Heights of a Sick Man 10:48
lyrics
Where my disease escapes me Where my sickness can't make me sweat I find comfort in the thought of death Where I come into my own My physiology betrays me So, to heal I need the solace of death To heal, I need the solace of death I am not safe No matter the heights I demand I am not safe The highest of highs is the lowest of lows I am not safe Blood pools in the palm of a hand I am not safe I am not safe To heal, I need the solace of death To heal, I need the solace of death Set up and knocked down Desperate to name he who sets me back up Dizzy with guilt Contaminated by spirit Contaminated by spirit Contaminating my spirit Sick man Sophisticated animal Suffering civilization Go on, find some clouds Find some clouds.

Absorbing the Brilliance of all Defeated Makers 08:26
lyrics
Declination towards a caliginous dominion No longer able to fawn over an underside that pulsates subservience Seek out the lacking and destroy all radiance Improve, survive, and absorb the brilliance of all defeated makers Then create the maker that destroys Then, the solace of death Only then will the torturesome malady cease its’ breathe Only then will the torturesome malady cease its’ breathe A holy insufflation that poisons naturally muddy waters With the see through essence off all things pure In darkness seek the cure.

Of the Gods and Their Vomit 09:11
lyrics
Obscurity, sacrosanct and devouring the horizon The celestial sphere has demanded that darkness rise Darkness rise. Mocking levity of the firmament Manifesting as the stillness of chaos Bellows from above Blinding light from below The illusion of choice vanquished by those it created Words from the mouths of babes Swallowed and spit up with the force of decay Vomited out onto earth Here stands heedlessness.

How to Submerge the Light 06:08
lyrics
Of the submerged light and the radiant night that follows A luminary born to the brightest age So only an umbra remains Wandering stars reeking with the rot of senescence Effluviums of divagation clouding all fresh air With the knowledge obtained from the radiant night One can be both a wandering star and a man who dies without despair What taught me how to submerge the light and to approach it with the caution of divination? When did I learn to see the stars for what they are? When I cast myself out from the womb of eternity and heedlessly approached their pithiness

Where the Sickness in the Sky Can Not Weight One Down 10:44
lyrics
Where the Sickness in the Sky Can Not Weigh One Down Winds change Waves crash into each other from opposing directions There is sickness in the sky And the depths below know only one direction Down Down Weighted by an inner drought Anchored by a need to drown Winds change Waves crash into each other from opposing directions There is sickness in the sky And the depths below know only one direction Down Down Weighted by the land of doubt Satisfy a need to drown An abyss of fleeting knowledge Sensory overload The birth pangs of progress And a filthy over lord An abyss of fleeting knowledge Sensory overload Sensory overload Never alone on my ocean For I have found the shores of heedlessness
