𝙇𝙮𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙨:
where is my showdown?
where is my epic twist?
when reality kicks in again
I struggle to end up in bliss
northern lights shape my sky
enjoying the absence of light
a lunar eclipse of mind
I haven‘t been the best of me
for quite some time
you haven‘t met the best of me
down? not right ...
transcendance
towards my home
(transcendance) my life began
(ascendancy) where fear would end
(transcendance) tranquillity in all I do
I sleep with faith to find myself
find myself
I‘m searching for myself
till all the pieces fit
this chapter’s coming to an end
now love is black
that can‘t be all, a new beginning
from the start is what I need
a silver lining in the dark
where do I start?
down? not right ...
(transcendance) my life began
(ascendancy) where fear would end
(transcendance) tranquillity in all I do
I sleep with faith to find myself
the set of a cruel reality, I fade it out
but there’s still days that shadows take me down
you‘re far from me
a beautiful yet burning star
the symphony of summer nights
so bright, so cruel, so deep, so far
my past?
so close and yet so far
transcendance
ascendancy
mark my words
ban the chaos inside
I still feel you inside my veins
I still feel you in my mind
ascendancy ... as darkness falls
(transcendance) my life began
(ascendancy) where fear would end
(transcendance) tranquillity in all I do
I sleep with faith to find myself
the set of a cruel reality, I fade it out
illuminate the shaded path of truth
so someday I may
find myself like born anew

A dormant Peril

𝙇𝙮𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙨:
these memories are fragile
they come and go as the tides fall and rise
I watch the crashing waves
like tales of love and laughter
all erased over time
since then the land has broken
and all the skies have changed
still I could never rearrange
my life
suddenly altered
out of all colour
out of my truth
the signs
are making me falter
in search of perspective
I'm chasing my youth
I should have known it back then
we should have known it better
after all the pain
among these tales of sorrow
I curse the night we killed the flame
I catch her scent in the pines
all washed away by the tides
I still regret I could not let her go
in time
I could not help it
a dormant peril
inside
all night
watching the fires
lying awake and
trapped in my mind
reshape the fabric of reality
as the Norns are weaving fate
my fingers deep within their web
becoming a weaver of eternity
restructuring
all that was
that is
that shall be
we will change
all that was
that is
that shall be
let us change
all that was
that is
that shall be
until then
we lie
we both lie
dormant

𝙇𝙮𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙨:
black mirrors
bleak nights
a blood moon’s up the skies
I feel there’s still a chance
we can turn back events
I’m sensing a change of hearts
but for what?
all hope turned into screams
the night we touched the petroglyph
one day the stars may turn
the day the light returns
still your intentions leak
come watch me break the line
black mirrors
bleak nights
I won’t let you die in the hallway
in shards of your scattered mind
we’ll respawn in the future
prove me time is a lie
and we still long for more
behind closed doors
for you I change the current
engage in sacred rites
when day bleeds into darkness
we will turn back the time
recover, respawn
the choice is still your own
are you here?
I fear you died in the hallway
in shards of your scattered mind
we’ll respawn in the future
prove me time is a lie
remember
dilation of time
the gravitation of your sight
ignore the borders of the mind
dimensions of time
just spread your wings and fly
I accept a deeper truth
I believe in the signs
you’re shattered, still scared
yet you are not yourself
all scattered, aware that there’s still
shards in the hallway
I still lie wounded but we are alive
we're still alive
dream on
I hold on
respawn
was it all a dream then?
so let this quest continue
so let this dream go on
wake up and respawn

AŌTHABAŌTH BASYM :> ISAK SABAŌTHIAŌ
AŌTHABAŌTH BASYM :> ISAK SABAŌTHIAŌ
this is the story of an experiment
the story of an initiation
all of you
who share our fire
who join us in the otherworld
become a part of us
find your mission
find the keys
find your purpose
find companions
I summoned you, headless one
who created earth and heaven
who created night and day
who created the light and the darkness
---
blurring senses
now it is not the time to keep pretending
there’s nothing and no one behind
as we walk
I better give you credit for
what you do
for this night could rewrite us all
combine again
the precious and the vile
join the ritual
make this the night
of our lives
last time into blackness
I'm the headless one
I find myself invincible
empowered and repentless
daybreak
leaves me breathless
yet we're facing all our inner demons
on the face of the abyss
we better fix ourselves or die
that sorrow beyond all those broken dreams
is just another shadow shining through
another third eye spy is waiting right in line
it might change lives they said
in incandescent light
we call upon thee
for our sacrifice
intensify
the numinous feels right
we call upon thee
for our sacrifice
for our new lives
last time into blackness
we're the headless ones
we find ourselves invincible
empowered and repentless
last dive
into darkness
we were facing all our inner demons
on the face of the abyss
we find ourselves
alive
life can begin
again
we were facing all our inner demons
on the face of the abyss

