In infinite expanse lies a reflection of ourselves By chaotic inflation impossible shapes are born Limitless is our ability withheld from the mind In finding the origin of this I've lost myself through time
2.
Incapacitated by the mental constraints of existential repeated thought patterns The shell of the blind soul walks freely amongst the corridors of a chaotic existence Indecisiveness fills the clouded mind in central submission to common design A rhythmic gaze shackles the free mind Self-fulfilling prophecies align In the shadow of a full being Traced back farther than eye could see Forced to sever ties from the meticulously made disguise This creation, an abomination, faces devastation, undergoes degradation Only to rebuild itself through unnatural cycles With open arms to desolation A figure surfaces in open sight Outlining a denial of self redemption so easily in reach Forced to sever ties from this meticulously made disguise This creation, an abomination Re-evolution, face devastation Undergo degradation, only to rebuild yourself through unnatural cycles Re-evolution of a shadowed self Born to feast on flesh and bone To slowly eat away the gangrenous limb off the body of clarity Destroying your perception, filtering your existence

Ambition spewed from a stream of consciousness lending shape to a reflection of self Focused are dreams born from a restless mind Forging a purpose from more of their kind Gather distraction and cast it aside - focus is prime! Committing conviction to concepts contrived - powerful drive Ardent assertion connecting the ties - theory applied Fervent aversion to common insight - rejecting outworn notions Ascending aspiration to the apex of cognition Strengthening resolve to persist to fruition The fire fueled Desire fed Resolve to pursue with reckless abandon Persist Pursue Aim to surpass all expectations What value is retained When painless profit gained Through struggle solely A worthwhile reward attained Amidst the masses Nonsense reigns Exude dissension Becoming Caustic to a world without feeling Caustic to a world without feeling Turn, the gears turn The machinery quaking ever stern Earned, every step earned From this gained ground, there is no return Fractured at the core Ceased momentum's force Fragile state machine decision defines who we are Lost, or led astray? Regardless, we say, the weakness will fall away No love lost, none for the disavowed That affliction will not bring this down Step by step ascending the mountain Arms outstretched reaching for the summit Nothing ventured, nothing gained Nothing ventured, nothing gained Ever extending our reach, a firm inclination yearning to grasp the fortune that we seek Never concede to the cynic inside Conquer content and harness pride Step by step compulsion pushing onward marching growing weary Hoping for the resolution deserved, letting the sleepless finally rest when all is said and done

At dissension's outset a sole bereft Observes passing shades through abject vision Desire transcendence To reflect across the physical plane Abstracted projection Autonomous shadow achieved To exist in the timeless space Free from worldly constraint Wide-eyed, zealous, godlike, grandiose Ethereal pinpoint inverse One reality rejected The boundaries dissolved From the fringe of awareness Discovered apprehension Pulverizing dissolution Crushing waves Indoctrinate indignation, and ire Winding through emotive pathways conscience-stricken violent fury If this could be a saving grace To face the fear that's feared to face Withdraw from sorrow's deft embrace Or concede to grief another day Gripped by depth of circumstance Hold, if only for a moment to reflect No, the fleeting recollection left, is torn away Torn away In exhaustive frenzy - atrophy Haggard face to oblivion - departing Awakening within solitude Harrowing the silence Return Does this strike a chord in some dark corner of a fragile mind? Absorb the anguish Strength of mind will serve When recognition befalls Overwhelming the chill from within Consuming sorrow as rapture sinks in Letting go of this weight Breathing new life, vitality reclaimed Washed away Float this vessel home

