Roaming Creature

The land was once teeming with life
Aeons of progress and invention
Constructions that touched the sky
The people felt they were immortal
Wisdom beyond reasoning
Held within its mind
Power none can comprehend
Its journey is endless
Still it marches on
Bountiful land and beautiful seas
Their wonder now long gone
A wasteland in their place
To be reborn in glorous silence
An image flickers in its memory
Of the ones that came before
They thought that they were doing good
Tor this world
They gathered in council
Deciding their peoples fate
They thought they could prevent their doom
Cosmic dust
Is all they had ever been
They held their heads to the light and claimed this land
Time collapses all
Death comes to us all
Unstopable Unthinkable
Life is forever you are not
Wisdom beyond reasoning
Held within its mind
Power none can comprehend
Its journey is endless
Still it marches on
Marching
Striding
Walking forever
Never to halt
Even after everything
humanity achieved
the earth does not remember
You're nothing
nothing

Meaningless
05:21
|

I'm growing weary
Of suffering
Mind will decay
What was once full
And gleaming alive
It withers slowly
Living for what
What lies beyond
Spiralling down
Nothing lies beyond
Nothing will await you
Only darkness there
Dust created immeasurable time
Coming full circle
Dust begets dust
Our selfish obsessive train of thought
Can we really be the centre
Of the universe
I'm growing wear
Of feeling pain
A force I comprehend
Yet knowledge escapes
How can this be
Being of coincidence
Conceived of dust
Power holds no ground
Knowledge leads only to death
To fade away
To become what we all were
Our selfish obsessive train of thought
Can we really be the centre
Of the universe
Meaningless
You're made of fucking dust
Your life is meaningless
Our lives are meaningless
All life is meaningless

Husk

Husk
After an eternity of building
Creation and progression
All this time unaware
You’ve grown weak your life is gone
Husk
Once great you’re now a shell
The creatures that you once
Supported are all gone
You’re worthless now
Husk of what you were
Drained of what you are
Drift on
Into oblivion
Always
Countless distance outwards
World not yet used up
Life moves on unknowing
Insignificant
You are a husk

Cosmic Dust
10:45
|

At birth singular entity
No light no dark
Unthinkable Emptiness
To grow outwards
Cosmic dust forming all
Reaching out
All things walk in its path
Yet we are blind
Cosmic dust created everything
A force of power
Unseen by all
Our eyes they lie
Showing colour in the world
We see so many
Yet there is only one
All the same at birth
And at death
All dust formed
And broken down
Disgusting acts of betrayal and hatred
Punished for difference yet all the same
Self apointed superiority
Worthless all the same
As it grew travelling on
Dispersing its load it left a seed
A gift to all to be returned at death
Cosmic dust forming all
Reaching out
All things walk in its path
Yet we are blind
Cosmic dust created everything
A force of power
Unseen by all
Our eyes they lie
Showing colour in the world
We see so many
Yet there is only one
All the same at birth
And at death
All dust formed
And broken down
After all is gone
In our eyes
We no longer exist
Over is our time
Cosmic dust forming all
Reaching out
All things walk in its path
Yet we are blind
Cosmic dust created everything
A force of power
Unseen by all
Dust of our past
Travels on
Forever through
The universe
Countless time
After humanity is dead
Our lives our memories
Lost yet still we explore
We all are dust
Our lives mean only
What they do while alive

After The End
10:38
|
|||
Lying facing the precipice
Breathing slowly soon to be gone
I reflect on all memories of times before
In these final moments into the murky twilight I walk
or so I should believe yet what can be seen
What can remain? Only a shell I’m no longer here
Eclipsed in shadows the future will remain
Certainty in but one truth
For the ones left behind
Never to be learned
Never to be found
Knowledge comes only in death
To know yet not learn
To End every thought
To reach the last moment
Embrace it
For peace cannot be found
In lies of eternity
True relief true clarity
In darkness
After the end
Nothing remains
Lack of thought lack of feeling
Peace will come through the end of it all
No pain no fear
Born out of dust
Journey through life
Toward the last destination
Peace will come through the end of it all
No pain no fear
Run
Try to hide
Escape
The future that lies
Hope
Underlies
The futile attempt
To outwit time
Helpless
Drifting
Trying to understand
Finding a reason
To be what i’ve always known
Learning
Realisation
Understanding truth
Nothing is there
After the end
Finality
After all I’ve heard
After all the lies
Clarity has come
In fading light
After the end
Nothing remains
Lack of thought lack of feeling
Peace will come through the end of it all
No pain no fear
Born out of dust
Journey through life
Toward the last destination
Peace will come through the end of it all
No pain no fear
Weakening slowly
Withering away
Fading into
everlasting darkness
No fear no fighting
I welcome it now
To feel the sweet release
The Embrace of nothing
Run
Try to hide
Escape
The future that lies
Hope
Underlies
The futile attempt
To outwit time
Helpless
Drifting
Trying to understand
Finding a reason
To be what i’ve always known
Learning
Realisation
Understanding truth
Nothing is there
After the end finality

The Struggle
05:06
|
|||
Through an empty forest I walk
Reflecting on the past
The work to achieve all
Yet to be lost by the end
What is the reason
To carry on this struggle
If all is lost, in vein
Why should we wait
For time to decay
For pain to come
To suffer
We're all the same
At birth at death
Dust before and dust to come
What lies between
The purpose we seek
We're all the same
At birth at death
Dust before and dust to come
What lies between
The purpose we seek
I come to a clearing
Light filters in
Darkness bleeds and fades away
Finally I see
Yet still we suffer
To form our legacy
Betray and harm for what will matter
Only until our end
We're all the same
At birth at death
Dust before and dust to come
What lies between
The purpose we seek
We're all the same
At birth at death
Dust before and dust to come
What lies between
The purpose we seek
I come across
A path finally
Of my creation it is
Follow towards destiny

Traveller

I am the bringer of your final breath
Leading you to your oblivion
Understand your time on earth is now done
Come forth accept your fate
You cannot feel the air
Flowing into your lungs
Lack of sensation brings fear
Do you understand now
Deaths icy grip has come for you
It does not wait for any man
It will not consier who you are
It takes away all that you are
Yet you will bring new life
Out of your death
Your body broken down
Becomes the earth
Your final gift
To carry on
Travel with me to your last desination
Leaving your life behind
Soon to be nothing as all have before
Legacy only in dust
You cannot feel the air
Flowing into your lungs
Lack of sensation brings fear
Do you understand now
Traveller take you
Away from the earth
Away from the pain
Away from the fear
To finally fade away
To leave the world behind
Traveller take you
To give back dust
