lyrics
A meteor rips clear across our skies
Bringing forth the death of all life
This distant traveler meets its journeys end
Bringing judgement as it swiftly descends
Wandering through these clouds made of ash
Struggling to maintain control
Mental capacities under collapse
Witnessing the final days of man
For all these years we reigned supreme
Returning now to celestial debris
The food chain collapses under vast scorched skies
This climate shift condemns us to die
Foraging through remnants of mankind
Scavenge the relics of our time
Retracing the footsteps of our past
Trying to salvage what is left
Balance is stricken from our mother Earth
Violence conceived our universe
So it will end as it began
Ready now for a second chance
This loneliness brought on by isolation
Maddens you to the point of craving death
Traumatized with no apparent destination
You soon pursue the only option you see left
The pain of life exceeding fear of death
Heading for this glowing luminescence
Its gravity accretes a mass of churning souls
This single point is the origin of creation
It’s where it all began and where we shall return
Awakening as an enlightened apparition
Conscious of the truth once obscured from our view
Drifting from sordid realms of the living
Aware of the purpose you subconsciously knew
We’re all a disease
In an omnipresent being
A cancer inside of a god
Its defenses striking at us
Know that everything must serve a purpose even if that means to consume and destroy
And you’re a part of this infection; an agent of chaos on a quest to restore the darkness…
Bringing forth the death of all life
This distant traveler meets its journeys end
Bringing judgement as it swiftly descends
Wandering through these clouds made of ash
Struggling to maintain control
Mental capacities under collapse
Witnessing the final days of man
For all these years we reigned supreme
Returning now to celestial debris
The food chain collapses under vast scorched skies
This climate shift condemns us to die
Foraging through remnants of mankind
Scavenge the relics of our time
Retracing the footsteps of our past
Trying to salvage what is left
Balance is stricken from our mother Earth
Violence conceived our universe
So it will end as it began
Ready now for a second chance
This loneliness brought on by isolation
Maddens you to the point of craving death
Traumatized with no apparent destination
You soon pursue the only option you see left
The pain of life exceeding fear of death
Heading for this glowing luminescence
Its gravity accretes a mass of churning souls
This single point is the origin of creation
It’s where it all began and where we shall return
Awakening as an enlightened apparition
Conscious of the truth once obscured from our view
Drifting from sordid realms of the living
Aware of the purpose you subconsciously knew
We’re all a disease
In an omnipresent being
A cancer inside of a god
Its defenses striking at us
Know that everything must serve a purpose even if that means to consume and destroy
And you’re a part of this infection; an agent of chaos on a quest to restore the darkness…

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too.
