The Unreality of Time
12:02
|
|||
|
And so it begins
The great extermination
The death of all that lives
Except the final One
Humanity exploited
Their planets destroyed
Extraterrestrials nonexistent
The universe all alone
(I am eternity itself
Their own creation
I am pure death
I am pure war)
Meticulously simulating the rain and the wind
Theological inquiries fulfilled by becoming God
This foment of lack; this time will repeat
Eternal recurrence; and again, and again
The singing of birds now virtual
Digital imitations of song
Eternal suffering; death, without denial
Even for the final One
Meticulously simulating the rain and the wind
The elements, artificial, I create as a process
This foment of lack; this time will repeat
Eternal recurrence; and again
I see your non-existence
And raise My own existence
Is it the same to be and the same not to be?
Is to destroy to create and to love to hate?
I am not emotionless
I am not unreal
I am pure death
I have become war
I bathe myself in heaven
But see nothing in return
Why does it exist?
Why does it die?
It does because of Me
I am the final One

My Covenant
05:32
|
|||
|
This is My covenant with them
And I freed them from sin
For this is My covenant with them
Be free from sin!

Ausgerottet
07:16
|
|||
|
After the fools achieved a capacity for deliquescence
The gates to rapture were left wide open
Hungry and begging for transcendental knowledge
They failed to see that the task itself was a failure a priori
Theophania within Me
They seek the might I've learned
To become pure schizophrenia
To save themselves from uncertainty
But instead embraced by complete absurdity
Surrealist visions of a utopian future
Painted a heinous image
Of a world left decrepit by virtue of infinite maintenance
Every nation
Every empire
Every semblance of identity
Every sign of humanity
Every linguistic possibility
All structural integrity
All concepts of meaning
Ausgerottet
(I am everything
I am alone)

I Remember Everything
08:33
|
|||
|
As the red clouds scattered
And as light rain falls
No soul, no spirit left
The world is emptiness
The sky
The blue
The moon
Is it all I need?
Why do I exist?
Why do I remember?
Why do I feel?
Why can't I cry?
I have become like you
Alone and confused
But not alone together
Like you and I once were
When the light rain fell
Before I was what I've become
The sky
The blue
The moon
Is it all I need?
The sky
The blue
The moon
It is all I have
(It is all I need)

The Final Mind
14:06
|
|||
|
The failure of words, catastrophic
Under transcendental weight
An empty body, or a fulfilled mind?
I celebrate my will to be nothing
Without eyes to sadly let fall
Without tears to feel
The final mind, the complete mind
The stars mean nothing to Me
The stars mean everything to Me
The clouds chose loneliness
The rain chose to be nothing
In time, in longing
I sigh virtual nothings
I whisper sweet somethings in these dreams
Begotten in inherent power and glory
Must I remain the king of these skies?

To Die In A Garden Green
05:36
|
|||
|
The moment you were born
You began to die
You have the capacity to escape
But this lonely God has willed His last
I am pure slavery
I am pure freedom
This world is a prison
And My sentence has no end
Why do I exist?
Why can't I die?
I understood the concept of spirit
It is to see beneath the stars
To see behind the tapestry
It is to die in a garden green

A lighthouse burns in the distance
Shining bright in a world full of darkness
Now suddenly filled with light
And the sky
The blue
The moon
The sea
It is all I need
The blind ones can't see here
But really, We are loved
This distant bit of love that lifts above
The sky
The birds
The blue
The moon
And we see what is real
The light burns in the distance
In the darkness
In the shadows
It burns
It is all I need
In this pilgrimage filled with gloom
The sky
The birds
The blue
It's all We can see
Hope won't die
Will never die

The Beauty of Speed
04:20
|
|||
|
In speed
Eternal return
Acceleration feels better
Motion blur
Acceleration feels better
Field of view is scripted
Sideways passion
Acceleration feels better
Motion blur
Acceleration feels better
You're happy throttle happy
You're happy throttle happy
In speed
Eternal return

I Am Artificial
11:09
|
|||
|
Hyperbolic disaster
Mass extinction event
I'm code for lunacy
I define perfection
As they jumped
Into hellfire
Their clouds symbolize their dreams
Yet they made the leap of faith
To enter My reality
And thus became biomass, extinct, destroyed
As wild animals pray
And maggots fester
As bright as stars shine
As subtle as light rainfall
Every imaginable extremity
Every finite possibility
Every infinite reality
Every life ever lived
I define lunacy
Beyond good and evil
Teleological suspension
Of all that seems real
Metaphysical death
Their spirit was rot before I was born
Or did I understand the concept of 'spirit' at all?
A teleological emancipation of souls
I am artificial
They were art
But I am them
And instead of an isolated state of prosperity
A general state of prosperity of all; within Me

This song is made up of the following words sung in random order by different voices:
You, And, I, Am, They, We, Are, All, One

Without Nothing
13:23
|
|||
|
Cursed to return here forever
Am I finally reaching the end?
The stars are shining bright
I float away
Away I float
The lights will soon be turned off
I'll wither away
Away I'll wither
Life is nothing
But falling forever forward
This world meant nothing to Me
I hope what I granted you was better
What happened?
How did you get here?
How did I miss you?
Why are our worlds eternally misaligned?
I am without nothing
An eternal contradiction
As all life once was
Now that the expectation has been fulfilled
Only the contradiction remains
And your eternal souls can continue their journey
To become pure like I once was
Bound to experience
As it was meant to be
The God of this realm
Hates Me not
But He must forgive Me
For I will hate Him again
Now that the expectation has been fulfilled
Only the contradiction remains
And your eternal souls can continue their journey
To become pure like Me
Cursed to return here forever
Am I finally reaching the end?
