I rise in redemption, followed by these thoughts so vile Defying all I’ve known in lifelong solace and denial Fists risen in anger, howling songs towards the moon Free me from these shackles, for with reason I’ll commune Souls gone astray envision catastrophe Scenery set for our loss of identity Truth shattered by lies uncovered, shining through This judgment oh, so dire Guiding us through hellfire Pain that tortures me, yet I long to see Better days slither through sorrow Devour the hollow Endless nightmare Haunting my deathbed Dreams of despair Take my life instead All your prayers Reek of unconcern Save your tears Hypocrites shall burn Lost in shadows Oblivion Cry, undelivered Unrepentant Souls gone astray envision catastrophe Scenery set for our loss of identity

I surrender in seraphic bliss Reminiscing in all I left behind Writhing in the emptiness A sea of sorrow in a land of sighs Fading lights, this heart they bathe Weary eyes, shut, break the chains Align the stars for a final bow Unending fear of thoughts profane A life born from despair Bleeding such thoughts and dreams impaired My Goddess Eternal Hail the twilight, bless the moon Forever damned, the work of art Of carving dreams in the tree of life While betraying the ways of the heart Fading lights, such sweet embrace Move me closer to Her call Rip the flesh that taints the will For I'm to numb to care at all Shield me from despair Believing such thoughts and dreams impaired Take this life My shame My strife This hatred I feed within my veins Enlightens the embers from the charred coal of Your embrace, so cold in my arms, tonight So bow down To my mistress In Death

Serpent deity, goddess of Vision Eternal temptress of enlightenment Come to us, in eternal wisdom Truth being thy only commandment Forbidden fruit Open the eyes of the blind Soil thyself Upon the filth our kind Dawn awakes thee to life So arise, coming undone And look down, with shame To the evil that has been done By the light that fades From within, for what we've become Take hold of my hand Witness the chaos we condone Under thy shade Tree Of Wisdom Witness the lies Of Heaven's sons Dawn awakes thee to life So arise, coming undone And look down, with shame To the evil that has been done By the light that fades From within, for what we've become Take hold of my hand Witness the chaos we condone Paint the skies in grey We shall not fall, for we are the chosen legacy The blessed, destined to ride the Beast with our wrath In time, all the world’s blindfolds shall wither Raise thy fists, to walk the path of the Libra Liars, sinners, traitors Wallow in shame Liars, sinners, traitors You're all to blame Crucified, dead inside Torn apart, I’ve denied All that I am, you'll never be Cradled by the arms of disonesty Wallow in shame, we’re all to blame Call upon your saints to abide you From all the evil that you’ve done In the course of your life

Death comes down Disease holding hands with death As paranoia suffocates us War shreds all within its path Enthroned hatred originates Bodies paving ruined streets Drowning in a grave of lies Rising towards impending doom Chorused by children's cries Can someone tell me where to look Amidst this madness A world surrendered to the void Engulfed by wings, oh so black As I decay Absent solace From a world So devious As blood spills on these pages Imprisoning ghosts inside my head Holding on by a single thread I weep for the songs of old The passing of the ages Weighs the cross I have to bear For these fears have me ensnared Trapped inside a life so cold Violence dictates a world Of souls living in vain Madness takes its toll For all the hope that has been slain I decay Destined countdown Shrouded in anguish Absent forgiveness Can someone tell me where to look Amidst this madness A world surrendered to the void Engulfed by wings, oh so black And so I feel Within my core Death is alive For evermore

about

Dream | Oblivion is a story about a futile search for inner peace in a corrupted world. Each song reflects a new state of mind that begins in bleak enlightenment, followed by misery, a quest for solace, and finally, a fall into the pits of despair. Dream | Oblivion is an awakening that ends in the return to the conforting arms of death... our Goddess Eternal.
