Ex Nihilo
04:13
|
|||
|
Amid embers of motionless black
You are infinite light
Of nothing you were born
Of all you have become
Heartbeats echo warm
Unbound from the crushing embrace
Omnidirectional bliss
Unbound from the crushing embrace
Out of nothing, you are all things
Ex nihilo, you are born

Bloom
03:20
|
|||
|
Existence so defiant
Failure to fathom
Fathom you flourish
Defeats my purpose
May you forever be in bloom
Burdened by crippling force
Yet your radiance grows
Fathom you flourish
Defeats my purpose
May you forever be in bloom

You are the first star
An infinite sum of lost shards
Thaw the frozen clutch of fate
Your potential’s unrestrained
A beacon of hope
In a chasm of abandoned dreams
Descend and radiate light
Depart and emanate life
Tattered are their ancient hands
Their frail grasp binds you no more

Spontaneous cognition
With origins in scattered dust
A laminar flow of consciousness
Trickling down unto our thoughts
We're aware of who we are
We’ve observed what you are
Radiate, accelerate
Weave into focus
The terminal, borne of void
We're aware of who we are
We’ve observed what you are

Inertia
04:58
|
|||
|
Though the fable’s pieced together
Its agents diffuse to oblivion
Their inertia knows no bounds
Dooming each other to desolation
Unstoppable is their momentum
Unfazed is their direction
Their inertia knows no bounds
Dooming each other to desolation
Though the fable’s pieced together
Its agents diffuse to oblivion

Aether
05:23
|
|||
|
Severed tethers and momentum unbound
Left only is the aether of time
Distant glimmers of life elapsed
I cast my remaining life into the recess of consciousness
I cast my remaining life into the pits of black
The beacon goes unanswered
Gathered hope to bridge the gap
The beacon goes unanswered
The heartbeat goes flat
So let it be lost in the black
I cast my remaining life into the pits of black
I cast my remaining life into the recess of consciousness
Confine, remain

Nadir
05:11
|
|||
|
Wallowing in the nadir of abyss
We can only descend so far
Kindling is a distant memory
We seek atonement for what we are
Reborn among soot and flame
We are the last of our kind
We are mindless dust scattered throughout
Stretching to naught
We can’t descend
Stretching to naught
Reborn among the flame
We are the last of our kind

Heaviside
02:13

Silent murmurs, voiceless remains
Time now rests, I am naught
Of nothing I am born
Of nothing I have become

Laplaced
04:31
|
|||
|
Now begins our return
An heir to the desolate
Infinite emptiness
Abyssal chasm shifts
Charred bodies awaken
Slowly mend what remains
Among embers, black
Slowly mended what remains
Among embers of motionless black
I follow blindly behind
I fall beneath my kin

Synthesis
03:06
|

|
Form
The ebb and flow
Life
A consciousness wavers thin
From the echo from the deep
One being takes hold
We but now observe
Synthesis
Formless, unnamed
The restless energy
Contorting, unchained
The timing of the first and last
Parity between the first and last
We are enslaved by the condition
Rippling indiscriminate obedience
Formless, unnamed
Regress, reverse
Form
Ebb and flow
Life
Consciousness wavers thin
The first and last

Dirac

|

|
Fallen from the abyssal tear
Dimension born of despair
Conjuring
Resonate energy
Lapsing infinity
Tear through the never ending light
It is the motion of
It is the echo of the ever-beating heart
It is the motion of the ever-beating heart
It is the echo of the ever-beating pulse
The effluence of consciousness flows forth in laminae
In droves, tumult and undulation, be without your boundary
What do you see here
What do you feel here
The ever-being
The ever-beating pulse

Manifold Motion
05:48
|
|||
|
Turbulent heaves of storm
My voice casts to the depths
Brethren amass and rise
Echoing my call with shallow breaths
My body and mind twirl
My limbs contort and twist
Ashes awaken and rise
Glowing slag from the abyss
I reverberate
With omnidirectional bliss
Siblings gather
And join my dance
I reverberate
Omnidirectional manifold motion
Gather and join in my dance
We move in unison, harmony, manifold
We are the resonance
I reverberate manifold motion

Curl
04:08
|

|
You are confined now
You are safe
Collapse, coalesce
Wretch and curl in my caress
Collapse, coalesce
Return
Collapse, coalesce
Regress
The heartbeat goes flat
The essence, transferred
Entangled, reformed
Grown to forget
The heartbeat goes flat
The essence, transferred
Entangled, reformed
Wretch and curl
You are confined now
You are safe
Collapse, coalesce
Wretch and curl in my caress

Eigen
05:35
|

|
I return
Harboring life
Carried by the turbulence preceding
Solace in the amity that follows
My reclamation
My innervation
Brought me to this place
I hold still
In the calmness of certainty
Staring at my own reflection
For all I am
For all I shall be
For all I am
For all I shall be
