OUROBOROS CORPORATION
Distorted visions behind the stare
Erode the image of what you were
Sick morbid seeds of an evil plant
An egg deposed in the self you wear
A snake that grows deep inside of you
Its coils will close around your neck
Killing the light of your sacred will
(Its) poisonous bite carves the unholy seal
RIT:
Ouroboros corporation
The spider’s web in which you’re caught
Feeding on you since the day
You woke in life
In this world
“It’s everywhere and it’s everything
Its scales shine in the bark of trees
Its growl resounds in the breath of wind
Its forked tongue hits with (the) flash of lighting
A beast of power so great that if
You see it entire in just one look
It’d turn you in ashes in a single breath
The only thing you can do is sleep.
RIT
Distorted visions behind the stare
Erode the image of what you were
Sick morbid seeds of an evil plant
An egg deposed in the self you wear
A snake that grows deep inside of you
Its coils will close around your neck
Killing the light of your sacred will
(Its) poisonous bite carves the unholy seal
RIT
Don’t do anything stand still sleep and dream
Lay in the belly of the beast.

MIND PARASITES
Crawls inside you
Lite at night while
Doors are open
Cages Broken
Unprotected!
Black drops in your mind
Feed the demons
Of your own hell
See them taking form around your bed
Stealing every glimmer of your joy
They were here before us
They’ll be here till you feed’em
Greedy larvas sucking all your fears
Speaking through the media mouth
Invading your mind
RIT:
Trained dogs. Ruled by fear
Tigers in chains. No one leaves (lives?)
Carved out eyes. Crusced like grape.
Starving slaves. Blinded in cells.
Pitch black blood invades your eyes and ears
While you sleep trapped in the deepest dreams
The alien plant copies your face and form
Till your inner light shines no more
The copy of your being awakes
Takes all your life your place
While the world goes on and on…
RIT
They’re all around you
They hide in your place
Non chanches to fight them
No way to escape from them
No holy hands grab you
It’s up to you to stand
it’s up to you to wake
It’s up to you to rise

INFECTED COMMUNICATION
White worms swarming in your brain
Fat leeches feeding on your fears
Black flies infesting all the air
Settle and lay their eggs inside your eyes
Feel this sickness grow inside you
While invaders eat your brain
And your will grows weaker
The noose gets tighter around your neck
The leash gets shorter
Chains wrap your soul in an endless nightmare
No one wakes you because we’re all trapped in the same horrible dream
While flames devour your flesh
Foresee the door through which escape
Oneiric vision of a way out
A key hidden beyond the stare
RIT
The king of this world takes baths of blood
While you flounder from hell to hell
In search for an exit
You are unable to find here.
As flames grow highert
The noose gets tighter
RIT
As flames grow higher
The noose gets tighter
As flames grow higher
The noose gets tigther
As flames grow higher
The noose gets tighter
Your soul is fainting
The air Is over.

ALIEN DESEASE
It came from a distant desert. Its ways are twisted and dark
Its wears many rags and flags. It hides behind the eyes of empty shells
Mixing truth and lies. Building castles of illusions
Forging the golden chains. That rules masses and kings
And the contagion begins: Invade! Divide! Command!
Its coils are wrapped around every heart. Its scales are carved with lies
Its tongue speaks every language. Its voice is sweater than the sirens’ one
It talks af all your secret dreams. Brings you just anguish and fear
It whispers in rulers’ ear. Promising power and gold
And the contagion goes on: Invade! Divide! Command!
Centuries of prison made our blood get weaker
Till an ancient whisper speaks the word in your dreams
Memories of a past gone but not forgotten
Starts the fire that heals the alien black infection
When you see your enemy, serpent eyes start to watch every move you take
Till you sleep or look down, then their fangs bite you
Observes every day you live. it smells every breath you take
It rules the world that’s wrapped around you. Its agents are your closest
The only way to elude it is being invisible at all
And whisper words of fire in the ears of other prisoners
And the contagion begins: Invade! Divide! Command!
Camouflaged and hidden invisible and silent
A secret army moves its steps to heal the ancient disease
With weapons you’re unable to see with words you’re unable to hear
A secret army no chronicler ever chanted.
And the contagion goes on: Invade! Divide! Command!
Centuries of prison made our will grow stronger
Now the gates are open, all the chains are broken
Our blades: the sharpest. Our ways: the smartest
Penetrate your fortress. Reach the throne you stole us.
Blind to see your enemy, you won’t see when we’ll fill the shell of all your slaves
With the word you once hid breaking the key of dreams.

