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 05:30
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 04:36
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?