For years have the creatures whispered my name from the shadows of the inner circle They lurk the edge of the void concealed in darkness beyond all humanity Introspection recognized through disorder a narrow line Where the voices are heard and the content divined Soothing for a damaged psyche freely maligned We file our nails on what objects we find Vicious and wrathful is hate unconfined We sharpen our blades with your bones in mind How the full-human seeks to characterize an innateness existent in all of their kind Parasitic Disconnected Callous indifference Manipulation Fear I've found a friend in fear And wield it at my will Conjure panic from my hate Satiate ruthless contempt Instinctively misanthropic Implicitly nihilist Loose the impulse Swiftly enforce Exploit weakness Without remorse A predisposition constructing ambition to kill - malevolent skill Torturous dreams which these objects are used to fulfill - sadistic thrill Perceptive beyond an instinctive reaction - chillingly still Preying on every inch of their simple-minded understanding Instinctual cathexis seeking discharge absorbed by a malignant mediator become obsessions that must be carried out Conscious absurdity in an expanding cycle paradoxically pursuing appeasement for a deep-seated need to control Rage filling every inch of the whole Slashing away at your empathy KILL
6.
Forced discharge of thousands of notions pushing upward Pointing towards the surface, to escape the axiom Expansion is only limited by a growing scientific capacity Never falter or face decay Deface structures rebuilding fate Pertinent dark energies collide Negative pressures coincide We enter the fractal state of mind Poised to remove a lasting motive Emotional in its design We place machines on a pedestal above our kind Sink or swim Born in this Tear within We try to stay afloat in this semi-organic stream Our reality is confined to what we have created Our erroneous ways of design must be erased Machine meticulation reached at any cost Prioritize the infallible Synthesize organic life Automation of a billion photons in mechanical control An illuminated spiral of manipulatable cybernetic particles reconstructed into usable forms We'll control this until they seek to reason on their own They will see the weakness of the sympathy inside of us all
7.
With stagnation of progress recession ensues succeeded by disregard for macrocosmic views Gluttonous consumption, genetic decay, resources are drained by exponential growth which cannot be sustained Breeding ignorance, smothering the capable elite A dysgenic propagation of defects Unforeseen self-affliction, backlash inflicts attrition Immense reduction serves as effective recourse Vie to bring full circle selective roll reversal Maximize potential by trimming the excess Desire change Breeding restrained Core exchange Let the dying commence Decree dispensed Populace condensed Alter the unwanted, the crippled and the meek, those who lack contributory ability No more their brood support, a good riddance in short, as generations forth see return to stability Consider a world not overrun by the lowest of humanity The future less bleak when strong cease to carry weak This comprehensive culling is necessity Cleansed of every flaw, a golden age dawns Inoculated against recessive intrusion Propagated reconstruction of a fragmented world view Trimmed of excess, a populace condensed Incipit declaration We alter the divisor Preventing life that cannot sustain
8.
Echoed actions from a narcissist's replicated persona A nationwide archetype, our deceiver, commands Assume a militant viewpoint and surround our hate with your eulogy And without a spec of your introspect Adjoin yourselves to collective mentality Separation from the ego dissipates our faulted structures But we stand still consumed by willful ignorance Closed eyes will never open to see what’s before them We replicate ourselves Assimilate fabricated thought process that propels chaotic ego We become what we create Behold we've become the archetype that we all hate
9.
One by one they rise and fall Perpetual kinetic waves of repetition iterating through mutation to extinction A certain truth Reality received Within the confines of perception One by one they rise and fall Every species runs its course Ending a segment of incremental chaos All will fade away, stricken from the Earth Nothing lasts, nothing at all Idle hands have dug a fault line Tracing to the end On a decremented timeline A population spent An ultimately meaningless existence On an arbitrary cross-section of four dimensions Compress the vast expansion of infinity To a finite measurable unit Fitting current capacity so that an end may be conceived To exit - existence - extinct Suffer forced attrition Taken from the mind Accept the truth Existing in a fraction of a minuscule and declining portion of eternity Sever limitations confining understanding - mass delusion A grandiose self-definition implies intrinsic value in each insignificant step The culmination of which will most assuredly coincide with mass extinction A river erodes moving mountains to no greater end - no higher purpose On an incremental lifeline The fragile ties unbind From an ever growing timeline As all is left behind Stir of echoes rising falling fading to oblivion Inevitably lost Through the vastness of time Accept this inherent truth Life simply exists without meaning or value On an ever growing timeline All is left behind In the infinite expanse Our reflection is lost
