can’t be found
The question of life has no answer
Parallel with my conscience
Life complete with no substance
Existence precedes essence
Afterlife based on science

Cenozic Anoxia
02:14
|
|||
Lapses in oceanic circulation
Global conveyer belt ceases to function
Oxygen depleted in cataclysmic fashion
Heavy erosion, volcanic outgassing
Ozone depletion leads to mass extinction
Obstruction, deprivation, stagnation
Ultraviolet radiation, atmospheric penetration
Consequential suffocation from deoxygenation
Comprehensive homosapien fossilization

Backlit
04:34
|
|||
Dragging my feet uphill into a furnace
Crooked trees and amber skies
I see the end but I do not want to arrive
Serpent limbs and crumbling stone
Constricting thoughts of loyal drones
Skies of blood and roots of bone
Darkness cast before me
The last remaining rays
Virescent clouds of acid rain
Soil soaked with toxic waste
Following my elongated shadow
Each step forward skewing my self image
Bending and twisting across the gravel
Backlit by an expiring sun
Evaporating sweat from my leathered skin
Ashen silhouettes adorn the horizon
Gnarled landscape of coagulated crimson
Refracting light toys with my imagination
A paradise of dead leaves and boiling rivers
Reaching up towards a contorted cathedral
Backlit by an expiring sun
Darkness cast before me
Virescent clouds of acid rain
Stripping my clothes away
Ashes
Reaching up towards a contorted cathedral
Only to fall for infinity into flame

Nuclear Winter
03:30
|
|||
Impurity: incomplete combustion
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
Mutagens: known human carcinogens
Dreaded combination of fusion and fission
Aerosol: airborne contaminants
Stratosphere blackened by carbon agglomerates
Explosion: plutonium implosion
Final fissioning of depleted uranium
Fallout: radioactive dust
No shelter secure from the noxious mist
Winter: lack of sunlight
Oxygen lost in the infinite night

Particulate Matter
04:44
|
|||
Inhaling emissions from exhaling engines
Particle agglomerates, blocked ventilation
Hazardous respiratory discoloration
Particulate matter breeds a black apparition
Synthetic possession without differentiation
Whether worm or a woman it makes no distinction
Super-un-natural ghostly visitation
Haunting our cities and causing deforestation
Proof that fact is more frightening than fiction
A generation born with sterilizing deformations
De-evolution of the entire ecosystem
In Vitro conception fails as our final option
Impossibility of procreation
Negligence delivers a slow suffocation
Global elimination caused by so-called-progression
|

Dandelions in Spring
03:21
|
|||
The retrovirus mutates
Into an airborne pandemic
Cytopathic effects on the host's cellular structure
Extensive irreparable damage
Immunity is an impossibility
Virulence
Metaphorical Luftwaffe takes to the skies
Nature's genocide
The damage done to man
Will never match what man has done
Quarantine failing
Breath it in
The aftermath
Heaps of human carnage
Corpses litter the landscape like weeds
Dandelions in spring

Ecophagy
01:06
|
|||
Nanorobotics engineered as a cure
Mutation of machine matter beyond mature
Self-replicating sub-molecular spiders
Liquified, flesh and bone quickly divided
A single human subject spills out of control
Engine of creation accidentally gone rogue
Exponential reproduction, everything is swallowed
The cure becomes the catalyst for global demise
Mother earth turns grey in the blink of an eye

Extremophile

|
|||
Orbiting a Red Dwarf Star
20 light years in the Extrasolar
Surveillance of Earth from Afar
Unlike anything Man has seen before
Descending once and for all
Superior even to the Gods
Devoid of all pigment
Engulfed in an aura of flame
Eyes like dying planets
Observed from eons away
Absence of all emotion
As it stares into space
Eliminate and recreate
Exoplanetary Puppeteer
Cuts the strings and we disappear