𝙇𝙮𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙨:
grief
a requiem
who knows what’s lying past the gates
desires?
dark depths of the psyche
one of us gone astray
fall like a meteor
as we hold on to the past
and as you fall forever
your memory shall last
Stillwater River trembling in grief
may the spirits guide your way
until the waters enter the sea
until the tides washour doubts away
a dark moon rising
sigils are cold
until your knowledge will unfold again
Stillwater River trembling in grief
may the spirits guide your way
until the waters enter the sea
until the tides wash our doubts away
there is a moment
in every dawn
when first light is spilled
and the waters will moan
the world holds its breath
you lived for the moment
you made us believe
that nothing’s meant to stay
with us, your legacy remains
with us, you will live for another day
none of us is getting out alive
and some things can’t be changed
every hour wounds
but only the last one kills
fear is contagious
just as death
when cold blood is spilled
live for another day
you left us more
than you ever tried to give
keep wandering on

𝙇𝙮𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙨:
everybody run
I still smell your fear
you shouldn't wander here
in these lands
blood on your hands
tell us what was lost
in these dreams of rust
is suspicion burning
all your trust
there's no way out
I demand we meet as equals
no negotiation
just show your eyes
I'm surprised, your spirit's wild
determined to become my prey
negotiations
nothing's in my way
determination
I am here to stay in your way
I will rise
your minds are mine
determination
betrayed your fate
I will know your names
we can face the fear
we will wander here
just let us earn your trust
she's a sorceress of might
better stay together to keep out of her sight
I am the power
I control the waves of fate
I see your true colours
walking in my lands
crushing, rising, falling
watch your world in disarray
in my word lies shelter
watch you fading all away
there's no way out
I demand we meet as equals
no negotiation
now show your eyes
I'm surprised, your spirit's wild
determined to become my prey
negotiations
nothing's in my way
determination
I am here to stay
stay
reincarnation
you're still here
we will not go away
life is constant change
alliance be arranged
we might share one fate
for greater good you stand
so welcome to my lands
we might share one fate
sorceress, come with us
share your wisdom, spread your fire, walk with us
step out
feel the light
step out
together we can rise
place your trust into the fates
share our will to break the gates
sorceress
that's the way
join us, walk with us
feel the fire, burn the pyre, walk with us
you have a deal, I will agree
as soon as we reach the sycamore trees
fire, walk with us
fire walk with us
fire, walk with us
fire walk with us

𝙇𝙮𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙨:
the time was right to go
when clarity would fall
he could watch their fall
the man who passes the sentence
should also swing the sword
to fight abomination
and what they called law
watching closely as they fall
a new morning means new goals
a blast will end it
he'll be fine
old story of betrayal
and revenge to make him shine
trapped in a wheel of violence
but loss still felt severe
when the time was right for a sentence
to his own laws he’d adhere
call him f4v5t
rising to new heights
all these nights of suffering
will be worth their time
watching closely as they fall
a new morning means new goals
a blast will end it
he'll be fine
old story of betrayal
and revenge to make him shine
what is right?
what is justice?
take off your mask
and find your own path through the dark
when friend turned into fiend
he pursued his dreams
watching closely as they fall
a new morning means new goals
a blast will end it
he'll be fine
old story of betrayal
and revenge to make him shine
what is right?
what is justice?
the enemy might still be nigh
what is right?
true nature won’t reveal
until the moment of a fight

The Awakening

𝙇𝙮𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙨:
gasping for mouldy air, screaming a silent scream
wild eyes adapting to the darkness slowly
lying on stamped earth having trouble breathing
smoke burning in your eyes set on a fleeting light
there must be a reason, an explanation
fuck reason and get out, so let’s conjure
another spark is coming, enlightening your lives
the inspiration growing stronger as you choose your side
birthed in the dawn of an autumn’s day
we awakened a world
praise the Old Gods
a mystery awakening in you
there is always a place for one more
now the curtain opens
when you are on the edge
when you can hear the bells
have you considered to become someone else?
so always question
invalid images that might be just a projection
down on you when shadows match
have you considered to become someone else?
go
trust
step up
one step further
birthed in the dawn of
an autumn’s day
we awakened
a world
and a Goddess
may She bless our collective mind
as long as inspiration stays
praise Her image
that’s the spirit
resurrected and invoked
Hekate, guide our souls
in case of doubt
always question
disturbing images just rescued from the ashes
breathe
trust
focus
burn
lose yourself in the dawn
another spark is coming, enlightening your mind
the inspiration growing stronger as we choose our life
io heka io ho
io heka io ho
io heka io ho
abre camino
as I soar high
and I soar wide
I become my words
by dint of magic I become my inner lore
that has been sleeping deep inside
whooooah
are you sure you are awake yet?
then remember this day
out of the void
out of nothing
we created something great
beneath the waters
in the air
all around us
in our faith
we’ve awakened another lore
you shall long for even more

