KRONOS
The cosmos glistens in my eyes,
I see beyond.
I look inside,
Every corner of my mind.
Searching for you,
To let go
of this beastly burden,
Become realigned
And let the passion re-ignite.
You never know when
Our time will end
When life will transcend.
When you're in the flow
Embrace reality before your grip let's go.
And I know I
Cling to your gravity,
Cause I can't let you go.
I get the sense I'm not alone.
Abandon logic and reason,
To free my soul.
The more you learn
The less you know.
Now I descern and despise
Every truth,
Every lie.
As I watch the fabric of reality unreveal.
Wide awake every night,
Thoughts that travel at the speed of light,
Overflowing insanity.
I have to close my eyes to see.
For when the visions start to go
And feelings are fleeting
Where only death can grow.
Destroyer,
Creator.
Concealed in eternity.
Our tragedies decay.
We're fighting Inner demons
That fear our comfort to the end.
I get the sense I'm not alone.
Abandon logic and reason
To free my soul.
The more you learn
The less you know.
Cross the impossible plane,
Find the mystics who dwell there.
Ever deceiving,
Forever dreaming of this world.
Waiting to be reconciled.
Where the rains
(Where the rains)
Defy
(Defy)
Gravity.
Lost in the chronicle of ages,
They wisper insanity.
Lifeless but breathing,
Searching for meaning in this world.
Existing within our minds.
Behold the cost of creation.
No order and chaos reigns.
A mythical world
Prophesys
Tells the end of Time.
No order and chaos reigns.
Our tragedies decay.
We're fighting Inner demons
That fear our comfort to the end,
But truth be told,
I get the sense I'm not alone.
Abandon logic and reason
To free my soul.
The more you learn
The less you know.

THE MORAI
As I slip into despair
Falling.
Cast through the veil of mystery.
Flying through a world without fate,
Orchestrated and betrayed by Gods
Descendants of
The Primordial ones
Creators of destiny,
From the shadows they weave
The Morai
Spin their web eternally
I hear their voice
I feel my mortality,
But their words stay hidden from me.
Was I chosen for nothing?
I cannot escape this
Void
As I waste the days away,
And fall into silence.
Break through
The walls within so that I can breathe.
Night and day
Granddaughters of Titans
The Weavers disinvolved
As mankind search for meaning
Within their woe.
The ground gives way and swallows me
Descendants of
The Primordial ones,
Creators of destiny.
In the dark of night,
I hear the terrified,
Within their cries
I hear words that were once hidden from me.
I am the voice you heard
Unbound origin of darkness
Creator
Destroyer
Your fate's woven in the fabric
And when the body burns
And all's left
Are embers and ashes
Reignite
Your purpose, your life
Reignite
Sever the thread,
Create your own.
So mesmerized
By demised egos
Within the embers I will grow.
The futures free
The past is set in stone.
As I sever the ties
Create my own.
Within the embers I will grow.
Crushing the woven fates internally
I hear their voice, I feel my mortality
Are your words still hidden from me?
Was I chosen for nothing?
I cannot escape this
Void
As I waste the days away
And fall into silence.
And when the body burns
And all that's left are embers
And ashes reignite
Your purpose and your life.

MAJA VALLES
Infinite frozen endless night.
Deserted paradise
(Sailing)
Through the spiralling void
(Chaos)
Is the force in which we propel,
Unconsciously.
Chasing life through the darkness till you realise.
You're out of your depth,
A parasite.
Terraforming that which has been stained with blood.
We stare at the stars
As they speak to me.
The beast inside dreaming of the day he'll be set free.
To the place where I belong.
(Until I cease)
Running from
The sun that never shone.
The unknown
Empty vessel
Unexplored.
Signs of extinct life read between the lines.
Bruised and beaten
Maja Valles.
(Fated)
To never see what's right in front of me
(Faded)
Unfathomably.
A wretched light bleeds from my heart
Lacking will and determination.
(Hatred)
I lose control,
I'm getting lost,
I'm getting
(Spacey)
Self inducing apathy.
An endless fight set to dethrone
The malevolent force in me.
So set me free.
To the place where I belong.
Until I cease,
Running from
The sun that never shone
The god of war
An epiphany
Through the past you are reborn.
Uncovering the sights
Of a world once alive now war torn.
Our world be warned.
The scorched earth
(A vision of the end)
In my burning dreams,
Surrendering what life remains in me
I will be mourned.
(As madness descends)
The final catastrophe in view.
As time between us takes its toll.
And our never ending night takes us home.
Finding forever in memories
With you.
(With you)
With you.
Is where I belong.
I finally cease
Running from
The sun that never shone.
(So set me free)
To the place where I belong.
Until I cease,
Running from
The sun that never shone

TARTARUS
Glow
Under the light of the evening star.
Working away at the wisdom of who you truly are.
Intrepidly believing without a hope
When you're looking at life
Through the lens of a horrorscope.
And from the depths
Of death we rise.
An empty promise of freedom leaves us
Sleepwalking.
Enforcing addiction to life.
And I'll break all the habits
Surrounding
The faith of human kind.
Contorting the mind,
Turn the glass and you will see,
The cycle of destruction,
A never ending destiny.
Yeah
Working away at the wisdom of who you truly are.
And as you wait up for the morning sun
And curse the way you're wondering where all the days have gone.
To drift out of thought and time alluring Chaos
Into
Existence.
I exist now distorting your dreams
Exploring your torments
As I hear the night sing to me.
Taint the atmosphere
As you rot, as you dewll.
With Tartarus revealing your fate,
Welcome to hell.
Feel their grip getting tighter and tighter,
Feel their fingers their piercing.
Tearing through skin,
Scream as your soul
Let's go
Searching for light in the sorrow within.
Immursed in your ire
Sinking deeper through this,
Cascading kiss
Of Misery's mistress.
Unrevered
Desolation
Nowhere to hide
Nowhere to run.
Finding peace
Before I'm undone.
Ethereal bliss
As I dream
Empyrean.
Rage
Subsides
Moments of clarity begin to shine.
Cease the madness.
Breathe the light.
Open up the wings of the soul
If only to
Cease the madness.
Breathe the light.
Open up the wings of the soul,
If only to fly.
Sever this place
Cut the ties
Cut the baleful beings
The serpants under guise.
Neverending
Scars
Penetrate the void.
Fears are on fire
Unfrightened by desires reach
A shadow washes over me,
Once again now I can breathe.
From the depths of death I rise one more time
Soaking the feelings up before
I descend.
Into the madness of my mind
From the depths
I rise.
Unrevered
Desolation
Nowhere to hide
Nowhere to run.
Finding peace
Before I'm undone.
Ethereal bliss
As I dream
Empyrean.
