Septic Coma 07:10
Spark-less brown, eminent collection of rot, lost art, cleanse the offering tempt the lost Lucid liquid filling the lungs, to peak Mummified existence of the mung The dark released... Soul calmed, Breath is over Slow heart Septic coma, the pain Enter once, no return from the moistened fate Spawned larvae venting decay Wet touch, melting the loins away Dawn's darkness, mental dismay Every step is external Every breath soaked inferno Omnipresence, cloaked by disease Sharp sepsis holds the key The swamp has me shown no pity I don’t expect it to start The swamp has me shown no pity My death becomes its art Bury my soul within the mud So I can feel the warmth of hatred Melt my skin as I become One with the bog of leeches I crave its infection Other worldly protection I now crave its infection Until my soul transcends sin Stretch my skin, becoming kin The infrastructure lost within Moisture whispers as I bleed Clawed inscriptions as I read, to bloom

Waking, to a sound I cannot hear Taking, hollow ground and manic fear Breathing, alas the harm has basked my fate I find, colossal charm inside this pain (Colossal charm inside this pain) Alive inside the gripping mess This otherworldly simple text There is no hope Every grain will lead to join them There is no hope Melting rain, I preach destroyed hymns (There is nothing) Wonderful sinking relief Plentiful grief The slain speak this language torn between Every putrid breath I conjure Transmission proceeding fate Seven lucid mitochondria Lost beneath, I speak its name Each movement, evolution Each soothing death will prove him Each movement, evolution Crawling lost in melting sharp dismay Every fucking time Seven rotting lies Every violent smile Every fucking time Seven rotting lies Every thought comprised Lost inside Chalked and fed (Every putrid breath I conjure Transmission proceeding fate Seven Lucid mitochondria Lost beneath, I speak its name) As we pass.... The marked bacterial mass of hope X2 Evil, broken lie As we, rise blind Design, everything Putrid, I suffer

Anatomy failing Catastrophic results Nucleus spawning chaos Delicious harm ensues Delicacies laid on the hardened Blackened earth becomes the way We must consume it all before this Spastic march of pain begins Resourceful martyrs paste the shame between the lotus wings to grow As the darkest winds commence breath the hate to lure below (to lure below) Evolution starts to breed The calm pollution from the depths return Lost penance longs to teach The serpents wrath, the young consumed by old I breathe the mold I breathe the spore and leap away I breathe the mold I long for more as the meek decay I breathe They all look and gaze in wonder As the ruined mass increases Thoughts black innocence taken Harlots plunder lost within I breathe the mold I breathe the spore and leap away I breathe the mold I long for more as the meek decay Enemies of septic opposition Battle microscopically Every victory is celebrated optically This lowered demolition onward where our calling lies It's never-ending when these wings are spread, we never die We never die I breathe the mold I breathe the spore and leap away I breathe the mold I long for more as the meek decay X2 We lie beneath We never die

A bloated husk dried and wilting The dying sun burns dimly Life has left this hallowed ground Salted and forgotten A stone of centuries built upon Minerals of ancient fathom Healing through dark secrets Destined for the dirt A void of neolithic messages Carved into a cave Knowledge of a dying race Destroying all that's sacred Buried in a water grave Blooming with bacteria Intrepid insects taking over Claimed by foreign objectivity A baron wasteland holds the key To understanding truth Searching for the hidden orb That sealed the fate of millions Oracle of Innumerable Truths Spreading throughout history Passed down from one Accepted by another Two worlds One life Resting in obscurity Dying in the endlessness Of a hollow shell planet Two worlds One fate Resting on the petals Of a dormant black lotus

Discolored moss binds arterial mucus Roots penetrating rancid flesh Pineal gland secretions eased unto death Malformed by the haunting growth Postmortem saliva nourishing Breeding of a new species Contagion spreads among the vines, thrust into existence Accelerated decay of skeletal structure Congruous, graceful transition Rising from the stagnant depths Bubbling malicious ecosystem Contamination of the earth A plume of toxic spores congeal Beneath the surface, like pulsing veins Contorted beyond all hope A shattered vision of unity The forest consumes all life Photosynthetic Attunement Fragile yet devastating A pool of coagulated affluence Teeming with mutated cells Dividing uncontrollably An evaporated shell Strangled before a wooden shrine Splattered innards turn to dust Blowing on the hallowed breeze A cosmic psyche lust Foraged, consumed and invigorated The progress won't be denied Rapid growing pustules Invasive and fatal

"An incredibly visceral take of Chasmdweller’s immensely vicious sound with this record in particular bringing something out from within the material that exudes a go-for-the-throat mentality." - Headbanger Reviews
