I COFFIN
We came to this world feet first in dirt
Those promises you were told, will never unfold
This search for closure will always end up with harsh failure
This life, a burden given at birth
Born in a coffin / born halfway rotten
Deception
Calculating, cold
Welcomes you into the fold
Rejection
Scars that never fade
The deal already made
I will stay here - watching you die
From the womb to your doom
A sermon for those with no tomorrow

II THE GREAT FIRE
Expiate the essence of suffering
Until you start to truly feel
This life, this very existence is an experiment through ache
Catalyze fatality to ignite the Great Fire
Catalyze pain to feed the flame
Every second is another log brought to the stake
Built it high so you could watch me burn from afar
Let my torching body be your guide through the night
Let my screams be the answer you were looking for
Let me light the path that will lead you to some kind of closure
Until the flames die and let you rot in total bleakness

III SHADOW WALKER
Every morning is the holder of future deceptions
Every dawn is a reminder of what awaits when the sunset shows
Eternal cycle of chasing something you can’t even describe
Something that’s lurking in the shadow
Dwelling in the twilight, where night and days seems to make one
Slowly we forgot who we were
End this journey where light seems to dodge us – I wish it never started
May this night never end — and maybe the sun will forget us
I choose to walk in the shadow
Every dawn, every smile, every time something seems to shine
Is only to show where the descent is
Every dawn, every smile, every time something seems to shine
I choose to walk in the shadow

IV CLOSURE
Gasping for a satisfying answer
Searching for closure
Searching for some kind of inner peace
Glorify the voices that will ease their minds
And light the burden of their existence
No need for truth, no need for logic
Just wash away the pain for a brief moment of peace
If this world wants you dead, it will
I’ll promise you
Digested by reality
Regurgitate the nightmare you create

V ECHOES
This has come to an end
Echoes of the past are reminders of eternal failure
A growing thought of no tomorrow
Feeds our sorrows
A pitch black vision for days to come
Holds the cold blue hand of your fate
Put yourself out of this misery

Vi BOTTOM FEEDER
Begging to reach the surface
Looking for a glimpse of light
No helping hand to save you from this fluid coffin
But I promise I will stay here with you as you choke on your own failures
I will keep you close to me as you gasp to find peace with the past
Deadweight — you, slowly losing grips on sanity
Deadweight — submerged by your own mistakes in an abyssal miasma
Bottom feeder

VII PENITENCE
Sweet misery
You’ve consumed me whole from the inside out
I’ve been devoured by your will
Every single part of my body is yours
I don’t live in this mass of flesh and skin anymore
You’ve built your kingdom upon my bleached bones
A cathedral for sorrows and torments
You’ve set your kingdom among my bleached bones
PENITENCE
A sanctum where aches flourish
This hollow carcass you’ve made your house with

VIII PILLARS
Death, sickness and greed — the 3 pillars of mankind
A flagrant lack of empathy for everyone around me
Absolute hatred for my peers
Only disgust for them
I could watch this world burn for a lifetime
This world is crumbling like loose earth
Leaving beneath our feet the memories of days we’ll never know
Hope is long forgotten
Our dreams are asleep in a shroud made of centuries of mistakes
Hope to see our species collapse as quickly as it plundered its own world
The only tree we’ve reached the top of is the one where we will hang ourselves

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music.
