DARKNESS CONSUMED Mind’s eye lies And evil old spies The sun isn’t setting The veterans forgetting An ocean between us All time evaporates …despair R/ The Dawn Cries A Vision Dies Consumed in Sorrow The Moon is hollow Barbwire memories, shatter the will A prophet named ‘Daniel’, the ‘viper’ he’ll kill Temples are ruined, old mystic is shunned Prayer for a warrior, weep for a ‘Son’ Caravan of pilgrims, storm takes the day Plight of the hopeless, for madness they pray Tomorrow is fading, we all lost the way R/ A humble maiden, the ‘world’ she ‘assumes’ The warning of angels, all darkness consumed An evil ruler, a child he would kill So many innocents, their blood was spilled From the desert, a voice in the night The earth is ‘moving’, they saw a great Light The dawn is weeping, the death of the night…

PONTIFF’S NIGHTMARE The earth is fractured The moon is falling Old ‘wolf-man’ is captured The Cardinal’s calling Clare is weeping Poor fool leaves the city Rich men are feasting For the lost- “no pity” Where’s Brother Sun? Behold Sister Moon. A Pontiff’s Nightmare The crowd has no face All noblemen beware The blood they will taste The forest is crying A dying man waits The old ‘king’ is lying The lowly are great A dream for the lonely A dirge for a beast Poverello Marks in the hands Blood in the side A fractured old man With something to hide The night doves are praying Royal Wolf and his pack Mother Earth they’re slaying The ‘Dawn’ they attack Weep, Brother Sun Mourn, Sister Moon

Blood of Mystics Face on fire, no soul Heart of stone, no life Blessed madness takes hold The blood of mystics, mystery has died Memories of UR, Patriarchs and lies Shame destroys a town, lion’s den is cold Fate is ever blind, stories for the old Visions of an Empire, a nation in flames Deceitful old men, embrace the blood games Prayer for the wounded, innocence betrayed An old prophet seeks, new hope for the dawn Silence consumes them, a saviour is gone Cold tomb for a king, the night shows its face Traitors are hiding, as they fall from grace The place of the skull, the darkness will fall Face on fire, no soul Heart of stone, no life Blessed madness takes hold

SHADOW REVELATION “Behold” Cry of a dying horseman The shadows reveal a lie Night porter fears an omen “…there’s nothing, it’s in the mind…” Inmates from sorrow flee (Such suffering, so often seen) Daniel is out of time Traitor will feast on crime The shipyard is on fire For saints they build a pyre The air is filled with rage A lion fears a sage Behold Where is this love of God… …when deception they all applaud? The fall of some master race A chapter ends in disgrace Not willing to face the crowd A wise man wears a shroud It’s never about a ‘mission’ Instead, behold a vision Behold

SALEM VIGIL 04:51
SALEM VIGIL Judgement day comes Find the ‘witches’ “Justice spares none” Self-righteous bitches Purple heart glows The Master knows The dawn is far… Salem vigil—purify souls Innocence lost—stories untold Blood of martyrs—voice of angels Old dream shattered—selling fables The dawn is far… Salem vigil—bloodthirsty fools Praying for death—“slaughter the mule” Weeping ‘harlots’—insane vicar A legend born—a village scorned
6.
THE CRY OF SIMEON Time bleeds into oblivion “Mother, behold your son…” Hatred dies on a tree Hear the cry of Simeon Slave or free? Visions obscene Jacob has lied A nation dies Beggars and Queens Nothing is clean Chorus: What is your sign? Cancel all mimes Master of Dreams Suffering unseen Where is the mind? Horrors we find

about

BLEEDING RAVEN Toronto, Ontario

An experiment initiated by Dean Mason of "Gnostic Gorilla" to explore a more abrasive/aggortech type project. Some of the tracks could be called doom-tech while others almost have a trance feel with some noisecore sentiments here and there. Yeah, it's very noisy and almost disturbing. That was the plan. ... more
