This is the dragon's calling
Fear for the end of life
Witness the meteor's falling
Weilding the timeless knife
From your defiant ego
comes lasting transgression
Disrupting life's flow
Eternal love is passion
My heart is unforgiving, my hate is innocence
My life is never ending, may this be my fate
My heart is unforgiving, my hate is innocence
Judgement upon betrayal, bring me to my fate
Lies deforming your world, a song that hatred sings
Distrust destroying forms, time is passing you by
The path through the sky, on wings of reality
You'll learn the truth of, your dead philosophy
I hope to see you change, to grow and love
I hope to see you then, at your final destiny
Subjective experience is the only possession
This moment is all that you have
What do you die for?
Why do you hope to end?
There is no afterlife
Strive for immortality

As I Lie Down To Die

The stars are shining
Burning ever so bright
Through the mist, piercing
Illuminating the frost
My limbs, my heart, my eyes
The cold seeps in to me
The moon seems to rise
temptation; all is lost
The stars are shining
Burning ever so bright
The clouds begin to cover
Thin wisps of precious life
I seek a setting now
Of calmness and peace
I fall on nature's vow
This is the end of strife
As I lie down to die
My mind begins to ponder
I feel my warmth escaping
With every passing breath
As I lie down to die
I see beauty and wonder
My bones and skin, losing sense
I give myself to the world
There is more to life, I know
This is not the extent of being
I am one with all that I see
I know now the universe
There exists a certain passion
That cries for eternity to bless
What little did I then know
to enlist myself to folly
There is more to life, I can see
The black abyss dividing us
is nothing more than darkness
Destroyed by the light of love
Can you see the vast beauty?
We are all the universe
How cruel, to come to see
as only Death can converse
As I lie down to die
The spirit of life awakens in me
Losing life with a tearful cry
I am aware of life's beauty
As I lie down to die
The fire of the void surrounds me
My soul and sense, giving way
I realize the universe
My time is over
as a fraction of space
My mind is over
expanding into the void
Collective understanding
give way to thermodynamics
All life is over
Forever, fading away

In Memoriam
The life I left behind
In Memoriam
The victory that is mine
With chisel and fire
I sculpt and forge
Endure and forget
To create tomorrow
Take with you this lesson
You are not bound by history
Take away from me
That greatness can be had
Fight for your survival
Death creeps too quickly
Fight for your perfection
This life is all there is