CARCOSA
Come on inside, little priest
to the right little priest
take the brides path
this is Carcosa
along the shore the cloud wave break
the twin suns sink behind the lake
the shadows lenghten in Carcosa
strange is the night where black stars rise
and strange moons circle to the skies
bit stranger is lost Carcosa
Hisses and whispers al around me
Telling I am lost in nowhere in Carcosa
Days of nothing days like lost dogs
looking for clues or for a sense
buliding a story out of this spiral
aiming for a blade to break this coils
song of my soul, my voice is dead
die thou unsung as tears unshead
shall dry and die in lost Carcosa

THE SUM OF ALL YOUR FEARS
Every step you moved every single breath
Every drop of sweat every drop of blood
Creates the armor you’ll need when you’ll step
Through the path of all your fears
It will meet you in the darkest cave
It will wear your face and voice:
RIT:
Come in drown in this swamp loose yourself
Forget dissolve feed us till nothing remains of you (remains of you)
Till nothing remains of you
Memories of past life now beset you
Mind parasites leeches crawl your soul
Burning chains from a life that’s no more
Start to carve your inner flesh:
RIT
All the time you lived
something tried to fade your light
Parasites in human form
Invaded your sacred silence
With the voice of your craving:
RIT
No voices
No guidance
No guardians
From the Skyes
Every step you moved every single breath
Every drop of sweat every drop of blood
Creates the armor you’ll need when you’ll step
Through the path of all your fears
RIT
No voices
No guidance
No guardians
From the Skyes

THE TRIUMPHAL MARCH OF NOTHINGNESS
Limping like the walking dead. Connected to fake knowledge
We invade the etheric plan. Vomiting the poison that feeds us
Descended from infected sphincters excreting false dogmas
In the name of which we bark like a herd
Slaves of equivocal words, backhanded polysemies
Tricks and allucinations Spread for us by The One Who Divides.
RIT:
Flames and chaos all around (the) psychosphere
Rising smoke till God closes his eyes
Pumping chaos inside human mind
Blind ourselves till every sense is lost
Weeping for freedom of being slaves
Claiming for money or promisquity
Embracing causes that are far from us
Hating a ghost that is all in our mind
Divided among ourselves
Divided inside of our Self
The fall now is just a matter of time
Mindless puppets blinded by fear
Just immediate needs t feed
And a Master to serve
Claiming ourselves as “free men”.
RIT
Our advance goes on
All divided we march
Partitioned in colours and flags
Technicolor ego-trip
While inside all is grey
While we walk as ants
With soldier’s devotion
Straight to the abyss.

THE CAVE
The time has come
You know it in your soul, for I am your soul
You cannot escape me you are puny you are small
You are nothing
A hollow shell a rusty trap that cannot hold me
I burn you. Burning you I flare! Hot and bright and fierce and beautiful
You cannot stop me not with with wine or vows or the weight of age!
You cannot stop me but still you try, still you run.
You try to drown me but your voice is weak.
I leave them behind me I leave it all behind me
I go to the dark place where I first met you
Before I learned what I am
I’m dying but I can’t die, I’m not finished yet
And you are not finished with me.
Then something shuffles out of sight
Something sucks in the stale air and hisses…
Gliding with ancient grace
Eyes gleaming untouched by love or joy or sorrow
Breath hot with the taste of dead and damned things
Shurely the fiercest survivor, the purest warrior
Glaring, hating, claiming me as his own

THE SHEPHERD AND THE SNAKE
Then I saw a young shepherd rolling on the ground
Suffocating while a black snake was tangling from its tongue
Never saw such a disgusting vision Pale was his young face
Distorted in pain Drunk with the wine of sickness
It crawled silently in his mouth while the man was sleeping
And it bite its tongue
RIT:
Bite! Bite him back! Tear his head out!
So I was crying from my inner self
My hate my horror my disgust mercy
All good and evil flowing out me in one single voice
My hand strongly tearing the tail of the black snake
Pulling on and on with desperate strength
As I continued telling the shepherd to bite
Shaking as if he was frozen the boy started to resist
Then found the strength to bite as I suggested him
To bite the beast back!
RIT
He bit as he’s never done vomiting black blood and poison
The snake was still shaking. Shaking on his chin weaker every second
Till the life abandoned his body
The shepherd stood up proud with a smile I’ve never seen
Spit out the head of the beast far away from him.
No more shepherd no more man!
Surrounded by light he was laughing
Lo brothers! I heard a laughter that wasn’t human
I miss that voice I’m thirsty now. Thirsty to hear it again.
Brave men seekers,
I ask you now if you know who was that lonely man
Which are them in which the blackest thing will crawl in the mouth?
