Fathom Infinite Depth - Archspire.mp3

[00:01:00] cough cough
[00:02:00]There is a pit I may have dug within one single frozen moment.
[00:03:00]In it lurks a haunting endless multitude of vile incarnate.
[00:05:00]We now are linked,I have become it's counter-part,
[00:06:00]Its mindless pawn.
[00:07:00]Relentlessly racing encircling curse.
[00:08:00]Blistering, this unrelenting becoming to excavate
[00:10:00]The rancid soil that lay upon the artifact.
[00:12:00]Why is my hand gone?
[00:16:00]Constant begging, Pleading, Screaming.
[00:17:00]I attempt to reason with the recess.
[00:18:00]Fusing with the elder's vision, to see as it sees.
[00:20:00]Does it hear me? For I now hear it.
[00:21:00]This pit the past, and I the present.
[00:22:00]Deep behind my eyes we merge as one.
[00:23:00]This tunnel is the retina of the Ancients eye.
[00:24:00]Spewing forth from it's dark chasm
[00:26:00]The entangled,deranged,Constant vile constructs of the onyx.
[00:28:00]What lay beneath my eyes, exhumed from evermore.
[00:33:00]Our minds unable to measure
[00:36:00]How minute yet immense the grasp of this vacuous gash.
[00:40:00]Excavating the pits innards
[00:41:00]Bore an object that of which I craved possession.
[00:43:00]Slime,Reflective.
[00:45:00]I reach down to grab it, It eats my hand.
[00:46:00]Leaves my limb dripping.
[00:47:00]A taste of what awaits.
[00:52:00]I will take it to my casket, this incessant mesh of madness.
[00:54:00]My son and wife, and hand, and mind have left me
[00:56:00]Incineration of my sanity leading me closer to death,
[00:58:00]Yet I must illuminate its fathomless depth.
[01:52:00]Emanating forces from this unearthly twisted retinal orifice,
[01:55:00]Drag me down at night to reveal
[01:57:00]The awful dwellings of it's depths below.
[02:00:00]Crepuscular visions of vastness haunting me.
[02:02:00]Trapping me. Taunting me. Draining me.
[02:03:00]Slithering liquid breathing.
[02:05:00]Black ooze leaking from my wounded limb.
[02:07:00]Insatiable, it's gluttony to be fed.
[02:09:00]I want to wake up.
[02:11:00]I awake to find I'm staring
[02:13:00]Oblivious into the pit that I have dug.
[02:15:00]Revolted yet I cannot turn away.
[02:49:00]Man's attempt to fathom the infinite depth, lurking within finite matter.
[02:57:00]Man's attempt to fathom the infinite depth, lurking within finite matter.
[03:04:00]Man can't fathom.
[03:47:00]Fuelling my crippling phobia of infinity.
[03:51:00]Consuming all within it's potent grasp.
[03:53:00]After tasting my hand it demands more and more flesh.
[03:57:00]It sucks in stray birds from the withered grey sky.
[04:01:00]In fever I erode my fears. Digging ever deeper still.
[04:02:00]As past, present and future collide,
[04:04:00]What remained of my mind is now crawling away.
[04:06:00]With the one hand that I have left,
[04:08:00]I wield the shovel that digs beyond earth.
[04:13:00]Through the dirt. Through my eyes.
[04:14:00]Through the worms. Through the world.
[04:14:00]As it stares deep into me, I respond with equal enquiry.
[04:16:00]Demented sycophantic liquid doppelgangers
[04:17:00]Leak out to our surface,
[04:18:00]In search of life to feed into the gape.
[04:19:00]Taking over the world we know, as I join the world below.
[04:21:00]Merging with the spiralling retina of the mind's eye.
[04:25:00]Altered, I face all my hells
[04:26:00]Inside this pit I can't crawl out.
[04:31:00]Man's attempt to fathom the infinite depth, lurking within finite matter.
[04:38:00]Man's attempt to fathom the infinite depth, lurking within finite matter.
[04:45:00]Man's attempt to fathom the infinite depth, lurking within finite matter.
[04:52:00]Man's attempt to fathom the infinite depth, lurking within finite matter.
[04:49:00]Man kind
[05:02:00]Past the timeless tunnel awaits
[05:03:00]Life in mass-less hyper state.
[05:04:00]Wake!
