1.	Perceiver 03:40	lyrics	buy track
A cold tremor swept the feet of the one in black and the one with white hair. A grey wind's cold and chilling to the bone, as hard heavy rain flooded the cobble ground. Doubt was on the mind of this perceiver, whose thoughts were clouded by misconceptions. They never thought they’d meet again, yet here stands the half alive. Like a fucking bat. A wolf stood in his path, on the hidden streets of the abandoned capitol. His eyes froze and melted into the frozen lakes that have always consumed the south. He saw the blood of a King. Melting through his eyes, reflecting like lakes, that have always consumed. Doubt was on the mind of this perceiver, whose thoughts were clouded by misconceptions. Clawing at his throat. Clawing at his throat.
2.	Of Carrion Crows 03:04	lyrics	buy track
This is the part of the story where we see the first of the infernal rivers which diverge in the form of Cocytus. His Eyes are alive with the Dark Father's flame. He'll ferry me into the fire, into the fire, into the cold, into the eternal. Acheron will know my name. Limbo is waiting for me. Though I feel an ounce of fear, I will mask it with love for the woman I love to Carry on. Or become carrion. I will turn you into a nest of bats to show you how I feed, I will attempt to requisition the divine, and pull you down with me. Hope leaves. Fuck. Lightning cracked and broke my teeth and all my fears go. Crawl maggot crawl. Werg.
3.	I Went To The Beach With A Gun 04:55	lyrics	buy track
Around the sleeping and dying upon the hard packed earth. The smoke and screams were more than he could bare. Bending his head he stepped out into the afternoon, sick of this mocking reality. I'll call you out for redemption, my wife lies dead, raped and fucked. I know where I'll send you. A dozen fire pits are sending up thick fingers of blue-grey smoke. I can hear the distant echoes of your daughter, where it'll be dark and cold. Your poor daughter will be sent to the reefs, into the sea, Into the deep. Into the deep. Slit straight from the throat to the cunt. Cut right from the hole to the chin. Deck the halls in red, blood will run into the ocean, an offering. Trapped in a limbo of unmatched horror, I have disposed of you. Your precious daughter will be sent to the reefs, into the sea, Into the deep, into the deep. I went to the beach with a gun.
4.	When All Other Lights Go Out 08:06	lyrics	buy track
Frossgar. Kki. His father cast down. A crown ripped from his head. Frossgar. Kki. Rain. Rain. The Old Kingdom fell under the weight of dark wings. When all other lights go out. I can feel her spectre, it breathes. Crashing through my senses I beg. Oh, I've found this in me, to be lost in the seven stars of her eye. I remember her advice, sometimes good things fall on me, Even the rain. I can see my reflection in all things. And through the drops echoes a message, pleading and begging for courage. Anuriel. Anuriel. Anuriel. When all other lights go out I can feel her spectre it breathes, Crashing through my senses, I beg. I'm finally awake, I'm finally alive, I'll never be released from her eyes. I'm finally awake, I'm finally alive, I'll never be released from her eyes. Her message spreads like poetry, Piercing every element of my souls composure, and leading me forward. I'll never be released from her eyes.
