Poesy Rider Croyez-le ou non, j'ai écouté cet album en intégralité, et sans interruption ! Si, si, je vous assure ! Bon, d'accord, j'avoue que j'ai pensé à deux ou trois reprises à appuyer sur pause, histoire de souffler un peu. J'ai même prié à un moment pour qu'il y ait une coupure de courant, trouvant ainsi le prétexte idéal... mais non ; d'une traite vous dis-je ! Le pire dans tout ça, c'est que je ne regrette même pas. Incorrigible le type ! Favorite track: Void.

Monuments 07:48
Breathless we awaken As wretched monuments of human pestilence Draped with sickness and defeat we stand in disbelief Mere shadows of what used to be This hollow eminence we once embodied This frail Earth that stood beneath us Now lies motionless as carrion A relic laced with vacuity and despair Inhaling a once limitless beauty Drenched with flames in the wake of our own pitiful arrogance Are we all that’s left? Are we the sole heirs of this grave we used to call a home? This frail Earth that stood beneath us A relic laced with vacuity and despair Inhaling a once limitless beauty Left to drown within this incalculable void This scorched epitaph, transcending the limitless dawn We stand transfixed in odious lamentation An ocean of misery engulfs us We are the endless We are the end We are the endless We are the heirs
2.
Isolation 03:45
Confined within this desiccant husk This godforsaken artefact of what once stood A sutra of isolation and absence We have become the thrall of famine and drought The Earth that we once enslaved has fallen Consumed by our own insatiable starvation Our focus shifts To ingest the weak and the inanimate Those who cannot resist We turn to our own fragile veins Drinking deep the arterial libation Dissecting the lesser among us Spanning beyond this infinite horizon Sustenance lies in deficit Excise the feast locked within the flesh Death of the weak to feed the strong We are the scavengers of our own mortality Isolation Flocking like vultures to feed on our own skin Where sustenance lies in deficit We have become the thrall of absence
3.
Ω 04:02
Lost inside these fractured circles of sleep A dissonant and frail departure from this motionless void This nebulous vacuity we called our home An oracle of false hope is revealed to one among us Before us he stands, weak at the knees Preaching a hollow exhortation of forgiveness and paradise In exchange for our repentance and divine exaltation To the ‘Alpha and Omega’ that left us to rot under this riven sky That left us to succumb to the vile cessation that awaits us We are given a second chance to turn to the Almighty One To live forever in utopia Entwined in our irrational gaze This cursed gospel is unfurled And we, the church The unhearing progenies of human pestilence Writhing in a mercurial hysteria Arise as one body in rebellion For this vitriolic sermon You will die by our hands Your words will catch in your throat as you hang
4.
Terrifying visions coalesce before our eyes Wraiths born from infernal sickness, consuming our flesh We are disciples of insomnia and delusion Our limitless thirst Quenched only by this sanguine deluge This arterial effusion spilled forth from beneath our frail skin Saturated with disease and pestilence Rationality, draped with hysteria Turns to dust in our shaking hands In harrowing seizures of lunacy we recoil Convulsions of relapse into transcendent vehemence Aversion to light and fear of the darkness engulf our minds Plagued by nonexistence Apparitions, hallucinations Leading us down into a nauseating hostility Inanimate we stand as shadows As this sickness permeates our lifeless bodies These motionless pillars of violence and obsession These bodies are no longer our own Whispers of vivid aberration Spun forth through layers of wilting flesh and funereal despair
5.
Carrier 09:09
The emergence of an exquisite fallacy Convulsing as it rises like smoke from the fire From within our writhing multitude a new oracle is birthed Drenched with delusion and desperation beyond measure Ascending above our weary heads A shattered discourse spewed forth from the lungs of divine Prophecies of renewal and reconstruction Born of undying delusion Falling like rain upon our wretched ears We stand debilitated beneath this endless torrent of divination Stricken in a nauseating unison we follow like lambs to slaughter Transfixed by every word From the harrowing lips of delusion Radiating like a plague of locusts The carrier of our salvation, spewing forth a new doctrine Lifting a wrenching threnody in worship to the endless sky To deify the undying sky A desperate sacrifice From the harrowing lips of delusion Radiating like a plague of locusts In a tragic reverie of deliverance from this listless carrion we inhabit Prayers for divine providence and redemption Lifting from our desiccant tongues to the unhearing god of the skies Our bodies, draped in famine and ash Riddled with the unhealing scars of our thirst Our inhuman futility raised in a vile offering In our vain exertions of praise We are worthless
6.
Immersion 04:00
In vehement desperation for deliverance from this excruciating misery Our voices, ulcerated and wracked with thirst Like fountains of blood reaching towards the heavens Returning as void before the altar Mother and infant are bound in ritual Nails driven through pristine flesh as they lay Our dust veils their mournful stare As their harrowing lamentation is smothered by soil Buried awake in an exquisite sacrifice Drowning immersed beneath our dying earth Breath slowly fading, encased in sediment Motionless and silent beneath As we wait in woeful expectation Our eyes are fixed on the inanimate skies In fearful reverence prayers arise From our cracked lips Trembling in endless despair As a mothers muffled screams ring out in our ears, deafening What have we done?
7.
Void 04:18
We stand, pierced, in unending anguish Our futile invocation falls As dissonant skies remain soundless and inanimate Returning void to our listless bodies Drenched in arterial nectar of the innocent Covering our frail skin like the rain We are filled with measureless despondency We are as one with the dust of the ground Silent hymns of absolution and regret spill from our open throats Despite everything we remain encased in this empty shell of a world Decaying in ethereal unison with the void Left as lifeless shadows, wracked with pestilence Lost within inhuman convulsions of undying misery Forsaken and left to rot Beneath this wretched empyrean This nameless voiceless god Insatiable, unattainable, hanging just out of reach We are left as shadows
8.
Altars 04:00
We have become one with this emptiness The hollow image of limitless decay Consumed with despair Unfailing, unending hopelessness Our desperate prayer and human sacrifice Proved insufficient in the eyes of the silent sky Hanging above our heads Motionless, paralysed Left in ruin on this empty shell This husk, wretched and ethereal In a soundless discord we stand desolate This dead earth mourns beneath us Trapped in this cursed isolation Transfixing our lifeless souls We will not survive Our only hope for redemption lies in the cessation of man The welkin hangs above our weary heads in endless silence One final sacrifice to bring divine salvation As the flames of this funeral pyre rise over our listless empty bodies Our prayers, wracked with mortal despair, raised to the voiceless sky Return to us unheard
9.
Closure 07:33
In violent seizures of unending desperation As mankind dissolves into the void Monuments to our own frailty Waiting inanimate for a god without a voice We sing, breathless, for our final absolution With prayers to the insatiable empyrean These flames climb and lick my blistered skin The vile prayers of my fellow man lifted up to the unhearing sky Their voices slowly dissipating as their bodies succumb Their flesh receding and limbs wilting under this sea of consuming fire Until the only sound that remains is my own breathe dissolving My own heartbeat slowing down In the jarring silence of this monumental failure My lips utter a soundless atonement to the God I once knew As my skin withers and bones return to dust Grace finds me here, as my final breath departs I’m ready to come home
