Damnation Of Memory

Bleak reality has a cold grip on the land
Grand agents of nature are indestructible
Sharp reek of diseased metal fills the air
Roots within scarcely breathing structures emerge
A scornful silence



Time slowing down
Settling dust
New order in place
The Earth’s great return

Hours turn to days to years
Witnessing the dance of a thousand suns
Vast hive now deserted
Rotten
Gutted oblivion

Ashes
Dirt, nothingness

God proposed, man disposed
Defined by negatives and absences
Ashes
Dirt, nothingness

Continually
Changing
Apocalypse
Abandoned
Crucified Alone

In this vision there is no morality to be seen
Fading halo
Surrendering to the absolute
Dissolving

Marching from darkened times
Rise of the animal angel complete
Dubious salvation
Past altered
The future changed
Memories Controlled

Perceiving everything
Recalling nothing
Recalling everything
Perceiving nothing

False messiahs return
Preaching to the blind and nameless
Enforced, imposed
Nothing has changed
Cycle repeats
What was seen as triumphs failing
Unmatched Phoenix
Bursts into flames on sight

Preach
Enforced
Imposed
False
Preach
Enforced
Imposed
Nameless
