Satellighting desecrated No forgiveness shall be ours Every signal dissipated Hell awaits us in this land New invaders bent on conquering Unimagined their atrocities Disappearances abound in this Poisoned kingdom, endless in unrest Don’t look back Home has vanished Forget your home

Ruined Oak

|

|
End your leagues of migration Turn away from home and nation I know this pain you’re holding This is your heart I am holding Could have eased you in your troubles Cut you open, left you gutted Hold these torches, join the new clan Leave your old life in its ruin
And none betrays the rule that governs Adders’ Land

Last of the Green Vial
03:40
|
|

|
Drifting ship brought to bear On the sound Where a town disappears from the map From a lion they alight from the prow Voices calling for the knights, butchered now Reach for them with my cries I'm nothing now, but Skull and ribs and a spine

Arms That Flood

Lizzie queen, I know you’ll hear my plea The state of things, it ain’t a pretty scene Digest the poison, metamorphoses A chrysalis discarded, collapsing colony You know the kids are home You know they’ve got no father You know they’ve got no sword You know they’ve got no armor Depleted feed, we made some enemies So I petition thee to send a laden fleet Arms that flood the land with blood

Blackjaw

Wise owl came and told me Strangers came in from the sea Survival not guaranteed
Tribe is looking to me We’re piling ‘em up Blackjaw We’re digging a hole We’re lighting a fire Erasing the scene The signal, the sky We’re lighting a fire Erasing the scene

My mind, it’s rotted with hope I’m still looking Horizon You shall not board You must stay Stay here now Make your way Left you there Help from the crown Be well, Dare Three years gone And back I come To my only ones Storms arise North wind blow Chief men drowned In the rising tow Rags and bones No else remains Birds all flown Break my heart Lost anchorage Consign you to God Had we never loved so kindly Had we never loved so blindly Never met, never parted Broken-hearted

At the oak, you stood waiting Left alone and abandoned Factions roam like the currents Daughter’s bones, cruelly weighted Yeah we were a storied wonder Way across this neurotic sea Magnetic, unflagging All the cells, all the stars Connected, resonating
What are we waiting for? Take me home if you’ll have it Be no ghost, little maiden Marked in stone, wayward orphan Death will come, cruel waiting

Fire is a Whore

Crawling over bones and blood Pile the pyre, dancing fire Crawling over bones and blood Wicked tale, it fades away But the imprint still remains Wicked fire, the charred remains New growth will make its way Crawling over bones and blood Pile the pyre, dancing fire Crawling over bones and blood Wicked fire, the charred remains New growth will make its way Built upon

A Maiden Nerve
05:32
|
|
||
|
Old knots, old nerves Unreal The days are turning gray My hands are froze, my face is pale The captain left us here He said good luck But I know…we’re fucked Fin’lly we moved, searching for food Child in her youth, doomed like a ewe I cut the loam, gathered the stones Lowered my baby’s body to tomb Envisioning Everything There’s nothing

The Savage Sky

Yerushalayim, born anew among them Lands are stripped and bonded Realm of devils’ wonders ‘Neath the cross sink under Ruined oak absconded Crucify, savage sky Crossing lines fill the sky

Those deep-set eyes They betray the flame Snuffed out of your days Those vacant eyes Dark and weary soul Your gold was a new home Those deep-set eyes He’ll live like a slave And die like a king You sit in your balcony I’ll sit in the dirt You sit in the balcony I’ll sit in this dirt I know that honor I know that glory I know that honor I know that glory I know It lies in The salt Of this earth

Tusk Aurora

These fucking errants We’ll watch them crawling Starving and barren ‘Til they come calling This human scree Fear greed and lust Aspirant kings will be Impaled upon the tusk Some say the white men are ten billion strong Others believe that we’ve witnessed the last of their Lecherous land grabbing. As for myself? I don’t mistake the extent of their treachery

Floor-to-ceiling Boris ragers! It’s like they looked back on songs like Statement and Woman On the Screen and said “let’s do a whole album like that!” Most of these tracks don’t even pass 3 minutes! Zerkalo holds up the middle with some anguished doom. In the end, *NO* is as strong and declarative as it’s title.
