Absurdity, where all reign
Rules in decadence and stupidity
Mutilated weak minds without essence
No value to put on their heads
Frustration to the core
Lustful anger fed through the empty echoes
Penetrating their minds through the dirtfilled cavities
That melt into their subdivision of fools
Futile the laughters of dead delight
No creation through their supposed might
Flooded by bleeding whores who forcefeed them all with those lies
Their morals lost and turned around
Once motivated with empty arguments
Self targeted cluster bombs and a structure to fall
Nothing withstands this that breathes though us all
The blind try to keep sentry as I walk before them
Hidden beneath a veil of their own
Stolen, treacherous, vile
Choke all that is left of you
Within your "truth" you'll only find denial
And nothing is evermore to be born
For my death - your fall

Blank Code
04:05
|
|||
|
No retreat from these horrid screams
That nag my mind day and night
No escape from embers of hatred
Awake, I see no other way out
No chance for peaceful living
No hope for future plans
I wish not for tomorrow, to come with the dawn
Like coldness flooding my soul
Driving out my very existence
Sending me to better places
Holes, tunnels and pits of coal
Pulled further away from this life
Every minute is only another step closer...
Another nail hammered in my coffin
I can not mourn... no tears of regret flood from my eyes
For my only shame is to not have seen it sooner... this blank code
Smoke carving the walls with riddles
Charred flesh and screams of agony
It is my paradise long forgotten...
Of demons speaking in tongues
No lies drip from their hollow lips
No glory in their tales of despair...
Simple truth, like a text from a book
Like the aching I feel with every breath

Black Gleam Eye
04:24
|
|||
|
Empty, utterly cold inside
Lost in oceans of time
Blackened thoughts fill my days
Hatred fills my nights
Stuck in self loathing
Broken, crushed
The mirror shatters, reveals the past
I'm a frozen image, a memory in time
No feet to stand on
No wall to lean against
The same life re-lived time and time again
Dying per each lie unfold
Another empty bottle
Arms slit to the hilt
Scars reveal my tomorrow
Disease hidden underneath
Black gleam eye
My black gleam eye
Eating me like a cancer
Killing like a knife wound within
Infected with every breath
Feeding itself to keep me alive
Perpetuating lonesome loathing
Shows the loss of what I never owned
The screams of lifeless eyes are there
In every night, in every word

The Wanderer
06:10
|
|||
|
Being the beast in this chaos
To march in solitude towards the old unknown goal
The instinctive reactions to the smells around
Arouse the senses and feed the superiority
And in solitude find strength
The sound reasoning on a level that frightens most
Falls into place and
Motivates your needs, your deeds
As the thoughts flow by in cut up pieces but merge together
In a web of self-awareness
In the same room but always watching from the outside
Those objects... in solitude
The flesh is consumed and destroyed outside paradise
The shadow set up to create a longing for something
That we don't even know, if we seek or crave
Wandering downwards, deeper inside to be able to view it all with new eyes
Entwined with all these sweeping shapes who try to grab us
Crawling closer and closer to eat our inner selves
Twisting our strength
And fight that which stands at our gates
With bloodthirsty mouths open wide
"Perinde ad cadaver"
To Myself only

Torrents of Sorrow
05:49
|
|||
|
Retentless sorrow - slowly eaten alive
Throughly it gnaws at me every night
Pushed bit by bit closer to the edge
Revealing new ways to rise
As my stagnant frozen heart
In the pale firmament above
Torments and breaks me leisurely... precisely
Exhuberant void - humanity's gift
Empty feelings drive to futile deeds
Replaced with abhorrence - bleak despair given
Driven towards staggering deeds and vices against humanity
Relief found in sadistic exultation
Debaucheries and atrocities complete
Effortlessly flowing red rivers
States a feeling of comfort and release
Retentless sorrow masticates me nightly
Voids and lecheries gnaw at me every day
Momentous cries in addition
As I die to rise
As my stagnant frozen heart
In the pale firmament above
Torments and breaks me leisurely... precisely

