once again we are lost enslaved, victimized all too easy to lead exploiting our need for the social media feed our narcissistic greed into the clutches of yet another Distraction Industry - tells you who to be Distraction Industry - tells you what to see Distraction Industry - tells you how to be Distraction Industry - tells you what is real endless echo chambers digital «safe» spaces where we can wallow unopposed in stupidity where no opposing thought can breach our walls and we believe all never questioning the Distraction Industry - tells you who to be Distraction Industry - tells you what to see Distraction Industry - tells you how to be Distraction Industry - tells you what is real how did we substitute the shackles of religion for the tyrant in our pocket feeding us digital heroin

Tuntreet er felt løsrevet fra tradisjon og forfedre døren står på vidt gap og intet holder kaos tilbake i markedskreftenes vold er du overlatt til deg selv det er ingenting du kan si det er ingenting du kan gjøre maktesløs skal du falle til jorden og intet vil noensinne endres du stod ute i kulda og stirret inn i varmen overbevist om at der har du ingen plass du stod inne i lyset og stirret ut i mørket overbevist om at her har du ingen plass døden skal rive bort alt du har kjært alene skal du stå mens hele verden rakner mørket skal gripe deg og dra deg ned binde deg i tungsinn til alt håp slukkes dagen er et mareritt du ikke våkner fra og natten er lang som et vondt år

We burn for right beneath the surface there is always the threat of violence a thin veneer of civility to keep the beast at bay yet once unleashed we revel in the glories of our savagery this is who we are naked ape, bipedal virus this is who we are angel, devil - all in between this is who we are no gods, no others this is who we are (and) it was us all along We dream of fortune, fame and pastures green how clever is man so delusional, reality is optional dominator, destroyer, doomed we have remade the planet in our image and lo and behold – it is undone How i wish there was a Chtulhu waiting beneath the waves who could rise in indifference and wrath our downfall, eclipsing us all Alas, there is just us behold our works and despair

Maktesløs vi bevitner, jorden som forvitrer. Verden faller for griskhetens klør. Alt liv lider, havene dør ut menneskets griskhet styrer alt, alt føles så fjernt og kaldt pengenes jakt, ødelegger alt,fører til makt, Hat og forakt Farger svinner hen, alt blir grått falske farger gjenstår, elektronisk lys skal vi bare gjøre alt som før, som om ingenting skjer selv om alt rundt oss dør. Ingen bryr seg, alt forgjeves Tiden er kommet. Eller er det for sent? Hat og forakt. For at alt liv lider For at vår verden blir ødelagt Av de med makt Evig runddans av korrupsjon. Masker skjuler intensjon falskt håp, brutte løfter. de som skal hjelpe, de aller verste subsidier til død. Subsidier til ødeleggelse Alt som har skjedd, alt som vil komme. Vi er ingenting,vi er alt Det er vår egen feil, at alt har falt. Blind på egen makt fortapt i hat og forakt Hat og forakt. For at alt liv lider For at vår verden blir ødelagt Av de med makt Vår tid er kommet. Vår tid er forbi Vår tid er omme. Vårt samfunn vil falle Tiden er kommet, alt var forgjeves Vår ferd er over nå. Vår verden er fordrevet øynene lukket ville ikke se, vårt samfunn var bygd på løgn egoismen vart vår ende. et intenst hat og forakt for at vår verden er ødelagt

I can see into the dark, Celestial visions of these cryptic lights but I cant understand what I see, is this a dream or is it real slowly ascending into the dark where waves creates the light where chaos creates immortality ,the portal into another ultimate reality, a place of serenity self-existent essence I can see beyond this dark void. Manfestation of entities unaffected by space and time. lights twisting, warping. Travelling through the cold. Quiet consciousness, essence of life slowly ascending into the dark where waves creates the light where breath creates immortality ,the portal into another ultimate reality, a place of serenity self-existent essence entering an alternate reality past our existence, beyond our imagination In silence you will find, Imperishable existence Beyond our dreams, where everything is real Reminiscence in, this eternal place the place between dreams and what is real Incarnation of colours of an unknown spectrum the soul imperishable, Absolute, complete

Lurking Fear 04:36
let there be night pale gibbous moonlight cold and still wherein monsters roam try as you will there is no way home in these woods you are lost in this nightmare you are trapped in this world you are doomed your flesh crawls as the void opens darkness coalesces into nebulous forms icy razor maws hunger for sustenance prowling darkness – drawing near amorphous, abhorrent – lurking fear Opressive sensation – always there necrotic abominaton – lurking fear

Svart Lotus 05:54
Kjenner du vinden fra iskalde Leng i øst hylende stemmer kaller ensomhetens klagende røst i din indre mørketid finnes ingen trøst Svart Lotus - magiske narkotiske visjoner Svart Lotus - åpner dører til andre dimensjoner I sinnets irrganger som sivilisasjonen ennå ikke har temt primale krefter stemmer fra dypet snarveien til det som er bortenfor gud bortenfor lys og mørke Svart Lotus Dypere og dypere vend blikket inn for å se alt ditt indre mørklagte univers
