Beast

|

|
๐๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐จ:
the smell of burned flesh
mutilated skin
a womanโs severed head
dismembered limbs
as trophies on display
a body raped and killed
consumed by dark thoughts the entity grows
as darkness spreads you lose control
the beast within us craving for blood
wrenching our guts and searing the innards
this voice within us gnawing on our minds
evil resides among mankind
between rats and dirt
in a dim lit desolate room
incarcerated souls
rotting in their tomb
a perverted mind
a family trapped inside
seek and kill drill their skulls
eat their meat no body no trial
lock away seize control
rob their lives deprive their minds
deep, down in our minds
we bear a demon inside
in humankind
there is only misery to find
in apathy we glare
emotionless the stare
numbed are our senses
for each other we donโt care

Anthropocene
08:17
|
|

|
๐๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐จ:
colossal steel giants
plowing through the seas
pillars of concrete
spewing black secrete
thousand tons of steel
swarming through the skies
monolithic buildings
towering our lives
the age of man the anthropocene
an era of extinction this new century
the age of man the anthropocene
the everlasting remnants of our domain
ravished our lands
stripped and straightened out
burnt and scorched the earth
from over-exploitation
monstrous metal teeth
hollowing the ground
gnawing on its roots
killing stem and fruits
artificial soil
composed of toxic dross
forms layer upon layer
the fundament of loss
an unforgiving desert
flattened plain of dirt
synthetic lifeless matter
no chance for a rebirth
plundered our seas
filled with toxic waste
left in total darkness
to disintegrate
the sediment of man
enduring all of time
a layer of extinction
another narrow line
we walk on barren fields
delusional and lost
praying for salvation
to fabricated gods
the monuments we leave
will crumble over time
all whatโs left of us
another narrow line

Thirst
07:59
|
|

|
๐๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐จ:
a restless wanderer callous scavenger
the roots of decline you spread with each stride
mindless conquerer of soil and nature
the seeds that you stray are the sprouts of decay
usurper of worlds to dominate and control
detached yourself from your natural soul
your coveting claws
rooting boundless and deep
burrowing grasping all in its reach
to quench your thirst your rapacity
to please your unfathomable greed
with uncontrolled cancerous growth
you proliferate a healthy world
towering monoliths cutting the skies
the wilderness tamed reorganized
the sapience numbed in circles you tread
the cerebrum cut off rotten and dead
your coveting claws
rooting boundless and deep
burrowing grasping all in its reach
to quench your thirst your rapacity
to please your unfathomable greed
to quench your thirst
your rapacity
to satiate your greed
deaf we became
to the whispering winds
and the roaring seas
blind we became
to the blooming fields
and the beauty of such
numb we became
to the breath of the earth
and all living beings
ruthless we consumed
our planets guts
bleeding from within
we sealed our tomb shut
you self-righteous longing for power
gluttony over all means

Forgotten Souls
03:51
|
|
||
|
๐๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐จ:
merely living forgotten souls
caged and trapped
while the walls are coming close

Kings
08:31
|
|
||
|
๐๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐จ:
as slaves we crawl
our lives deprived
silenced de-humanized
tormented souls encaged, controlled
with shattered minds and broken spines
numbed we march along the lines
laid out for us until our decline
on his colossal throne
a golden writing bears:
i am the mighty king of kings
my ruling just and fair
in the darkest night we dwell in constant light
continually awake though fast asleep inside
deceived by our masters we keep feeding the machine
in lockstep we march forward as heirs to their schemes
lead astray
in dismay
we obey
every word you say
revolt oppose
the time has come his lies unfold
our raging wrath befalls his reign
congest the cogs and cut the cords
arise! destroy!
the king was caught
we took his crown
his ruling is no more
upon his burning throne (the king)
with disbelieve he stares (was slain)
dethroned the cruel tyrant king
his head placed in a snare
overthrown his tyranny
we hanged him with a snare
now on his broken throne
victorious we stand
a withered writing bears:
here lies the long forgotten king
to challenge him, we dared
here lies the long forgotten king
to challenge him, we dared

Flesh and Stone
05:00
|
|
||
|
๐๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐จ:
nothing remains
borrowed our world
plundered and pillaged our lands
paved our world with deadly hands
one by one we erased
step by step we re-arranged
the imminent collapse awaits
we pull the trigger on ourselves
voices echo through the years
the call to heal the earth dismissed
buried in concrete and in the cold
sulfuric acid obscuring the Sun
never listened to the warnings we were told
eruptions paint the horizon
consuming all in their wake
born from earth's core weeping ash and suffocating air
a conglomerate of dust, flesh and stone
in endless growth we indulged
with consequences set aside
every drop of blood we turned to gold
every space we filled with lead
the imminent collapse awaits
we pull the trigger on ourselves
voices echo through the years
the call to heal the earth dismissed
buried in concrete and in the cold
sulfuric acid obscuring the Sun
never listened to the warnings we were told
eruptions paint the horizon
consuming all in their wake
born from earth's core weeping ash and suffocating air
a conglomerate of dust, flesh and stone

Haste
04:55
|
|

|
๐๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐จ:
The march of time drives us ahead
lost in despair of being late not up to date
life rushes by too fast to live it
trapped in a cycle unable to escape
this world is spinning faster
we are slaving for time
this world is spinning faster
and we keep wasting our lives
constant exertion constant distress
constantly hectic though motionless
lost in the rapids no time remains
an everlasting footrace in which we trail
this world is spinning faster
we are slaving for time
this world is spinning faster
and we keep wasting our lives

Belphegor have just levelled up, this is a Blackend Death masterpiece. All the aggression you would expect, but more dynamic encorparating more melodic passes into the chaos that is Belphegor.

One of the greatest austrian Black Metal Warriors calls for another pagan crusade. Howling and cursing for the gods of Chaos and Destruction. A pure Masterpiece.