Void Revelation
05:05
|
|||
|
Revelations engulfed my soul and mesmerized my empty flesh
Euphoria washed out over me and I knew that is was no hallucination
It became clear, the way He revealed before my eyes
That life was but a moment to choose
The Truth of empty lies
But I knew
A thousand deaths I would suffer to serve no longer as a slave
A thousand deaths I would drudge with thunder and vice
Through this void revelation
Let my eyes bleed out all sight
I denounce all that I have ever know
I denounce the "truths" that have only been phantoms
Be it above, so be it below
Let this flesh become ash
My soul seeps to the netherworld, through grounds of rotting strife
I sacrifice my every drop of blood to Him who has no past
I sacrifice my every vein to Him, the One without death and the one Without life
Satan, Salvation to those who have followed Your words
Let me rid of this empty life, and be rid of this putrid delight
Satan, Light for those who seek the Truth
May there be no more upheaval through the womb of life
Let my eyes bleed out all sight
I denounce all that I have ever know
I denounce the "truths" that have only been phantoms
Be it above, so be it below
Revelations engulfed my soul and mesmerized my empty flesh
Euphoria washed out over me and I knew that is was no hallucination
It became clear, the way He revealed before my eyes
That life was but a moment to choose

Evasive Contempt
03:58
|
|||
|
Desert dry sympathy
Black eyes lacking empathy
As life flooded out through the thin threads
The self talking through the surface reflection of the damned
Hard captured death
Forcing the blood from shattered veins
The multi faceted choices of torture
Regret has no home here
Scorn, turned away looks and betrayal
Escaping what was once here
Yet power held over her blood
Solely pleasure shed on flesh
Shaded thoughts
But sharp shadows revealing their true nature
Kneeling face down for fleshy deliverance
Asking to leave... breath dagged out Stepped on to my own display
Evasive Contempt
Desert dry sympathy
Black eyes lacking empathy
As life flooded out through the thin threads
Hard captured death
Forcing the blood from shattered veins
The multi faceted choices of torture
Regret has no home here

Heavenless Bliss
06:05
|
|||
|
Granted excess by the 7 tongues of lust
The flag once burned standing high
Desires for casket dreams once convoked
Brilliant it's deeds of what now shall be
Succumb for their needs
Ground o for their misdeeds
Vultures of uncontrollable gleam flourish
For He who is All stands alone
Heavenless in all that is remembered
Heavenless in all that we won't forget
Comforting the lust of whores
Caressing Icarus wings
Individualism in forms of red thorns
Edges of sharpened steel
He is awaken
He forever shall be All
Granted excess by the 7 tongues of lust
The flag once burned standing high
No place where to stand
I do not belong here
I do not belong here

Untouchable Euphoria
03:21
|
|||
|
Sympathy is wrought only by pain
Sweet agonies manifest in sultry screams
Blood like poison runs, flooding pale skin
Gleaming in the moonlight, glowing in seclusion
Bestial lust shaped from wounds
Cheap thrills as sharp as the razor
Shrieks as endless as the crimson drawn
She bleeds for me... she bleeds for my heart
Picking her skin, peeling her apart
I strive for the excellence of torture
I strive for that perfect scream
Untouchable euphoria
That will heal my heart... that will dissolve my suffering!
Bestial lust shaped from wounds
Cheap thrills as sharp as the razor
Shrieks as endless as the crimson drawn
She bleeds for me... she bleeds for my heart
Picking her skin, peeling her apart

Bleak Existence
04:19
|
|||
|
Corroded blades draw the fire of night
For a perished existence to a vortex of magnificence
No pleasure greater, no circumstance more dire
For now He lives through me
Underneath this flesh lies a broken man
Splitting the will of secret angels
Building bridges to other paradoxes
Swallowing Thy serpent semen
Corrupting for the God above, God below
With a heart who will see no hope nor love
Chains keeping talisman restrained
Making the dusk as eternal this man's fate
This bleak existence
The path, clearly revealed His essence of revelations unfold
From glorious white lines
To the unbearable shame of Man

Revealed Wounds
06:31
|
|||
|
Unveiled, the horrors within taking over
A new part of me revealed
Conquering virtue, painting over plainless with perversion
Killing me slowly... rebirth in it's bittersweet taste
Some things best left secret... some things better be chained
But I can no longer veil these inner demons...
I can no longer hide truth in chains of despair
Tonight I go on the prowl...
They see a shy soul
But they do not know what rips me apart
They cannot see the pain unveiled
Truth yet to unfold
Aching to unleash... longing to split open wide
I cannot fake another day
To feel alive, to feel the twinge of agony
To se Satan in the mirror of time...

Fierce, melodic, powerful, dark, brutal and highly sophisticated. This is a good example how devastating black metal can be if it comes together with diverse songwriting and skilled musicians. May be it's even the best example. Deus Mortem are simply great and they will take you with them by use of their dynamic force.
