Mutual destruction assured Endless war with no victor Agony for no cause Take us to the end of times Thirst for power Quenched by termination of life As we burn As we freeze As we burn Fanatical worship of an unseeing god Issues forth no justice Opiate of the masses Great drug in our veins Begging for the oil To set our pyre aflame As we burn As we freeze As we burn As we freeze Burn the gods Kill the masters Burn the gods Kill the masters The miserable machine's perverted purpose to feed It's sustenance the suffering of humanity You call us abomination we shall be Abomination we shall be Burn the gods Kill the masters Burn Kill Prison house of comforts no longer sustains Fragile walls of victimhood no longer bear weight Suffering in silence With ice in our fucking veins In our motherfucking veins
4.	Awakening (The Pyre Aflame pt III 03:34	lyrics	buy track
The drug of control The antidote to humanity A formulation meant To cleanse the spirit away The drug of control To cleanse the spirit away Take a deep Breath 'Ere the cost is too great Feel the air in your lungs 'Ere it's a commodity Feel the earth underfoot While you don't have to pay Keep the spirit awake Keep the spirit awake

6.	Hypothermic Amputation 04:24	lyrics	buy track
Awakened to taste of cold iron and bile Blurred visions persist Throat torn, shredded veins, warm flesh defiled Frozen in mockery of this once beating life Synapses firing, blinding pain, undead brain stem ignites Awaken to weight of steel prosthetic limbs No pulse in my chest For the dead there's no rest How long since the corpse drew forth its last breath? This rotten carcass denied tranquil slumber of pain Nerves squirm Twitch as flesh Remembers it's form Ancient memories A vague recollection Of parts once cherished Now only an urge Saw through bone Saw through the bone Saw through bone The urge remains Memories fully formed See the blade fully honed Sharpening stone grinds the edge Shimmering ridge of cold steel Slice through the flesh Saw through bone Saw through the bone Saw through bone The urge remains The urge remains The surgeons scalpels slice Spellbound entranced As graceful fingers Separate flesh from the husk Tender bruising encased in steel With my own hands This is my life's work It's myself that I've enhanced Body framework modified Organ tissue dead inside Useless morals cast aside Brain functions amplified Genitalia removed Divine mutilation Hypothermic amputation

8.	Refuge in a Tomb 04:38	lyrics	buy track
Cruel are the times When we live as traitors Who know not ourselves Nor what we fear Lost upon a wild and violent sea Here at the end of all things Ragged hearts bereft of fortitude Dragged to exhaustion Relentlessly grinding To the pace of the machine Left with naught but scorn for humanity Refuge in a tomb Warm comfort of defeat Softening the walls of your mind A lullabye for the walking paralyzed Paralyze Plunge the knife in deeper I swear I can take it Add another scar to the collection Of the sleeping reaper Sugar to the lips of the starving A false promise No sustained devotion to fervor Leave the wounds to fester Bathe in pain And forget to exist Refuge in a tomb Warm comfort of defeat Softening the walls of your mind Lullabye for the walking paralyzed Plunge the knife in deeper Plunge the knife in deeper I swear I can take it Cruel are the times When we live as traitors Who know not ourselves Nor what we fear Lost upon a wild and violent sea Here at the end of all things

10.	Coronal Mass Ejection 05:48	lyrics	buy track
A new age borne of darkness Suffering we ache for the light Advanced millennia of the cruelest species Tears drop in the ocean of time Withered human hearts in a herd of slime Magnetic reconnection Coronal mass ejection Explosive acceleration Anti human life equation Freshly sprung dark age upon us Technocratic overlords Overreaching for a lifeline Long since squandered Spin and gurgle down the drain Spineless ghouls unworthy of a name Bilge rats scurrying To their pits Whole lives spent hoarding For no reward Nothing but a grave For a fucking coward Corona stress and realign Belch of plasma Destructive force of an angered sun Death imbued No where to hide When the shockwave and earth collide Auroras bind the earth Tendrilled fingers groping Splitting skin smoking flesh Hubris of an unworthy populace A loving end For all who tread in shadow A loving end For all who suffer loss of Earth's embrace Nothing but a grave For a fucking coward
