Track Name: Nexus of Grief: Harvest the fruit from long withered vines
whose roots have been strangled by ash
for here nothing grows but the wailing of loss
only the numb can carry the weight

Our souls are consumed by fevers
no succor of holy words from trembling throats
no absolution will come to this flesh
and the stench always lingers

Through the fractals eye
a horrid beauty has flown on darkened wings
casting shadows
upon the heartless
to cast its judgement
against all life

Scorch this wretched earth with the dying embers from the pyres of RA

Bathe our tainted flesh in the petulant blood of a bastard god

consume the souls of all within the infinite void of the leviathan's jaws

and dance as the raging flame bursting forth from the Dragon's hearth

Arise! Yee Architects!
Step down from your guilded thrones!
We've dismantled the temples of new to resurrect the kingdoms of old

We've feasted on scattered bones
and wandered through the plains
of dust in the vanity of
an ageless truth
Condemned to search for relics unknown
Hopeless...Endless..
Save us the fate of scavengers and vermin
Deathless
Always to wander

Epic, but engaging despite my short attention span! Really difficult to pick a favorite track. Such an awesome blend of riffs and styles, with the occasional transcendent clean vocal harmony and/or guitar harmony crawfinger