𝙇𝙮𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙨:
last time I tried
daimonic interference
in the eye of the mind
we can spot many things
trapped in a world
trapped in a loop
trapped in a hole
beyond our own devising
ashes and pines
pylons and fire
burn brighter this time
inside the rabbit hole’s
where your future meets the past
when worlds collide
when will you realise
that we’re just stories
loose ends
time wired
accept
it’s happening again
realise
alone you sleep
and alone you dream
crossroads
rites
pylons, fires
aeons, night
life, will
hyper sigil
lust, alive
burn brighter
real eyes
loose ends
time wired
accept
it’s happening again
realise
alone you sleep
and alone you dream
time wired
and alone you dream
next time I try
daimonic interference
living a dream inside a dream
when was the last time that you really tried
when will the time come that you realise
your strength
it’s all within you
it’s happening
within
you

the past is still screaming
the future on hold
not all who wander are lost
sinking in deeper
holding on tight
where darkness lingers
ember rise
still standing
still pending
reach deep into my soul
still all I see is dust and debris
one blast we can take
with fate on its way
when nothing seems alright
it is time to clear your mind
with our hearts in the trees
we will dance into doom
only nothingness awaits
in this room
collective
colours
unity of mind
trapped in a dream
hearing these screams
louder and louder
breaking the silence
trying to escape
or dying to awake
from where nothing seems right
from an emerald sky
from the shades on my mind
our dreams in disguise
where nothing seems right
I can start out again
come, disguise my mind
surrealisation
so we are dancing
so, we are dancing
so we are dancing
towards the moon
so we are dancing
right through the curtain
so, we are dancing
right into doom
all will be fine
beyond the veil

𝙇𝙮𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙨:
isolate what you can remember
apparently our past was dismembered
too many fragments being forlorn
behind a black veil, yet reborn
there might be hope buried in new grounds
still the truth you wanted is in the end not what you found
your ring will tell you who you’ve been before
your former life is nothing to mourn
I can’t remember can’t forget
thus this silence
I feel so lost, my path seems set
once on your way, do not look back
I can’t remember can’t forget
a noxious alliance
I feel so lost along this way my path seems set
finding your own take on this mystery
will make the path a little less misty
once at the crossroads, refuse to look back
confine the shadows before they attack
there lies a truth buried among the dead
two hints are covered in deep blood red
three black things to enter the gate
four of a kind to open the way
I can’t remember can’t forget
thus this silence
I feel so lost, my path seems set
once on your way, do not look back
I can’t remember can’t forget
a noxious alliance
I feel so lost along this way my path seems set
I hear this voice I used to know
look for this face that doesn’t show
words are no whisper in the wind
they form a storm
still can’t find anyone to blame
storms are calling out my name
your ring weighs heavy ‘round my neck
our future’s dark
there’s no way back
where are you?
who are you anyway?
there’s been scrying of a black lodge
where are you?
who are you anyway?
and it’s her who will never give her name
I can’t remember can’t forget
none the wiser
I feel so lost, my path seems set
it seems you lost a part of you
I can’t remember can’t forget
thus this silence
I feel so lost along my way
my path is set

rise
from the darkness
at times I lost my path
in cold and barren lands
and still no one shall leave this place
with empty hands
secrets unleashed
moaning your name
out of the cold
and back into the flames
into the flames
once more
out of the smoke
when fire rains
immortal
our names
life above the ground
from the ashes
once again
all that was devoured
shall return
one spark can start a flame
connected the the future
the truth is clear
that in the end
serenity will crush all fears
memories of truth
fire in the sky
dissolving old beliefs
the night the darkness died
darkness died
all that was lost shall be saved
one spark can start a flame
life above the ground
from the ashes
once again
all that was devoured
shall return
one spark can start a flame
unbreakable
recreatable
one spark can start a flame
