1.
Chambered within the lead vaults beneath cairn stones Entombed there in glacial darkness I am enthroned My shadow churns through vaulted halls The haunter in this endless sprawl I made the Maze of Harrow all my own My whispers echo through your marrow... Dungeons of Harrow Entombed with the pharaohs Dungeons of Harrow Towering spires of bone twist to endless depths Deathless procession, years in Silentium kept The path from here grows dark & narrow... Lead: "In Vaulted Halls Entombed" by P.Bruss Dungeons of Harrow Entombed with the pharaohs Dungeons of Harrow Lead: "Silentium's Keep" by P.Bruss "All fled, all done so lift me on the pyre The feast is over lamps expire" - REH
2.
Travelling the void within a comet Infiltrators from Shaggai have landed Earthside Spreading non-terrestrial infestation of the nano-Crustacean Hatching in a human incubator Maze of flesh concealing vast insectopolis Victim of their greedy annexation One solution: Cremation Ancient eggs made planetfall To colonize Neaderthal They taught our species how to crawl The age of logic foiled their plans They must impede the growth of Man Mining wealth from human bones A rich environment which they have claimed their own Lead: "Sarcoidosis" by P.Bruss Tissue is strip-mined of al, its secrets Greedy with the need to feed their endless knowledge System overwhelmed by the despotic Anti biotic Showing me the things I've never dreamed of Vast intelligence stolen from countless Lifetimes Midwife to the birth of constant malice
3.
Testimony of the mad & depraved Laboratorium of arcane mistakes Welcomed into the inner realms by dark apostles Wherein you shall dine upon the corpse of your own father In state beyond those bolted doors The vilest of fates: to feast upon your procreator Burn that beast, watch it squirm upon the ashes Vile conceit, contriver of the dark returning
4.
The moon once had trees So Mote it be Yesod beseech thee Hede now the ghastly sounds Reaching out from deep space A monstrous voice calls out from in the Oort cloud Dark Overlords Move swift through silent stars Wounding creation, leaving scars Future consuming star-devourers I caused the moon freeze So Mote It Be I am the ancient watcher who walks Malkuth They want it back, but here's the truth: This slaughterhouse leaves me nonplussed You're mere flesh to CRYPTICUS
5.
Wretched endless slumber The dream remains a maze to me Echoing in ancient causeways In grim pursuit of secrecy In foulness enshrined In endless dusk I am confined A student of all that decays A morbid truth has come to light: You could've met your fateful dawn If you had crossed the Phlegethon
