Ruined earth, orb of hate
All lifeforms, must escape
Since her birth, now decayed
Firestorms, a reminder that we've strayed
Sprint to the ship, before it's too late
Noxious gas, blackened skies
Mankind has, sealed our fate
Evacuate, as all light dies
Alone in the universe
A nightmare come true
Explosions, crystal clear
From above, stare in fear
Businessmen, stench of greed
Congressmen, planters of the fatal seed
Put on your suit, before it's too late
Pray and wait, the end is near
Out of air, cannot respirate
We will lose all we hold dear
Alone in the universe
A nightmare come true
I've lost the others in this sea of stars
The earth destroyed, and left with scars
The void engulfs me as I slip away
A distress signal, the sound that remains
Foolish we were to ruin our home
Do we deserve redemption? A tomb?
Tragic acts make this life succinct
Greedy ideals make us extinct
All alone in the universe
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
A nightmare come true
Entropy dissolves all of us
Our absence is meaningless

Devastated from finding the truth
Hidden, by lies
Manifest my emboldened self
That you taught me to despise
Take away my dignity with
Your strict, control
Torn apart by the distain
When you finally face my vitriol
Reject the shadows that you project
The truth prevails
Alleviate the weight on me
From your, ego
These stale tactics you use
Are so easily seen through
Never again will I be crossed
By you, your kind
Preservation of myself
Will become your loss you'll find in time
Reject the shadows that you project
The truth prevails
Karmic Retribution
Prepare for your demise x2
Rediscover my freedom
The end? Unsure
Ruminate on all the pain
I was coerced to endure
Bridges burned but ash remains
Cannot turn back
New journey ahead of me
The unending night begins to crack
Reject the shadows that you project
Severance

A Vacant Stare
05:50

Disconnect
Body from mind
Slowly
Leave the world behind
Numb to
Cuts that bleed
Trauma within
No release
I suffer
Silently
No one will know
What's trapped deep down below
Repressing my mind
Can't tell what's real
When life lost its appeal
Excitement, no more
Fake
Expressions
I force
Now a vacant stare
Can't reveal
any more
No more pain
Never hurt again
Or suffer
To be me
My efforts were in vain
Delusion perpetuates
Reality sets in
Shattering confidence x2
No one will know
What's trapped deep down below
Repressing my mind
Can't tell what's real
When life lost its appeal
Excitement, no more
Concept of self, now lost to time
Just a stranger who once was mine
Without purpose, no direction
These afflictions, my self destruction
-Solos and interlude-
Let go
of all
I am
Trapped in
Limbo
Floating
Forever
I crumble
Into Dust
No one will know
What's trapped deep down below
Repressing my mind
Can't tell what's real
When life lost its appeal
Excitement, no more

We
Are livestock to the rich
And those in charge
Lie
To our face
"You control your fate"
Oust
The disadvantaged, weak
To keep them down
Doom
Comes for us while
They smirk from their thrones
Yet we, betray
Ourselves, again
Indoctrinated to believe we're free
Individualistic ideals seethe
Chasing foolish meritocracy
Forever
Preach
Our self-interest precedes
Society
While
We demolish
All the progress made
Blind
Leading the blind off
A deadly cliff
Why?
Why can't we see
Before it's too late?
Yet we, betray
Ourselves, again
Indoctrinated to believe we're free
Individu alistic ideals seethe
Chasing foolish meritocracy
Forever
Replace entitlement
With solidarity
No compassion
Lost empathy
Without unity
We will fall
Slave
Away and toil again
Sisyphus
Die
Expendable
All for their gain
Change
It will never come
We wait in vain
Our
Culture is
Unsustainable
Yet we, betray
Ourselves, again
Indoctrinated to believe we're free
Individualistic ideals seethe
Chasing foolish meritocracy
Forever
Believe
Foolish meritocracy

Luminescent

Black night
Lost fight
Demons
Tear me
Apart
Again
Holding on to the flame inside
Don't give it up, don't let it die
Persevere until the very end
Follow your heart, do not pretend x2
Passion forcibly sequestered form these fading embers
Cannot be rekindled, my attempt deterred
I can't press on in this state, looping without end
Maybe one day I can see the shining light again
Holding on to the flame inside
Don't give it up, don't let it die
Persevere until the very end
Follow your heart, do not pretend x2
Floating in the depth of my mind, I will take back what's mine
Getting back up to face, the challenges of this place
One day I'll swim free, in luminescent seas
Deep down below the tide, possibility resides
Holding on to the flame inside
Don't give it up, don't let it die
Persevere until the very end
Follow your heart, do not pretend x2

Since Spenser Moore replaced Blackburn I’ve frankly appreciated Inferi far more. I feel that his drumming improves the overall sound of the band a great deal, but it’s probably just a personal style preference. Either way, Of Sunless Realms was a great foreshadowing of the epic Vile Genesis.
