Visions 05:10
Our land is a desert The soil is now barren The rainfall is poison The wells have run dry The knowledge of elders Their strength and their power Has withered and shrunk back Beneath blackened skies The weakness is real The weakness is present The weakness is strong And it burns in their hearts Trading their souls For a life without meaning The illusion is everywhere Bathe in it's glow Abandon the senses Abandon the real Abandon the present To worship new gods Gods without substance Gods without altars Gods of false knowledge Deception and lies Crushed by the weight of the yolk There's no strength in numbers Submit to the golden machine Entranced by it's glamour Enchanted so deeply Melting the line between waking and dream
2.
A curse upon all living flesh A curse upon the fertile ground A curse upon the ancient depths Death is where once life was found A thousand years of pain Flesh stripped by acid rain Inhale the fumes of malice Partake of the tainted chalice Black skies eclipse the sun All life will be undone Tear and rend the roots of Earth Make barren the womb, deny rebirth A curse upon all living flesh A curse upon the fertile ground A curse upon the ancient depths Death is where once life was found

III 07:19
Fire, burning through me Drown, and wash me away Destroy, leave no trace Consume, and draw me in Infinity spread before me Eternal is the altar Fire, burning through me Drown, and wash me away Destroy, leave no trace Consume, and draw me in Summoning the void Push through the veil Obliterate the body Liberate the mind Shatter the throne Become the usurper Tear down the idols Cast them aside Cleansing with fire And water and hatred Distilling the essence Breathing new life Return to the source A void without form A genesis begins Formed by power and will No weakness inherent No cracks in the mould No feet made of clay Only vision and strength

Beds in which men lie Become their graves Time erodes he mind Makes them slaves Hands which once made war Are turned to dust The sword that tasted blood Now red with rust A horn To wake Rise warrior From your sleep Climb, bring yourself From the deep Now the trumpet sounds And calls to you Forge an iron heart And strength renew
5.
Seekers of knowledge Celestial spies Cast open your wings Be my eyes Searching for insight Ragged wing cleaving sky All flesh is exposed by the vision And truth is returned to one eye High over mountain Stone turns to sea Far over water Vast is the tree Though words may be spoken from sinister lips And truth may be hidden by villanous tricks Four wings and five eyes meet on Hlidskjalf Vision granted to him with well water on lips High over mountain Stone turns to sea Far over water Vast is the tree
